Not only should we leave the UN, but we should force them to leave our country.
U can try.
@@willielim3269 we should try.
@@billhawkes6297 US is like an onion skin.😁😁😁
Fun fact is UN has been thinking to move their HQ elsewhere because American imposing embargo like in Venezuela or Afghanistan, because of that the delegation cannot come to America, Venezuela can't even pay their membership fee because denied payment system.
@@gkagara Fun facts without the US UN will run out of money in four months. What would be contribution of Venezuela or Afghanistan .0001% maybe? Just enough to pay for electricity for a day.
This is the finest speech I have ever heard on any foreign affairs issue. Thank you, Senator Lee, for explaining so well why the U.S. has no business continuing its membership in AND funding the United Nations.
I would prefer that the legislation also required the UN leaves the US !
i imagine it will.
if america isn't going to fund it anymore, that probably also means that it won't fund the building.
boot it out asap
we would prefer the usa to leave earth but lets keep it real buddy
@@ZionistWorldOrderno that's just you .
@@ZionistWorldOrderYou and a lot of Communists and Nazis.
Thank You senator Mike Lee for your support for the American people.
I wholeheartedly agree with Senator Lee. The UN should have been defunded long time ago.
If Trump is reelected, this time around I'd bet money he will pull the plug on the UN, take the US out, and will shut off the 25% of the entire UN budget the US taxpayer coughs up annually.
“The time has come to recognize the United Nations for the anti-American, anti-freedom organization that it has become. The time has come for us to cut off all financial help, withdraw as a member, and ask the United Nations to find headquarters location outside the United States that is more in keeping with the philosophy of the majority of voting members, someplace like Moscow or Peking.”
~ Barry Goldwater
(1909-1998) US Senator (R-Arizona)
Mike also say SS and Medicare are garbage and has plans to cut.
Interestingly United Nation was born out of America.
Greeks bearing gifts, please keep your cash jack!
We need to exit the UN and the WHO. I don’t understand why we’re so quick to give up our sovereignty.
We didn’t. The federal government did. They are not he same as the American citizen body
That is the most appropriate action that could be taken under the circumstances. Charity begins at home . At home send ALL the migrants home and start to take care of our police firemen veterans and senior with medical personnel trained in America and let all be citizens born in America.
My girlfriend is a nurse in Hawaii. She speaks Mandarin, that why she was hired. The maternity ward is full of women from China. They came to America so their child would be a citizen born in America.
@@chilkat_river The "anchor baby" business needs to be banned. Immediately!
@@chilkat_river I've heard this is what is going on here on the mainland as well. It's been suggested Irvine California is part of this issue too.
Bring the troops home as the people mandated when they elected Trump and problem solved.
@chilkatriver1671 everyday..from around the world.. you are correct..
Great speech , Get us out of the UN !!
How wonderful to hear the reality of the UN spoken aloud
I can only imagine what the true and accurate dollar amount we actually spend on this corrupt body! Should have withdrew YEARS ago!
Amen
@@thehaglin woke up this morning thinking I should write to Foreign Affairs Minister saying that we have to get out of the UN (not that I expect my letter to carry any weight).. An hour later I hear that there is something been put to US Congress about stopping their funding of the UN. Is this the start?
that would leave all remaining members in a possible alliance where the US would not have any vote not to speak of a veto
people liking your comment need to rethink-that is if they are not aiming for a weakening of the US political position
@@sandboxaccountz.zy.7012 not exactly. UN ‘resolutions’ are just that. They are not binding. Our geopolitical stances has never been tied to the UN. The US, as do other nations, uses the body and its seat on the ‘security’ council among others to strong arm other nations to do our bidding or to push a certain agenda or narrative. The UN only has the power to which we give it. “United” is a nice thing to think about, but anyone who actually believes any of the member states are ‘united’ is a fool. And those who assert the UN has any enforceable enforcement powers is of the same ilk.
I was so happy to hear from Senator Mike Lee regarding his proposed legislation. I'm 73 and have for years felt the UN and the WHO have been utilizing our resources and tax dollars as they gaily lead us down their primrose path. I applaud you Senator Lee for proposing this legislation.
Oo when you were about 70 you didn't notice the vital role WHO played during the pandemic, when the US had a president with no clue what to do. Good luck with the next pandemic.
And so say all of us - many around the world btw.
@@paperclip612 Good luck with the next pandemic (and be sure there's plenty more where covid came from) when nobody is in charge. We're all on the same planet duffus, deal with it.
@@alanwatterson2850 What good did the UN and WHO do during covid other than help spread it? I would like to hear your expert opinion...
