The UN Undermines American Sovereignty While Funding Illegal Migration

The United States not only hosts the United Nations headquarters, but is also the international organization’s greatest financial benefactor. In 2019, for example, American taxpayers sent the UN $11 billion, funding approximately one-fifth of their annual budget. All nations, including the United States, have the right to expect the UN to respect their sovereignty and interests. Instead, the UN not only continues to criticize everything from the reinstituting of the Migrant Protection Protocols (which is being done very reluctantly and with the intent to eventually terminate the Trump-era policy) to the recent Omicron travel ban on several African nations, but is actually funding illegal immigration into the U.S..
In a recent article in The Federalist, Todd Bensman described what he saw while visiting a migrant camp in Reynosa, Mexico, which is located on the opposite side of the Rio Grande river from McAllen, Texas. The senior national security fellow for the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) witnessed individuals working for (or with) the International Organization for Migration (IOM) – a part of the UN system – handing out cash debit cards to illegal border crossers.
“One of two workers at a plastic folding table inside the Reynosa camp, which was filled to capacity with at least 1,200 mostly U.S.-expelled Central Americans, said they were distributing the cards for IOM to help migrants waiting until they cross the Rio Grande at greater leisure to claim asylum, for which most will be declared ineligible years later. Many parents, for instance, got about $400 every 15 days, I was told, or $800 a month if they were still there to collect it, although the support level varied,” Bensman reports.
