US expected to disengage from UN's Human Rights Council

Makes sense.

Our president likes torture, war crimes, and police brutality and is a big fan of the thugs who rule in NK, China, the Philippines, Turkey, and Russia.

The US is expected to disengage with the UN Human Rights Council over anti-Israel bias, a senior US official, a diplomatic source and several activists tell CNN.

The announcement is expected as soon as Tuesday, the sources said.

The anticipated move follows months of talks between the US and UN member states in New York and Geneva, where the Human Rights Council is based, on reforming the agenda of the council. 

In addition to concerns about agenda items singling out Israel, the US also wanted more stringent criteria for membership and the ability to kick countries that have egregious human rights records off the council.
