    You brought all the wrong adjectives to the party. Post rejected. You can try again tomorrow with a fresh package of "exciting" and "energetic". Good Day.

    So says the organization that put Saudi Arabia on the Women's Rights related commission. Physically rolled my eyes out of my skull.

    Even with the current news coming out of SA (Ivanka holds speech about women and working, reporters of the sex that gets talked about are not allowed to be there), I wouldn't go at them for that.

    SA doesn't get forced to participate on the Women's Rights panel, they do that voluntarily and that's good. They get a chance to be involved on a topic they...lag behind, but choose to be part of. That's why I wouldn't write them off. Regarding the UN, mind you.

    Once again, there is nothing "Tea Party of the left" about this. The past two weeks, which have basically drained Trump's political capital entirely, have been brought on entirely by Donald Trump and what he has done.

    He's everyone who wants to destroy him's most reliable accomplice.
    The Tea party had birth certificates. The reactionary left to this election has Russia, ignoring MASSIVE BIG LEAGUE corruption, ignoring actual assassinations, and ice cream.

    Also would you willing to also say Drumpf is now finished?

    Trump will drop out any moment now. Bernie still has a chance.

    Maybe the UN should stop giving the platform to corrupt assholes driving third world countries into hell, if they are truly concerned with the issue of starving people.

    Yeah, some of you can ignore all the instances of human rights issues the country has, some of us won't. Spin the bullshit however you want, there are far better alternatives for the position SA holds on the commission.

    Regardless, the point of my initial comment was that the UN isn't the most altruistic of organizations. They should on work real issues, like feeding those 20 million starving people, before concerning themselves with what stories a particular country's press is running. SA on the Women's Rights commission is just one example. God knows, the UN has been doing a bang up job in the ME and Africa. The optimist in me expects the UN will get on those other issues once they finish having hearings with modern day SJWs and worrying about the US press covering the potential treasonous actions of the sitting US president. Priorities, right?

    To be fair, if fastfood and frozen meals werent subsidized like a !@#$ing Trump hotel, it might be more viable to feed families with "actual food".

    I've always had the option of growing my own produce being fortunate enough to grow up in a rural area, but I dunno how people can actually afford to feed their families "real food" on minimum wage pay in cities with no actual soil to grow in.

    The UN said this?

    How many countries are apart of the UN again?

    I'm all for world hunger awareness but this is virtue signaling. The nerve for UN officals to try to throws stones...

    Makes sense. Nothing but some old fashion partisan redirection.

    Remember when Trump wasn't around and we heard news reports about 20 million starving people every day?

    I have seen so many UNICEF/save the children in africa ads I don't really care anymore. The money/resources will be taken by warlords/corrupt governments/not be used properly anyway.

    As if people aren't already aware there are starving people in Africa.

    There are always starving people in Africa. And India. And China. And the United States. And in every nation on earth.

    The hell is the media going to do about it?

    Apparently they did and Russia abstained.
