Last year, President Donald Trump issued Executive Order 14199 to withdraw the US from and end funding to certain United Nations organizations and to review support to other international globalist organizations.

That Order directed Secretary of State to conduct a review of all international intergovernmental organizations of which the US is a member and provides any kind of funding or other support, and all conventions and treaties to which the US is a party, to determine which ones are contrary to the interests of the US. 

After reviewing the Secretary of State's findings and deliberating with his cabinet, President Trump determined it is contrary to the interests of the US to remain a member of, participate in, or otherwise provide support to 66 different organizations.

The organizations include U.N.-related agencies, commissions and advisory panels focused on climate change, labor, migration and other woke / DEI issues.

"The Trump Administration has found these institutions to be redundant in their scope, mismanaged, unnecessary, wasteful, poorly run, captured by the interests of actors advancing their own agendas contrary to our own, or a threat to our nation's sovereignty, freedoms, and general prosperity," Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement.

The Executive Order withdraws the US from the following:

Should we first define what exactly are, and aren't, "interests of the US", and how that was determined BEFORE we take any actions??? Asking for a friend.

The UN don’t do what they are supposed to do and they only want money from us. We should’ve cut ties with them before now.
