Cut funding for the International Organization for Migration too!


Reportedly Donald Trump is working on an executive order to limit US funds to the United Nations and certain other international organizations.

Trump Watch!

Readers here know that the vast majority of our refugees are chosen at the direction of the United Nations and that processing (including handing out those US taxpayer-funded plane tickets) falls to a special branch of the UN—the International Organization for Migration which was not too long ago folded in to the United Nations.


Many recent media reports put US funding to the UN at 25% of the entire budget of the multi-billion dollar organization whose members are always ready and willing to criticize the US and Israel.


Here The Hill is rewriting a NYT piece about the possible executive order:


President Trump’s administration is crafting an executive order that will potentially reduce America’s role in global organizations like the United Nations, according to a new report.

Trump’s draft order calls for enacting “at least a 40 percent overall decrease” in U.S. funding to international groups meeting any one of several criteria, The New York Times said Wednesday.

Trump’s draft order, which is titled “Auditing and Reducing U.S. Funding of International Organizations,” would establish a committee to recommend where such funding cuts should be made.Trump’s draft order, which is titled “Auditing and Reducing U.S. Funding of International Organizations,” would establish a committee to recommend where such funding cuts should be made.

I have a recommendation! Cut the funding to the IOM and it will result in a drastic cut to the number of refugees forced upon us.

The man is so amazing. He's leaving no mole in the ground, no stone unturned, no dime left unaccounted for.

GO TRUMP GO!!!

Hope this is all true, it's absolutely the right thing to do, could even and perhaps should be even higher cuts than 40%. But, lets go with "at least 40%" and limit the whines for now.

Hope to see a formal announcement on this one very soon!

Thank you Mr. President. Thank you very very much!
