Hey so… just a friendly reminder: Trump is going to pull the US off the Human Rights Council because the US got called out for Human Rights violations due to it’s policy of separating families at the border.
Let me repeat that:
THE US WAS ACCUSED BY THE HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL OF HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS AND INSTEAD OF ADDRESSING THE CONCERNS/STOPPING THE VIOLATIONS, THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION DECIDED TO JUST LEAVE THE COUNCIL ALL TOGETHER.
And the administration is trying to say it’s because of concerns they have about the state of the Council, and the UN at large. That’s no reason to fucking leave it, that’s reason to improve your own country and take on more responsibility to improve the Council you’re part of. It’s nothing more than a shitty excuse, and lots of people will buy it.