@@davidsilvercreek8541 Hi David, my opinion isn't expert. I trust the virologists and epidemiologists for that. However I know enough to see that your claim that the WHO spread covid is false. What they did do is alert all world governments that there was indeed a pandemic and how best to respond to it. They also facilitated the collaboration of the world's best teams of virologists to develop vaccines against the virus in record time, saving millions of lives. If you would rather face the next (inevitable) pandemic by relying on how much big pharma can make instead of a coordinated approach yielding the best outcomes for the most people, I think you're mistaken.
The UN had its time. That time is over. Lose it.
Wyoming had it's time. That time is over. Lose it.
EVICT THEM.
@@yepyep340Its time you grow up.
@@eehsua life is a state of mind. Yours is sad huh.
@@yepyep340WTF are you talking about? Isn't your mom calling you. Go do dishes. Got to earn that allowance.
Hooray for Lee. He's going against the swamp to do what is really true and right.
He us the swamp didnt trum and tell you that? Or youre blind
@@jc-zp1de
I must not be....
Because, I had to read your post several times, to decipher that cryptic message you posted...
Been saying we need to exit the UN for decades…..it’s just absurd at this point.
Blah blah blah another trumper heard from.
what if gayliens invade uranus ? then you would want the UN
@@robyoung-pl1gq I know right, we all wish Trump were President again….lower inflation, cheaper gas, no war mongering, wages increasing.
The UN needs the USA. However, the USA doesn't need the UN.
Same! It’s been absurd since its inception. Truman went thru the turnstile of the “Carousel of Progress” at Disney one too many times…
The UN just told Americans that we need to reduce the amount of meat we can eat! The UN thinks it can tell is when and what to do. We need to leave!
The UN is the source of Agenda 2030 with the scheme for "smart cities," "15 minute cities," so-called "sustainable development;" stopping the use of natural gas, oil, and bio-fuel as sources of energy; and control of every human, animal, plant, and building in existence, and mass surveillance of everybody in the world thru so-called "smart" technology.
They are also trying to get our government to take our guns away. They care nothing about our constitution.
I hope the legislation gets passed and acted on!
Democrats will block it or Joe will veto it
Please please get America out of the anti USA U.N. !
They already have the new ( alternate) UN building in Europe.... Prepared for their own Building destruction..
US is a to UN and peace.
99% of conflicts on this planet are down to the USA.
USA is on a death spiral of relevance and is on the wrong side of history.
US empire will be one of the hottest ever in history and the sooner it’s gone the better from peace.
More like if you cant control the UN we all look like communist in your eyes right?
Amen someone speaking the truth needed to be heard
FINALLY 😊!
Senator Mike Lee is brave enough to introduce legislation to get the USA out of the very corrupt UN!!
Next, get the UN out of the USA 😊!!!
MAYBE. MOVE THE U.N. HEADQUARTERS TO BEIJING, CHINA ------ WONDER IF THOSE U.N. AMBASSADORS , THEIR STAFF ALONG WITH FAMILY MEMBERS / RELATIVES WILL. HAVE *** DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY ?????????
Yes.. US shld just get out.😅😅😅
Who told you the UN was bad?
Their actions are not right.
In the unlikely event the USA should leave, the UN might go the way of the League of Nations; out of business.
All non-government institutions shall be defunded or even dismantled. they happen to be the problem and not the solution.
Fantastic! Get us out of the UN and WHO!!!
Thank you Sen Lee, I'm tired of paying to get our teeth kicked in.
Get us out of the United Nations 🇺🇸
Also get us out of the World Health Organization as it is trying to take over the U.S.
100% agreed!!! Please let us leave the UN and the WHO!!!
The old saying was get the United States out of the United Nations. And get the United Nations out of the United States.
Amen! It's about time someone calls for us to get out of the UN!
It wasn't all Sen. Mike Lee had to say... it should have recorded to the end.
What did record was most excellent. I stand in complete agreement.
The UN has become a total waste. Not one cent should be given to them.
Good on ya, Senator Lee. I stand with you!!
My young ears were always hearing the mantra that nationalism was always behind wars. But it appears that supranationalism is behind the worst. We need to stand behind our Nations, as we support the self determination of ALL nations.
A man after my own heart. I can remember as a youth, seeing signs along the roadsides "Get us out of the United Nations". I was 12 or 13. Now 67.
Finally, a patriot stands up
Mike Lee would be my nominee for Secretary of State in the second Trump administration.
fantasy land much huh.
@@yepyep340looks like you do
@@blackbetty-id1zo tRump is DOOMED!
