The UN headquarters is then bulldozed and given to the City of New York.

Unfortunately for those of us who would like to drive the UN out of our country, the land it occupies was donated to the UN by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. The land the UN occupies technically does not belong to the United States, but to the United Nations. The complex is technically extraterritorial by treaty. However, we pay somewhere near a third of the UN's budget, so if there is a way we can legally discontinue our "assessment," then maybe the parasites will leave of their own accord.

The problem for the UN is they have spent all the funding to be used for maintaining the building. It is literally falling down and will cost billions to fix. Meanwhile the UN has been looking for an alternative space to go while the repairs are completed. Telll them to go to one of their other headquarters. When they leave, condemn the building and bulldoze it. Turn the property into a park or a parking lot. Both would be better use of the land.

Seems to me I remember there is something called Imminent Domain. Maybe we need a big parking lot, Maritime building, New Bridge, or ANYTHING that would necessitate taking over the land.At the end of the day, the land belongs to the USA.
