Mass Resignations At State Dept., Funding Cut To UN; It’s A Start

By Jon Rappoport

When people become enmeshed in large complex structures, they believe those systems are absolutely essential; survival itself is at stake.

They are frequently wrong.

For example, the US State Department and the United Nations could vanish tomorrow, and after a few years no one would notice the difference.

Except of course, the hand-wringing Globalist media, who would howl and shriek and predict doom for all humankind.

The Trump administration is talking about making significant cuts to UN funding. And about 15 in-house “experts” who manage the State Dept. bureaucracy have resigned en masse.

It’s too bad. I mean it’s too bad the Trump administration isn’t going to cut all funding to the UN, and it’s too bad the entire State Department hasn’t quit. Then we’d be getting somewhere.

Instead of the UN, we could have one small apartment building in New York where countries might send representatives to live. These people, of course, would pay their own rent. They would chat, play cards, sit in community rooms, and have drinks. They could pass a few scribbled notes back and forth. No sumptuous assembly hall, no voluminous charter, no bad art celebrating “the unity of all peoples.” Instead, ping pong tournaments and air hockey.

If the US government had listened to George Washington, when he urged avoiding entangling foreign alliances, the US would have followed a far different course of development at home; and permanent relations with other governments would have been laughed out of court.

Who knows? With a clearer focus on domestic issues, the US might have remained a Republic, instead of devolving into a democracy, a venal form of corporatism, an Empire, and a universal Welfare State.

Permanent foreign diplomacy, with all its bizarre accoutrements, would never have entered the scene.

A proper global charter would read, “Don’t bother us and we won’t bother you.” End of story.

If the people of various nations didn’t like their governments, they could rebel, revolt. Same here.

The “unity of everyone” is a straight con. The idea would never have gained traction, unless international entanglements, with all their attendant crimes, had come first. As in: “Hey, I’ve got a great idea. Let’s get a few of the boys together, incite a war, fund both sides, make a huge profit, and then, in the aftermath of the smoking ruins, preach togetherness like it came down from heaven, and cobble together new alliances. Then we can start the whole process over again.”

It’s called treason. A capital offense.

By the way, the land where the UN Headquarters in New York sits was originally donated by John D Rockefeller, which should give you some clue about the organization’s agenda. One planet, indivisible, with an absurd pretension of liberty and justice for all. Or to put it another way, endless entangling alliances.

“Let’s wrap everyone on Earth in coils and knots and tendrils up to their eyeballs and call it Love.”

For those who can’t imagine good reasons for dismantling all sorts of titanic bureaucracies, for those who believe these behemoths are indispensable, try a small-scale analogy: one day you wake up and find a dozen strangers occupying spaces in your house. They all claim to be experts, and they all have solutions to problems concerning the home—problems you never knew existed. Their solutions require a council and endless discussions and reports—and this is for “the greater good.” Your relationship with these strangers seems to be imperative, because, well, they are there.

Your ownership of the house is obviously now in question. You’re not in charge. You can participate in the decision-making, but as the days pass, you realize you’re being edged out. You’re not an expert in “home management.” Therefore, your opinions are put on the back-burner.

And everything goes downhill from there.

But don’t worry. The overarching goal of the strangers is “unity,” and unity must be a good thing. It sounds like a good thing.

—Except for the fact that you never needed it until they showed up.

Finally, one day, you wake up with a brilliant idea:

“I’ll kick them out.”

  1. I agree that the entire state department needs to resign and I would like the UN defunded by the US. Save that money for VETS, seniors and those who are needy. The employees have been propagandized for too long and we need new blood with new thinking. Plus they do a terrible job letting POTUS and FLOTUS know the culture of the country and things like YOU DO NOT BOW TO THE PRINCES OF SAUDI ARABIA OR THE LEADERS OR JAPAN OR TOUCH THE ENGLISH QUEEN’S BODY IF YOU ARE PRESIDENT OR FIRST LADY!!

    • Get the United States out of the United Nations and the United Nations out of the United States. It is an idea whose time has finally come.

    • I agree totally. The State Department needs a complete overhaul. Since WWII they have pursued ‘nation building’, really nation destroying imperialism throughout the world, destroying it and us. We would not have so many migrants if we had not destroyed their nations’ economies, prevented their nationalist efforts. WWI, WWII, and the WWIII the globalists would like to have were entirely motivated by big bankers and their stooges in our various governments. Get the UN out, stop funding it, and stop funding NATO. This is the Second American Revolution. Part of it anyway.

  2. JUST READ THE BIGGEST ‘CON JOB ARTICLEE’ I HAVE READ SO FAR! IT IS ATTACHED HERE!
    POINT BY POINT DEMONSTRATES A TOTALLY ABSURD ANALYSIS AND VISION OF REALITY OR JON RAPPOPORT HAS TOTALLY PICKED SIDES AND IS SELLING-OUT HIS CAREER… HIS READERS… AND AMERICA ITSELF!

