If there’s anything with less credibility than the Biden-Harris administration, it’s the United Nations. The same organization that put Cuba and China on the UN Human Rights Council has been invited by Secretary of State Antony Blinken to send a representative to the United States and report back on contemporary racism in the country.
Responsible nations must not shrink from scrutiny of their human rights record. Rather, they should be transparent with the intent to grow and do better. That is why I'm announcing a formal invitation for @UN Special Rapporteur on contemporary forms of racism to visit the U.S.

The U.S. State Department has invited U.N. experts who investigate racism and minority issues to conduct an official visit to the United States, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Tuesday.
…
Blinken said the United States welcomed the U.N. Human Rights Council’s adoption on Tuesday of a resolution to address systemic racism against Africans and people of African descent in the context of law enforcement.
…
U.S. President Joe Biden, who won the White House with critical support from Black voters, made fighting racial inequality a key platform of his 2020 campaign.
The same Joe Biden who’s always saying racist things and getting away with it?
WTF is this.

Imagine believing that the UN is unbiased.

This is pure idiocy.
There is no secret. We as a society know our shortcomings and those of us who aren't dogmatic know pragmatic steps to bring redress.
But to invite a biased and corrupt institution to 'investigate' is madness.

Who cares what the UN has to say? One of the most corrupt organizations in the world. For heaven sakes they have China and Cuba on the Human Rights Council. They have no power in this country.
— Rich Kroeter (@rkroeter) July 14, 2021
They should have no power in this country. Heck, they should have no headquarters in this country.
Joe Biden’s priorities: getting the UN to investigate America for racism. Maybe the President should devote some energy to investigating the origins of #COVID19 https://t.co/xzgrQUqxoB
