The document describes a mechanism resembling the “purchase” of influence: standard membership in the Board of Peace is limited to three years and depends on the will of the chairman. This restriction is lifted for states that contribute more than US$1 billion in cash to the fund within the first year.
“Decisions would be taken by a majority, with each member state present getting one vote, but all would be subject to the chairman’s approval,” Bloomberg says.
Pay a billion to get a vote, and everyone gets a vote…
But trump can overrule any vote…
And he can kick anyone out that he wants, so if you ever go against his opinion of the moment, he’ll kick you out.
Why the fuck would any country pay this?
Why the fuck would any country pay this?
Same reason they would gift Trump an airplane?
Because they couldn’t find a buyer?
Because it would be a shame if the military had to pay a little visit to your country if you don’t.
Also, guess what? Tariffs!
It’s another invitation to bribe him.
So a protection racket, in other words.
Setup by the dollar store godfather wannabe
Ever since trump got elected, the news has been either bizarre, devastating, hilarious, insane, removed, cringe, maddening…
Can that heart attack come already? Come on, McDonald’s hamburgers, do your job
Make news boring again
Heart Attack would be nice, but the men next in line are worse.
Absolutely fucking terrible protection racket if that’s what it is.
The US spends 7tn per year on government spending. Even if the entire UN ponied up a billion each, every year, that would be less than 200bn in additional revenue. Not nothing, but barely a fraction of the 5tn in tax revenue the US government takes in every year.
That’s like the mafia hitting you up for $50 a month.
… oh my god this isn’t an onion article.
We are in hell.
We are in hell.
Always was, just this time Trumpler is exacerbating the overall situation - essentially driving us deeper into the underworld.
Outside of the overt extortion for entry bit, how would this be any different than the current UN where the US unilaterally controls basically every decision or its consequences?
It’s called the board of peace so we can assume it will be a global Mafia demanding protection money, and going to war whenever it’s the more profitable outcome.
The kind of group that should be nuked from orbit.
So no different than the status quo where Team America World Police does whatever they want whenever.
But this one exists to launder money to him and his cronies
It’s his same old song. Tear down what already exists, then huck a new version of it out for the very low price of $19.84.
I’m surprised he hasn’t added his name to the title of it yet.
That’s a good point. He still has time to put his name on it though.
UN SC is not unilaterally controlled by the US, other permanent members get a veto too. That’s why he would like to replace that.
“Bored of peace” coalition
Trump doesn’t honor any agreement he signs,why would anyone be stupid enough to agree to this.
He will just keep increasing the price.
Nonsense. The price is firm. It’s two billion dollars and not one cent more. And that’s pretty cheap. Three billion, for such a good protection service? Very cheap! Just five billion!
On Friday, the White House presented the composition of “a founding Executive Board”, consisting exclusively of figures loyal to Trump: his Middle East adviser Steve Witkoff, his son-in-law Jared Kushner, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and former UK prime minister Tony Blair.
It’s astonishing how often Tony Blair manages to find new ways to be a massive fucking disappointment. It’s like he’s already concluded that he’s going to hell for the whole Iraq thing so he’d may as well lean into it by being a huge cunt while he’s alive.
I thought the same thing. I mean the whole Iraq thing could be seen as a misjudgement in hindsight. Now though he just looks evil.
The words in the picture are wrong. It should be:
I’m going to build my own UN with
little children and more little children!Every pro Trumper I know also has a deep fear of the UN or some shadowy organisation controlling the world. Every conversation ended up with “Well at least he will take back power from the elites”. Now Trump declares he wants to rule the world, and outlines their exact fears as his plan and they are silent. No comment. Why are people so stupid? And pathetically so. It not even hard to see how ridiculous this guy is, but people are still bowing down to it.
Literally just tribalism. Trump is on “their team”, therefore whatever he says is good.
I still remember when people were fearmongering about Obama enacting martial law.
Trump is a genius inventor: he keeps coming up with new ways to take bribes
It’s a coin operated system. Insert $25M for the next 6 days of peace.
And it won’t be by GDP either. He will ask the exact same amount from each country. If you’re too small to pay, you get conquered
Thanks. I hate it.
LMAO. It’s so cursed. I love it.
Is he gonna give himself an award for this too?
No need. Maria Corina Machado already gave him hers.
First one trump invited is ofcourse putin … ???
A “Board of Peace” membership and a 100 Euro bill are worth 100 Euros combined.
