New Bill Filed to Leave UN

So I know this bill gets filed at pretty much every new session since maybe the late 90's. Since it seems we are going to an isolationist country (which I don't think is good), what are the pro's and con's of leaving the UN?

    PROS: It saves the USA tax payer billions for treating a group of mostly thugs like royalty. It stops giving heathens a platform to espouse their lies.

    CONS: None, we have skype to talk to any one on the planet face to face and voting can be handled by text.

    Haley loses her job as Governor and is out the UN ambassador post as well?

    I think we have to have some allies, if that is Nato or UN I don't know.

    I know we fund a large percentage based on what I hear and not sure what we get for it.
    Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!

    The UN is totalitarian and anti-American, despite what the DEMOCRATS tell you.
    The UN is anti Israel
    The UN is about control, tyranny, and uses the "environmental" excuse as justification to expand its power.
    The UN is financed most by USA which in turn is dolt out to our enemies and people who hate us.

    Con If we leave the UN we lose veto power in the UN. The UN can cause us a lot of problems if it is unleashed on us.

    IF the USA stopped paying the UN dues (unlike many nations) it would fold in a week.

    The UN is toothless...therefore no "there", there.

    Let's get out of it.

    Cut off the UN - almost all there are corrupt scum of the earth.
    Cut off EVERY "sanctuary" city too.

    What could the UN possibly do to the USA? As genocide goes on across the globe they show up in pansy blue hats and watch the carnage.

    The UN is as useful in solving world wide problems as a screen door is on a submarine.

    Funny Haley was against Trump prior to elections in SC. Funnier if she lost governors job and washingtons.

    It would serve her right, she of Indian decent hates the history of the Confederacy and the flag......had it removed by African Americans State Troopers on national TV which told me all I needed to know about her. [:(!]