Denial ain't just a river in Egypt little fella.
Sen. Mike Lee would be a solid Secretary of State..!!
Attorney General, certainly. Idk about State…
*Senator Mike Lee's complaints and disappointments about the United Nations exactly mirrors many Americans' feelings about the US government. As the UN has failed us, so too has the US leadership failed the American people.*
100% agreed. Too expensive a club, too many varied objectives that do not align with ours and they even snub and/or criticize. Bye UN 🫡
@lylm4147 I completely agree with that too, the world is tired of our "Good" intentions... I would also like all foreign aid stopped, we'll take care of our damn selves...
We can only hope, and pray you gain support for this proposal Sen. Lee. It is the right thing to do...
The UN covenant on Civil and political rights calls for small arms disarmament of AMERICAN CITIZENS. READ IT.
It'd cost them... BAD. They know.🐒
Senator Lee is a true statesman who speaks for the best interests of the American People.
He speaks for AIPAC
We should have left the UN long ago. I really hope this passes.
@@robyoung-pl1gq Ah another never Trumper eh? Your allowed it's a free, well almost free country, so write what you think. Use logic instead of hate. Oh wait, you must be a lefty. That explains it.
It won't pass because of the corrupt politicians being paid to launder tax funds into the UN want their cash cow.
It won't pass.
More than likely no. Democrats have the Majority so...
@@timwoods603no its just a stupid decision...

Couldn't agree more 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍
AWESOME!
Thank you Senator. The UN & Who should have ended decades ago.
The UN is funding the invasi0n.
Get us out of the UN and WHO!!!
It's about time somebody woke up and spoke up. Get us OUT of the U.N. and get them out of our country.
Praying for us all! NO UN! NO WHO!
How long did it take China to contact the WHO about Covid and how long did the WHO sit on it?
Blah blah blah another trumper heard from.
who ?
@@robyoung-pl1gq Robert, I believe it's time for your koolaid and meds. Run along now.
No NATO for the US. Bring out troops home to defend North America.
All educated people should support senator Lee on this issue. Thank You Senator Lee !!!
Outstanding!
Go for it! I am all for this! Let's go! Do it!
YES!!! Please pass this!!!
Thank you Senator! I am proud to be your constituent! We need to stop funding the fighting between rival UN ‘Peace keeping’ forces!
Yes please Senater Lee get us out of the crooked UN AND CROOKED WHO. Come on Congress listen to him and get us out.😊
Thank you senator Lee!
Yes ... Can we please get back in America.. Build our country.. help Americans..
So we need to throw out AIPAC.
@@Gee-xb7rt I have to say.. I don't know much about what you mentioned... But. If it's not for the good of the country .. or is taking a way.. the solvency of the nation.. then ya probably..
To get back in America and build our country, the government needs to spend those $$ in America, instead of sending them to Ukraine and Israel.
This has been on my mind for the last couple of weeks. I think it's the time to give the boot to both of these organisations.
I believe we should cut all our support . We’re keeping the doors open . Other countries aren’t paying their dues . It’s a joke and it’s on the US . GET OUT NOW !

This statement I will 100% agree with as a non US citizen. It has always been left to the USA to pay the lions share in the UN, NATO and other global offices. This is bloody disgraceful and while some nations claim to be poor, I see that wealth does exist in one form or another. The UN should be funded on a per capita basis as a minimum and it should not be left to industrial rich nations to supplement it. However, that said all decisions are then equal and a majority vote rule should apply. As for the UNSC, the power of one country to veto should be abolished as well, or if it remains, then the invoking of the article 99 by the Secretary General overrides this rule. There should be sufficient reason for invoking the rule, such as imminent nuclear war or such.
The UN would not be a force that provides military, but sanctions or not an action which all members abide with. The role of the UN has gone from simple to beyond its reach in 70 years. It needs to get back to its grass roots tasking.
Mike Lee must be in The Trump Administration! What a great man!🙏🇺🇸
Thank you Mr Lee
ITS ABOUT TIME. IM OVER 80 YEARS OLD AND I HAVE WAITED FOR THIS FOR A LONG TIME. THE REASONS FOR IT TO BE IN EXISTENCE, WERE GOOD REASONS AT THE TIME, NOT ANYMORE.
I've been saying this for years. Quit funding the U,N and kick them out of the USA, Also get out of W.H.O. before they make us do something stupid like have another lock down..
So, UN made you do lock down?
The next lockdown leads to the UN takeover of the USA. The treaties have already been signed. All the Chinese at our southern border are soon to be in the US armed forces. Think they'll be used against the true citizens?
