The orders would reduce the United States' role in international bodies, including the United Nations, and start a review process that would seek to potentially withdraw from multilateral treaties, the report said. Trump has been spending his first days in office signing a series of executive actions, including on abortion, immigration and border control.

According to The New York Times, a first draft order, titled "Auditing and Reducing US Funding of International Organizations," would drastically reduce or terminate funding for UN agencies or other bodies that meet any one of several criteria. Among them: Agencies that "give full membership to the Palestinian Authority or Palestine Liberation Organization," support abortion programs, or engage in any activity that skirts international sanctions against Iran or North Korea.

    His Son in Law is one of his senior advisor's and his daughter is of The Jewish Faith now along with his grand children!

    It's going to be a big fight coming soon! It's Biblical in proportions!

    do you really think the Trumps have not gotten over that prior to this? My daughter claims to be a Scientologist whatever the hell that is, my sister became a Jew...we all still share a ham over the Christmas dinner table.

    Actions are louder than words and his son in law is a Senior Advisor in the White-House now.It will not go unnoticed by the opposition.

    WW II was fresh on their minds but will The U.N. prevent WW III? General Douglas MacArthur was for it. But he wanted to atom bomb Red China too!

    It was set up to fail with all those permanent members with a veto power to throw out any resolution brought forth before voting. Mostly a gripe session soap-box affair before a war breaks out.Keep your friend close but your enemies closer![:o)]

    The UN headquarters needs to be removed from US soil. They SHOULD be located where they are needed. Maybe Botswana, or Syria. Then they might actually do something of benefit.

    When you need to buy your friends to have them. They are not your friends but dependants.

    The time for the UN has passed. Like the League of Nations failed.