    I WOULD GO POINT-FOR-POINT BUT IT IS TOO OBVIOUSLY SICKENING AND ABSURD TO EVEN WASTE TIME ON!

    WAKE-UP AMERICA, ALL YOU DOWNLINE IMMIGRANTS, AND USE SOME INTELLIGENCE… EVEN IF ONLY ARTIFICIAL!

    THIS ARTICLE IS HOGWASH!

    I AM NOT SUPPORTING THE NEW WORLD ORDER AND MAYBE JON SHOULD CLEARLY INDICATE THAT IS WHAT HE IS STRICTLY ADDRESSING HERE! IT WOULD BE MORE HONEST IF HE WOULD DO SO!

    HOWEVER, THERE IS A ONENESS ON THE PLANET…
    GEORGE WASHINGTON WAS A 33° FREEMASON AND AMERICA WAS OFFICIALLY THE NEW MASONIC KINGDOM! THUS JON’S REFERENCE TO GEORGE WASHINGTON MAKES ME LAUGH; AS THE MASONS… HAVE BUILT AND RUN ALL THAT HE IS KNOCKING DOWN!

    AND TRUMP?
    THE MIND GAME!
    REDUCE FUNDS… BUT NOT ALL!
    MAYBE GET OUT… BUT NOT SO!
    STOP ABORTION FUNDING ABROAD … BUT NOT INSIDE!
    THE ECONOMY IN NEW YORK WITH THE UNITED NATIONS? WITHOUT?
    HOW ABOUT TRUMP GETTING ALL UN TROOPS OFF OF AMERICAN SOIL!
    HOW ABOUT TRUMP VETTING THE DHS AND FEMA, NSA AND TSA FROM TOP TO BOTTOM?
    HOW ABOUT REMOVING ALL/ANY FOREIGN TROOPS FROM AMERICAN SOIL!

    THE OCCULT CORRUPTION HAS BEEN EVOLVING FOR CENTURIES ACROSS GENERATIONS AND TRUMP KNOWS THAT VERY WELL: THE FREEMASONS ARE HIS PRIDE AND REVERANCE!
    THE ONLY WAY THAT AMERICA CAN SURVIVE THEM IS TO REMOVE THEM FROM POLITICAL POSITIONS IN ANY US CORPORATE OR OTHER GOVERNMENTAL AND MASONIC ORGANIZATION OR ENTITY!

    AMERICA CAN NOT ENTER INTO NATIONALISM OR ISOLATIONISM!
    DOING SO IS FATAL FOR AMERICANS AND OTHERS WHO AMERICANS HAVE AS PARENTS AROUND THE WORLD!

  3. This guy has all the solutions: We get rid of people of color, close the UN and State Department (use the savings for nice things like infrastructure) and America’s problems are solved. It is moronic.

    • . Trump is not advocating isolationalism. Just saying let’s take care of the USA FIRST, then we can talk about other countries. We can’t afford to fund everyone except the USA. Wake UP!

      • Millie

        Well stated.

        The truth is not always wanted. Far easier to complain.

      • People who don’t like him are not paying attention. He is making deals with other nations, economic deals, alliances, he’s not anti global trade, he’s for fair trade that puts our interests at he forefront. He is against continuing to provide welfare for other nations. This is hardly isolationism.

    • No it’s not, it actually, it works exceptionally well. Proof, if South Africa kicked the British out, they were instantly attacked warned they could no longer use the British pound. They started their own currenci valued at 50% to the pound. In twelve months it was equal in value. They had 40 years of full employment, and brought the black population into the economy by meeting and asking what it would take to get them to participate. All British laws of separate shops, buses, were scrapped and job reservation for black people was enforced following training. The British were bankrupted four years after RSA booted their arses out. You have no need of foreigners, except as paying vistors. Read your history. Whats wrong with the USA??? your behaviour is disgusting. You lost get over it. He has done more in 7 days then the last 3 did in 24 years. Don’t believe what scared shitlees inside traders like Soros, Buffet and the rest of the old school tie parasites are predicting. They dont know!, only he is aware of what he’s going to do next. The communists are terrified and in full panic.

    • You are the submoron. Trump is starting to solve our problems, no thanks to idiots like you. Who advocates getting rid of people of color? That in nonsense. That is your racism being projected onto others who frighten you because they don’t agree with you. The State Department has long been a fascist organization. Murdering people around the world, PEOPLE OF COLOR! Our infrastructure is failing, becoming third world. While we give billions to other nations. The UN does nothing for us, it is a leach, draining our resources further for what, to give billions to leaders of third world countries who do nothing for their people, who buy weapons with it, beautiful houses in Switzerland. It is a sham.

