Mike Waltz Vows to ‘Make the U.N. Great Again’ in Fiery Confirmation Hearing

Joshua Klein 15 Jul 2025

Former Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) delivered a blazing opening statement to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, promising to reform the bloated United Nations bureaucracy and counter China’s growing influence while pledging his confidence under President Trump’s leadership: “We can continue to spread peace and prosperity — and we can Make the U.N. Great Again.”

Testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for his nomination as U.N. Ambassador, the Green Beret veteran laid out a comprehensive vision for overhauling the international body that has “drifted from its core mission of peacemaking” after 80 years of existence.

Waltz didn’t mince words about the UN’s fiscal irresponsibility, noting:

    The UN’s revenue, overall revenue has quadrupled in the last 20 years. Yet, I would argue we have not seen a quadrupling of world peace.” He pointed out the stark inequality in funding, stating that “the US pays more than 183 countries combined. Meanwhile, 28 countries contribute just $37,000 and $5,000 to peacekeeping.

Want to de-bloat the UN?  Stop giving them American taxpayers' dollars.

The diplomats will come to heel to avoid having to return to their $h!th0le countries to work real jobs to maintain the UN lifesystyle they've become accustomed to.

When was it ever great?
Make the U.N. something other than a terrorism-supporting welfare queen suckling at the U.S. teat. That'll do.
