Trump Has a New Enemy: The UN

The president goes to war with the media...again. The son of a president is accused of accepting bribes for access to his father...again. And Trump unloads on the UN...is anyone else getting deja vu? That and more in this week's America Uncovered headlines. Welcome to America Uncovered, I'm Chris Chappell. I hope you're sitting down, because it's my unfortunate duty to inform you of an unprecedented fact. A revelation that will change everything in this country—nay, the world—forever. President Trump isn't the biggest fan of the mainstream media. I know. I'm also shocked you just now learned this. Who wouldn't love publications that say things like, Noah's Ark Resting Place 100% Confirmed? That's definitely not hyperbolic clickbait. And it makes me trust the news and scientists more. Last week, Trump actually banned CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from the White House. As a result of their constant reporting fake news, media outlets shouldn't be able to constantly write or report fiction and lies. Yeah, you leave the fiction and the lying to the politicians. On a completely, totally, definitely separate note, Mr. Trump, could you make that $5,000 check you'd said we all get if Republicans win the midterms out to America and cover to LLC? Thanks. The media companies responded in the most American way possible. Okay, no, they didn't do a mass shooting at a McDonald's. The second most American way possible. They sued, citing a blatant violation of the First Amendment. Which raises the question, does Freedom of the Press actually give them the right to have access to the White House? I mean, Trump isn't telling them they can't do press things, just that they can't be in what is currently his home. Biden also banned conservative media he didn't like. A federal judge, though, ordered the White House to restore access to the media outlets, but the reporters say the White House violated this order and still blocked them. Because Trump views court orders the same way terrible South Florida drivers view stop signs. Just a suggestion. Now Trump having a spat with the media is about as surprising as Clavicular being a creep. By the way, if you don't know who Clavicular is, good. Moving on. What is surprising about this story is that many other mainstream media companies stood together in solidarity with the banned media channels, by suspending White House pool coverage. Man, they went full New Yorkers in Spider-Man and said, you mess with one of us, you mess with all of us. But hey, who needs reporters? Trump can get along just fine without them. Let's listen in on this ribbon cutting ceremony. What? Project from your diaphragm, sir. Trump, being Trump, decided not to relent and instead launched Trump TV, a 24-7 greatest hits channel. And he went the same route as stand-up comedians rejected by Netflix and put it on YouTube. I'd say this is authoritarian-coded state-sponsored TV. Except it isn't TV, it isn't even a streaming channel, so it's not scary so much as it is so sad it's kind of funny. Also this isn't the first time the White House press pool stuck up for each other. In October 2009, Fox News was excluded from interviewing then-President Obama's Executive Paysar Kenneth R. Feinberg. In response, the other networks refused to do the interview. I guess the media that tricks together, sticks together. On the plus side for Trump, with no press pool at the White House, he won't have to answer as many questions about his son Donald Trump Jr.'s Bahamas wedding that was reportedly secretly bankrolled by Russian oligarch Umar Kremlin. Who's close to Putin? Republican Senator John Curtis called for an investigation, saying it's only right since the Republicans nearly wore out the subpoena machine investigating Hunter Biden's foreign relationships. No Matt, Hunter's FOREIGN relationships, not the ones he filmed that were on his laptop. But hey, if you're worried about this being a similar alleged quid pro quo like we were all worried about with Hunter, you can relax. As I understand it, he paid him back, he didn't want to have that, so I hear he paid him back. See trust us bro, it was just a friend giving a gift and he totally paid him back. And even if he didn't, well, you can't implicate the president over this, because he didn't even attend his son's wedding. You say absentee father, I say plausible deniability. With everything going on right now, Trump might be thinking, ugh, just shoot me now. Which according to a recent poll, would make almost a quarter of Democrats happy. 23% said they'd have a very positive reaction to Trump being assassinated. And 45% said they'd have a very positive reaction to Trump dying overnight in his sleep. I for one am shocked. That it's that low. Turns out Democrats aren't nearly as violent as we all thought. A political storm is brewing. But literal storms are brewing, too, thanks to this year's Super El Nino. That's right, it's not a regular El Nino, it's a Super El Nino. Which I think is only topped by a Super El Nino 2 Turbo Championship Edition. It is forecast that this Super El Nino will release massive amounts of heat from the Pacific Ocean and disrupt weather patterns. As a result, California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency, preparing California for a very wet winter that could lead to flooding and mudslides. Which is exactly what states of emergency are for. Things that could happen. If the White House press pool was there, I'm sure President Trump would respond by threatening to levy tariffs on the climate phenomenon, and ultimately renaming it El America. That's not the only thing Trump wants to rename. At the UN General Assembly in New York City, Trump presented a new name for AI. From this point