  4. IF the World and the libs in this country Saw that it is in our best interests to divest ourselves of the bonds of the NWO

  5. Resignations? Good

    UN defunding? Good

  6. While de-centralization from the present condition can be seen as a good thing I get an uneasy feeling about the new administration being set up in America. This recent election with the open warfare between differing factions within the elite class, from the use of Wikileaks, the alphabet agencies or factional operatives within to the MSM might give the tell that something very large within the power and control structure is afoot. A table stakes game to be sure. While ‘Continuity of Agenda’ is in full display [Obama enacted immigration blocks three times during his rule on the same countries Trump has] there are also hints been given that this new regime means to move beyond that ‘Continuity’ and in a rapid manner.

    Is no one alarmed that Trump has called for the resumption. really continuation, of the use of torture and CIA black sites or that Erik Prince, creator of Blackwater, as an unofficial consultant to the Trump team has called for the re-instigation, really continuation, of the ill famed Phoenix Program instituted during the Vietnam War and perfected in wars from Latin America, to the Balkans, the Middle East, Afghanistan and beyond since then.Phoenix is simply put a terror. false flag and black propaganda program aimed at any opposition to American ruling class agenda anywhere it is set up. Think of all those fusion centers, one at least in every American state, the erosion of civil liberties where American citizens can now be ‘renditioned’ and the many States that are now enacting law to stifle any non approved of protest. My gut is telling me that the nasties are about to be given a much freer rein and rule of law is about to be subverted as never seen in America. Are we about to be dumped from the frying pan into the fire? Is this the coup that many have warned of, hiding behind a wave of populism and voted into being by a minority of the electorate?

    • I hear you, and have been wondering the same. It would seem that Trump’s “New Nationalism” could quickly create a huge power vacuum into which new levels of black-ops depravity could proliferate unchecked.

      • It’s good to know that I’m not alone with this queasy feeling I am getting on the shape of things to come but not yet formed.

        • Oh, no, you’re far from alone. I think there’s a great deal of tension in the culture right now, as we have both reason to be alarmed and elevated anxiety of the unknown.

          • Change is always frightening especially to those who do not benefit from it. Elites may lose their jobs. There are big changes coming. I am far less alarmed than when Obama was in charge with his anti-American, racist anti-white people attitudes.

      • Paranoia strikes deep, into your life it will creep…

    • Oh yes many people have not caught on that this is the Second American Revolution, a revolution against our aristocrats. I see no laws to stifle protest. Other than the one Obama made to enable defining protestors as terrorists. So far not acted upon. No the revolution is restoring law, the corrupt criminal Obama administration ignored our laws and started making up it’s own, like Hitler did. We dodged a bullet by ousting democratic fascists from power. A Justice Department that blames police for inner city violence. Protects criminals. A farce. It is an election, by the MAJORITY of Americans who elected a revolutionary president to restore our values. What fusion centers? In your imagination. the recent election was a vote against the kind of liberal fascism that has gripped our nation for the past eight years, really for the past 40 years. It’s motto could be Elites Suck. Elites who have ruined our world by selling us out. By regulating our economy to death. By giving away our national wealth to nation building, welfare to billionaires, welfare to other nations who despise us. Our independence will free the world from nation building fascism. Let everyone manage their own destiny while we manage ours more effectively. Civil liberties, you mean the ones you liberal fascists want to destroy? No thanks. Get some more safety pins and see a shrink, your paranoid delusions are quite amazing.

  7. “Hey, I’ve got a great idea. Let’s get a few of the boys together, incite a war, fund both sides, make a huge profit, and then, in the aftermath of the smoking ruins, preach togetherness like it came down from heaven, and cobble together new alliances.”

    Exactly what Rockefeller has done time and again. He has played the whole world like a supreme musician.

  8. Half of an education means you know just enough to be dangerous. In this modern world of telecommunications, the world has gotten smaller. Just because we host the UN Headquarters doesn’t mean they live here or give US orders. It actually works pretty well in terms of knowing your enemy, by inviting him to dinner. As for our own State Dept., my bigger concern is how it acts as an extension for US & multinational corporations, greedy for foreign assets or penetration of foreign markets even where we’re not wanted. Countries should have the right to be left alone to do their own economic & political experiments, without our being a bully and telling them how to do things. We might just lead by example, but that requires more integrity than we demonstrate. As for bucolic memories, it wasn’t all happy times for the natives, slaves, women and yes, the poor & dissenfranchised. You only own what you’re strong enough to defend, someday your strength will fail, remember that.

