UN Rubber
Stamps Corrupt Budget Stealing US Funds as
Guterres and Korosi Ban Press

UNGATE, Dec 30 –
How useless is today's United
Nations? They couldn't even
vote on December 23 on taking
(largely stealing) the
billions of dollars from US
taxpayers and others.
But on December 30, they did.
It was chaired by
UN PGA Csaba Korosi, who
banned Inner City Press from
his Civil Society Town Hall,
after his spokesperson told
Inner City Press it could
appeal to USG Gilles Michaud,
who has yet to respond.
On the afternoon
of December 30 in the UN
basement where Inner City
Press reported on these deals
until it was ousted and
banned, dysfunctional
objections were made about
funding for mandates in Syria,
Ethiopia
and Palestine - Israel said it
wouldn't speak and US would
vote no; it spoke, and US
abstained and praised the UN.
More US
gushing: Ambassador Chris Lu
at AmbUNReform tweeted,
"And just like that: UN budget
has been adopted by Fifth
Committee and will go to
General Assembly One key
reform adopted is moving to an
annual budget on a permanent
basis. It’s a critical reform
that furthers transparency and
accountability."
But today's UN
displays neither, and the US
Mission of Lu and Linda
Thomas-Greenfield has done
nothing about US-based
investigative media Inner City
Press being banned by Antonio
Guterres.
In the GA, there
was Portugal, bloviating

There was Japen,
representive advertising
the New York Giants of
football, but Japan Mission
not responded to Inner City
Press' request for access to
its Ambassador Ishikane
Kimihiro's January 3 press
conference as president of the
Security Council.
None of the
documents were available to
the public, as billions of
dollars were being taken. It
was to resume at 6 pm.
These are the
budget meetings Inner City
Press used to cover and
expose, in person, until
corrupt UNSG Antonio Guterres
had it roughed up and thrown
out while it covered the
budget negotiations in
2018.
Now no one
covers it, which is how the UN
likes it. But they still can't
agree how to steal. UNPGA
Csaba Korosi, who banned Inner
City Press from his December 2
"Civil Society Town Hall,"
issued a lame speech, cravenly
promoted by colonial Belgium's
mission to the UN.
Inner City
Press' December 5 appeal
of being banned, sent just as
Korosi's spokesperson Paulina
Kubiak told it to, has not
even been acknowledge.
Today's UN is
totally corrupt. And Inner
City Press will stay on it,
insisting its appeal be
granted, and either way
reporting on the UN's
corruption. Watch this