forward, all of United States documents, and hopefully the world's, will be changed to use the much more accurate term, super, as opposed to artificial. Super intelligence dash SI. So does that mean its ultimate form will be Super Intelligence 2 Turbo Championship Edition? I gotta say, I think SI is just going to be confused with Sports Illustrated. Especially since they're both known for putting people in bikinis. Trump made a lot of news during his UN speech. CNN covered it, to Trump's surprise. I'm surprised that CNN is here covering me. You shouldn't be here. You should not be here covering me. You said you weren't going to cover me. You shouldn't be covering me. Come on, you know they couldn't resist seeing Trump tell the Islamic Republic he would crush them right to their face. Do I annihilate the Islamic Republic? And do it quickly? Are they never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again? Do I drive them into hell with no chance of survival and no hope of future greatness or generations? That's a spicy headline. And then Argentinian President Javier Mille said this about the UN. It's become a useless organization whose only purpose is to sustain a cast of fatally Forget bombs. Unleash Mille on Iran. The IRGC will be begging for mercy within minutes. But Trump's ultimate point was this war, sorry, military operation, could only end with the US destroying Iran or making a deal with them. And Trump says he believes they will make a deal immediately after the midterms. Trump accused Iran of intentionally prolonging the conflict to make him and Republicans look bad. Which, yeah, that actually makes sense. The Iran military operation is wildly unpopular. If they can just stall for a while, Congress will go blue by default, yay two-party system, and Trump will face an even bigger uphill battle for what he's doing in Iran. The Iranian president said in a speech to the UN that Iran will never surrender. Yep, definitely stalling to make Republicans look bad. Of course, for anyone at the UN siding with Iran, it might be worth reminding them about Iran's long history of human rights violations, since just last year, the UN made Iran a member of the Advisory Committee on the UN Human Rights Council. What are they advising them on, how to more efficiently violate human rights? You can save tons of time digging mass graves instead of individual ones. This is almost as dumb as making China an actual member of the UN Human Rights Council. But it's not like Republicans need any help making Republicans look bad. We need somebody who will fight back against the fart left. Oh no. Fart left? Man, J.D. If you're trying to be the next Trump, you have to work on your insulting nicknames, my dude. I just called them the fart left, not the fart left. I promise that was an accident. Oh no, now you're immediately walking back and saying it was a mistake. The only thing worse than making a dumb joke is admitting you only made a joke by accident. Well, at least this speech couldn't get any more embarrassing. Alright, you have been listening to Vice President Vance talking to voters ahead of the midterms in Battleground, North Carolina. He's in Greensboro this afternoon. We will bring you right back to this rally if he starts to make news. Oh no. Now Fox is basically yanking him off their channel like Fozzie Bear bombing on The Muppet Show. This is more brutal than anything Iran could ever do. But the bit about Iran wasn't even the most fiery rant Trump gave at his speech at the UN. Because there was also this. It is deeply ironic that the United Nations has an entire institution, the UNESCO group of people and countries devoted to protecting cultural heritage, yet with their ceaseless promotion of mass migration, these globalists are actively destroying the greatest cultures and most extraordinary heritage in all of history. There is no human right to illegal immigration, but there is a right to remain a sovereign nation. By the way, if you don't know what UNESCO is, good, moving on. I guess I should explain. UNESCO, or the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization, says it's devoted to world peace and security through cooperation. But like a milk dud, that sounds nice on paper until you bite into it. Kiss your teeth goodbye. The US has had a tumultuous history with the organization, with Ronald Reagan pulling the US out of UNESCO in 1984 over, among other reasons, perceived anti-Western biases. Though George W. Bush led the US in rejoining in 2003, until Trump pulled us out in 2017. And Biden put us back in in 2023. And Trump announced we'd be leaving again, taking effect at the end of the year. The US's relationship with UNESCO should just be called In-N-Out, because Trump just went in on them animal style. That one was for all my California viewers out there, who are currently living in a state of emergency because there might be floods. Another major issue Trump has with UNESCO is how it constantly criticizes Israel's treatment of Palestinians. Now, I'm not saying they're wrong or right for condemning Israel. Mostly because I hear staying silent on that issue will keep Macklemore away from you. But it is interesting that UNESCO is calling out Israel for alleged human rights violations when they have nations in their Human Rights and Cultural Committees that have, let's just call it, less than stellar human rights records. Including Syria, Saudi Arabia, and, you guessed it, China! So Trump calling them out for promoting certain cultures while criticizing others makes sense from this perspective. It's not a good look for UNESCO. I'd say they should try improving their looks by reaching out to Clavicular, but he's a bit tied up at the moment. But what do you think? Leave your comment below.