    • We never were a shining example of anything political except how to wield power viciously People came to the USA for freedom from government and tried to avoid being enslaved again by our own aristocrats, thus the Bill of Rights. What we have inspired is a desire for freedom and democracy, economic opportunity in others. Then proceeded to crush this wherever we found it. And we have been crushed in turn. We were once the dream of the world, 65% middle class and rising. Now we are the nightmare of the world, 45% middle class and dropping. Working class crushed, middle class being crushed, we need our freedom back desperately. Half of an education? Are you another one of these liberal fascists who thinks anyone without a fake degree is ignorant? How dare you insult other people without any just cause to. We cannot lead by example, we are not a good example right now to anyone. That might change however. If liberals stopped fighting change and helped it to happen. And who elected us leader? We will influence the world by reforming our our situation. By restoring opportunity, not just for liberal elites but for us low lifes with ‘half an education’. Those of us who have not graduated from Harvard..we are the disenfranchised, working people in the USA today. We are fighting back. We need far less government, no national security agencies, gestapos by any other name, no media monopolies, fare less regulators, more people who actually do and contribute something viable. No welfare for the world! Many people here are living below the poverty line, perhaps as many as 40%. That is a problem. These people need jobs not welfare. Rant over.

      • I never meant to suggest that a complete education involved Harvard, Yale or even Wharton, but looking a little deeper into reality than Faux News. No, I’m a right-wing fascist who believes a guy like rumpT can restore US to all those things on your wish-list! But more seriously, the thing our civilization misses is a heart. Trump’s ghost-writer Tony Schwartz said he lacks kindness, lies obsessively and has no redeeming qualities! Of course himself favors the surveillance state/militarized police agencies, what ARE you missing! Now I must ask, what’s stopping a dissenfranchised low life like you from upgrading theirs? Opportunity has always been there, what’s stopping you RIGHT NOW? You have the internet, plenty of online courses, the web is the world’s filing cabinet of info, a resource to-die-for, past generations would envy (I was on the cusp.) You have the ‘rump as a figure …end, that so many pro-biz, con-servitudes felt they needed to feel friended again.

        Have you looked how the Russians manage themselves? No foreign banks, no sale
        of national assets to foreigners, lots of protectionism, a historical culture to which they have pride and cling to, a practical-minded people not influenced by Hollywood.

        Actually the ‘rump is representative of the parasitic over-class of well-funded, well-connected elite selling you their unnecessary sumptuous crapola. He will cut regulations that impede business, but that will mean lower wages, more polluted water and air like before we had an EPA, more profits to oil companies and their investors and less development of clean, space-age alternatives, more wage-slavery, less corporate accountability, The rump has nothing in common with you, he doesn’t (can’t) identify with you, it was never his experience. ‘Rump is rump.

        Yes, thank western banksters for funding development of other countries at our expense. Thank YOU for voting for ‘rump instead of Bernie, who might have given you the debt-free education and rung-up you’re calling for. If Americans can’t figure out who to vote for in their interest, they get the dysfunctional government they deserve.

  9. I agree UN sucks there have been more wars since its inception, but a small apartment building LOL how about a cave. Issues between nations need an established neutral third party. The fantasy libertarian world, didn’t work in Austria, its birth place and won’t work here. If you hate paying taxes for roads, and water don’t drink or drive your car on the public roads.

  10. I love reading Jon Rappoport’s articles. Very insightful observations that are true. Thanks Jon!

  11. Ryszard Richard Kaczmarczyk | January 31, 2017 at 5:48 pm |

    I guess you haven’t heard about the Industrial Military Banking Complex, International and National?

  12. I’d give them an ultimatum before I kicked their sorry left wing butts out of this country. We pay for that?? Get Us OUT of The UN alright…the quicker the better.

  13. Is this reporter SURE the State Department personnel were not FIRED?

  14. Things are looking up! Watch your back, Trump.

    • Yes absolutely the establishment would love to assassinate him. Why he changed the makeup of the National Security Council and CIA.

      • He didn’t waste time doing it, either. But Trump is not one to waste time (is money), anyway.

        I wonder if his own plane mechanics can check out Air Force One? It would be a good idea, for sure.

  15. The U.N. and the State department are all part of the swamp.
    Drain the swamp.
    Silver stakes required.

    • Yes we are forgetting about the need for silver stakes. I wonder where they fill find jobs, don’t care really but what skills would they tout? Experienced fascist, liar, destroyer of nations. Hmmm, might not get many takers with that one.

  16. Fired, Not resigned. Check your facts a little closer Mr. Roppoport.

  17. I didnt realize 5 people were a “mass”. Those 5 folks were obama shills that were about to be fired and replaced. Lets tell the truth…hmmmm?

    Besides those 5 have the blood of Benghazi victims on their hands.
