WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration will withdraw from dozens of international organizations, including the U.N.'s population agency and the U.N. treaty that establishes international climate negotiations, as the U.S. further retreats from global cooperation.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday signed an executive order suspending U.S. support for 66 organizations, agencies, and commissions, following his administration’s review of participation in and funding for all international organizations, including those affiliated with the United Nations, according to a White House release.

Many of the targets are U.N.-related agencies, commissions and advisory panels that focus on climate, labor, migration and other issues the Trump administration has categorized as catering to diversity and “woke” initiatives. Other non-U.N. organizations on the list include the Partnership for Atlantic Cooperation, the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance, and the Global Counterterrorism Forum.

“The Trump Administration has found these institutions to be redundant in their scope, mismanaged, unnecessary, wasteful, poorly run, captured by the interests of actors advancing their own agendas contrary to our own, or a threat to our nation’s sovereignty, freedoms, and general prosperity,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement.

3. more illegal acts?

Where we involved with those organizations by Congressional mandate? If so, it is legal for dump to just cancel it all?

4. "They are advancing their own agendas"

What can you even say anymore about the hypocrisy of this admin?

trump shuns anything to do with helping poorer nations. Nothing to do with trying to save the planet. Nothing to do with decency. I would not be surprised if he tried to evict the United Nations from NY. Jared could turn that building into apartments for the wealthy. He's going to keep pissing off the rest of the world, and its going to come back and bite him in the ass. Our next president--a Democrat--is going to have a hell of a mess to clean up.
