Trump to End Funding for Hamas Front Group UNRWA, Pull US from UN Human Rights Council

Every day is Christmas morning.

President Trump is set to slash U.S. funding for the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) over its reported ties to Hamas and pull the U.S. out of the UN Human Rights Council (HRC). The executive order is expected to be signed Tuesday when Trump meets with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Key Details:

Trump previously halted UNRWA funding in 2018, citing concerns over its alleged support for Hamas, but Biden restored it.

The HRC has long been criticized for its anti-Israel bias, with Trump previously withdrawing the U.S. in 2018.

The move follows revelations that UNRWA employees participated in the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attack against Israel.

Diving Deeper:

President Donald Trump is taking decisive action to sever U.S. support for two controversial UN entities, cutting funding for UNRWA and withdrawing from the UN Human Rights Council. The expected executive order, set to be signed Tuesday, coincides with Trump's meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The decision comes in response to revelations that multiple UNRWA employees were involved in the brutal October 7 Hamas terror attack against Israel. Reports from both Israeli intelligence and international media indicated that several UNRWA staffers played direct roles in the planning and execution of the assault. Following Israeli pressure, UNRWA dismissed 10 of the 12 employees involved, while the other two were confirmed dead.

...

The UN Human Rights Council has also drawn criticism for its disproportionate scrutiny of Israel. During Trump's first term, the U.S. exited the council in protest of its anti-Israel stance.

While the Biden administration acknowledged the HRC's flaws, it argued that maintaining a presence would allow the U.S. to advocate for reforms. Then-Secretary of State Antony Blinken justified the decision to rejoin, stating, "The UN Human Rights Council is flawed and needs reform, but walking away won't fix it."

My only worry about the latter move is this -- and I don't even know the answer to this question. Does the US have some kind of veto on the Human Rights Council that we lose if we exit the corrupt group?

If we don't, then f*** 'em.

More dirt on USAID:

When USAID staff heard that Musk's team was coming, says a contractor receiving money from the CIA Marxist slush-fund, they took down their Pride flags (which Trump's EO ordered them to do, but which they were resisting) and hid their "incriminating books."

This is what a USAID "contractor" says, trying to show the organization to be good.

This data analyst found the network of shell companies that fund Bill Kristol's "Defending Democracy Together" partisan psyop group. What USAID does is give grants to some clean (or clean-er) organizations, who then grant money to less clean organizations, who then grant money to dirty organizations, who ultimately grant money to leftwing/Marxist groups who were always the intended recipient of the money, but the CIA wanted to maintain plausible deniability.

This is all a money laundering operation to allow the CIA to pay money to US agents to run political operations against the population of the US.

Here's what the convoluted funding scheme for Kristol's "Defending Democracy Together" looks like, starting with the original grant. I believe each of the numbers is the numerical designation for some "nonprofit" NGO.

And they all act together to pay off Bill Kristol to run CIA ops against the duly elected president of the United States:

That's how USAID funded the Wuhan lab -- they sent money to a "clean" recipient, the University of California, who then laundered the money to a less-clean recipient, Fauci's buddy's "EcoHealth Alliance," who then sent the money where it was always intended to go, the Chinese bioweapon lab in Wuhan.

I met with a range of people in New York this week, from right-wing anons to establishment-left reporters. The sense is that the Left will concede on DEI--smart liberals consider it a failure--but they are panicking about the idea of defunding the NGOs. That will be the fight.

Razib Khan @razibkhan

the NGOs employ a lot of people who have worked there for decades. it's multi-generational employment that goes back to the NGOs long-ago seeded by the ford foundation. DEI employment was a new racket

also, NGOs are how the cultural left actualizes soft power

It's a sinecure and soft landing. Democrats go into staffing jobs at the White House. Then they go back to their cozy, no-show-no-work mafia style "jobs." This is why Democrats are always ready to go on day 1. Their bench is ready to go in. Nobody had real businesses to unwind.

Mike Benz reveals that USAID pays more to George Soros' Tides Center -- which fomented Black Lives Matter and pays to get leftwing, pro-crime prosecutors elected -- than George Soros himself pays.

We've been blaming George Soros for paying for pro-crime prosecutors. The joke's on us! We've been paying for those prosecutors all along, through USAID!

He also says that USAID funded "disinformation" organizations to eliminate "populist" news sites from the media, because populists reduce trust in the leftwing media organizations they're propping up.

How can this not be criminal!?!?

Benz says that Alexandria Donkey-Chompers' rise from obscurity to sitting congresspyrsyn was funded by, get this, USAID, which pumps money into "justice and democracy" groups which then fund socialist groups in the US like the "Justice Democrats" (who then picked AOC out of 10,000 contestants to run for Congress).
