During his first term, Trump warned that member nations were not making their required contributions and insinuated they were on the verge of collapse.
The UN repeatedly rebuked US policy and then wondered why Trump suspended funding.
Ironically (or NOT) recently, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has warned that the organization could face “imminent financial collapse” unless member states pay their dues in full and on time or unless the underlying financial structure is fundamentally reformed.
“The crisis is deepening, threatening programme delivery and risking financial collapse. And the situation will deteriorate further in the near future,” Guterres said. “Either all Member States honour their obligations to pay in full and on time – or Member States must fundamentally overhaul our financial rules to prevent an imminent financial collapse,” he added.
LOL! Trump was right again.
Here’s the problem. We have been bankrolling the UN for decades.
And what has the US received in return?
The UN has been funded disproportionately by American taxpayers.
Adding insult to injury, we have seen policies coming out of that same body which are often openly hostile to US interests. That contradiction could only last so long.
Verge of Collapse
It has taken almost two generations to figure this out but you cannot build a permanent international bureaucracy assuming one country will always write the largest check to fund it.
And that’s regardless of behavior, efficiency, or accountability.
Because when confidence declines at home, foreign commitments are always the first to be questioned.
This historical pattern repeats with empires and reserve currency nations.
As a result, external spending gets cut when internal stress rises.
The global world order from post World War II is definitely a thing of the past.
Thank goodness for that.
Because the United States carried the financial burden for international structures in exchange for geopolitical influence.
But in today’s world, geopolitical influence has shifted to the East with China leading the charge while positioning themselves to be the next world reserve currency.
It won’t happen overnight because China currently doesn’t have a big enough bond market to support world reserve currency status…YET.
But it’s already “baked in the cake.”
And the financial collapse of the UN is another sign that old world order policies are outdated and living on borrowed time.
You should expect to see more evidence reflected in the global stock markets as volatility increases along with rising tensions surrounding the inevitable outbreak of WW3.
We believe it has already unofficially begun and was triggered under the O’Biden Regime.

Share this with a friend…even if they think the UN is a worthy organization. They’ll thank YOU later.
And tell them:
We’re Not Just About Finance
But we use finance to give you hope.