Turn the UN building to veteran housing!

So does WHO and the WEF.

Illegal Migrants could live there.
@@dh190852 like that huh.😅
We need to leave UN ASAP PLEASE ! Those people don’t have the American values as we do , i believe they are what you could say mean people .
Absolutwly Mike, great job once again.
*_SEN MIKE LESS WE THE PEOPLE SUPPORT YOU 100%!!!_*
A law needs to be passed that restricts the government from giving tax dollars to any organization, country or persons unless the people
" citizens" agree with where the money is going if the majority of the people say no that entity does not get funding period.
So basically more of a direct democracy system rather than representative democracy / republic. Fair enough.
I don't know that the majority of Americans disagree with funding the UN, at least to some extent, however. Hard to say where people stand with polling everyone.
@@yavayen4796 well look what has happened letting the people that are voted in to make those decisions. They all get something in return when they give our money away.. the constitution says the government can not take money from the citizen and give it to anyone else period and they have lost sight of that fact because of greed
I believe @@yavayen4796 polling is b.s. Cut ties to UN completely...
Right on Mike.
We the people fully agree the UN and WHO is no place for peaceful free thinkers.
Since the UN chooses to operate rogue it is time that the U.S. disenfranchises itself from the whole UN operation and to go a step further issue an eviction notice to them and tell them to relocate outside the U.S. The building could then be converted into housing for homeless veterans and also include a grocery store and doctors office that could be used by the veterans. The veterans that would reside there would be required to follow extensive rules that would prohibit the use of drugs and alcohol among residents.
Let's Pack Up come home And Take Care of Our 🇺🇲Own!!
He is right. the U.S. is a good steward of world peace. We should praise American generosity in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Ukraine (coup in 2014 that nobody wants to talk about).
If that’s the case, you got my vote, let’s get out of the UN. Let’s get out of WHO
I love the WHO ! Great band!
It's great to see the congress finally standing up for this country!
It' about time. thanks Rep Lee
100000000000000% agree with leaving the UN and WHO. I also believe we should rent out the UN HQ in NY for billions every year for those that wish to be apart of the UN.
Thank God for Mike Lee. It's about time that the U.S. gets out of the U.N. and WHO. The U.N. should get out of NYC, too.
I remember when trump said we should leave the un years ago. He was truly ahead of his time.
He also got us out of the TPP & PCC agreements, from what I remember. O'biden joined us right back up, which was a huge mistake.
About fricking time
100%!
YES!!!
About damn time someone said it!
Finally no more wasting money on people that clearly don’t like us
God Bless You mike and your family, you are One of our best !
Sounds like a plan to me.
YES YES YES! I THINK THIS SOUNDS LIKE A GREAT IDEA! I’D DEFINITELY VOTE YES!
Please Lord Amen an thank you Lord for Mike Lee Amen ❤
Get this done ASAP.
We Americans say leave the UN.😊
The rest of the world say, don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Support, good luck..
Exactly what I'm thinking about the UN.
Mike Lee just became my favorite player in the league this year
If the USA leaves the UN the UN would have to leave the US. Perhaps the UN could move to China or Russia? I don't know how much member nations would like having the UN headquarters in those countries?
I suggested Haiti
@@Wopstar-777 yea why not 🤷♂️. That honestly seems like a good idea on several fronts. Besides all of the hurricanes. Wait, actually that might be a positive too!
@lylm4147 do you call yourself ‘world’ because of your weight?
On the contrary, it’s the General Assembly at the UN that should throw the USA out of the UN
Amen! You are 100% correct Sen. Lee!
I totally agree with Senator Mike Lee; our beloved USA needs to get out of the UN and WHO. 3:00 😮😮😮😮
Our kindness is abused at every moment; it is enough. Let's get out of UN & WHO as soon as possible for the sake of the American Citizens😮😮😮😮 5:52
👍🙏
I agree with Sen. Lee.
Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Get us the hell out of the UN damn sure ain't in America's interest
Spot on & that's coming from a Brit living in the Europe. The UN is not fit for purpose.
You Limyies just got divided & conquered from the EU by BIG OIL. how is that working out for ya.😆
@@yepyep340 Tell me yepyep what relevance has this to do with the failures of the UN?🤔
absolutely!
We should leave the UN and remove the organization from our borders.
Yes! YES! Please can we remove ourselves from the U.N.?
And while we're at it, remove the U.N. from U.S. soil!
Contact your Senators AND Representatives and tell them to get on this!
You have my support a 1000% Senator Lee like all those who do love this country God bless
Awesome!
