Letter to the editor: U.S. should break ties with U.N.

OPINION:

Thank you, President Trump, for creating an environment where American sovereignty is at the forefront of the battle against the globalist initiatives of the United Nations. This was in evidence in March, when the U.S. delegation to the U.N. announced that we would not be part of the U.N.’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development or its Sustainable Development Goals.

The socialist manifesto known as Agenda 2030 would have served to further the centralized global dominance so deeply desired by the U.N. while advancing the far-left doctrines of gender ideology, a woke education system, wealth redistribution and the climate change agenda.

President Trump is a commander in chief who promotes the best interests of America without consideration of world opinion. In proclaiming May 8 World War II “Victory Day,” Mr. Trump honored the goodness of our nation, unlike the last occupant in the White House, who constantly reminded us of our racist, Islamophobic, homophobic tendencies. As the Rev. Franklin Graham pointed out, last Easter Joe Biden declared Transgender Day of Visibility–but this year Mr. Trump acknowledged Easter as the celebration of the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. What a contrast. 

While the two previous White House occupants were more than willing to submit our national sovereignty to the Agenda 2030 mandates, Mr. Trump will not be so compliant. We must get out of the United Nations completely. This corrupt body of power-hungry elites has been the perpetrator of numerous scams and failures, including the Oil-for-Food Program and the disastrous moves during the genocide in Rwanda. More recently, U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres proposed a tax on fossil fuel companies to pay for global warming. 

President Trump, break ties with this globalist organization once and for all, as you did by withdrawing from the World Health Organization and UNESCO. America does not need a world governing body dictating how we should act.
