The US should leave the UN and evict it from New York

The United Nations is a cesspool of antisemitism and authoritarianism and runs counter to everything the United States stands for. It is well past time to defund it and evict it from its headquarters in New York.
The U.N. is notoriously antisemitic, singling out Israel for criticism more than Hamas, the Chinese Communist Party, Russia, Venezuela, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and all other human rights abusers combined. The best that the organization could do is hold a Security Council vote on a resolution affirming that Israel can protect itself and its civilians from the genocidal terrorists of Hamas, and even then, that vote failed because China and Russia used their automatic veto to tank it.

To make matters even worse, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian then went to the floor of the U.N. General Assembly in New York to threaten the U.S. “I say it frankly to American statesmen,” Amir-Abdollahian said. “We don’t welcome the expansion of war in the region, but if the genocide in Gaza continues, they won’t be spared from this fire.”
That is a threat from Iran, the country that helps fund and support Hamas terrorists, toward the U.S. being made on U.S. soil with the U.N.’s megaphone. So, why exactly is it that Republicans and Democrats alike continue to tolerate the farce that is the U.N. and fund it to the tune of billions of dollars every year? U.S. taxpayers provide some 20% of the U.N.’s annual budget and doled out $12.5 billion in 2021 for what? Russia and China to have automatic vetoes and Iran to make threats against Americans?

The U.N. is a scam, and it is one that the U.S. should quit paying into. No more American taxpayer dollars should fund its bloated terrorist-sympathizing bureaucracy. And it is well past time for the U.S. to revoke the U.N.’s special territorial privileges and evict its corrupt, anti-American leadership from its headquarters in New York. If the U.N. wants to favor China and Russia by allowing them to keep their automatic vetoes and win seats on the “Human Rights Council,” it can go set up shop in Beijing or Moscow instead.
Every day that goes by that the U.S. lends its legitimacy to the U.N. with its membership, funding, and special headquarters in New York is an insult to the American taxpayers funding it and American values themselves. The United Nations cannot be salvaged. It must be defunded and evicted instead.
