You can combine all 128 militaries and we can still spread freedom anywhere, anytime.

Instead of sending MS13 back home we should send them to UN countries that vote against us.

I'm anxious to see the UN try and enforce their ruling. They are about to realize just how little power they have.

Is there a list of how much aid goes to the countries who voted no?

We just acknowledged their legitimate capitol. Trump essentially agreed with BOTH political parties and the Obama Administration and did the right thing and the thing that the American people agreed with. Quit acting li8ke our hands were tied by diabolical Jews.
Nothing wrong with acknowledging their capital
but don't have your head in the sand if you don't think they have always played a part in our policies and them receiving an almost black check every year courtesy of the US tax payer.

There is a website you can check (an official government one too): LINK
Sorts it out by country, department, type of aid, etc.

That’s 5 more votes than we thought we’d get. Good news.

Man, a lot of countries called our bluff. Wonder if we follow through? We will look weak as hell if we don’t.

Western European and Scandinavian countries don't receive any aid from the US. Neither do Iran, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Canada or Australia. Only countries considered low and middle-income, based on their gross national income are eligible.

They know. It's symbolic and non-binding. They can't tell any member country where to place their embassy.

Sorry. You're either for us or against us.
We can cut your funding too.
Nah an abstention can be fine.
Ultimately, the US moving its embassy to Jerusalem is a matter between the US and Israel. No one else SHOULD have a say. What is the way to represent this in the vote? Abstaining.
If other countries voted appropriately this would pass 2-0 with a boatload of abstentions.
Look into the reasoning before we sweep all abstentions under one banner.

Pretty easy. We just march on to Jerusalem with our embassy while holding up the middle finger.

Check my earlier post which has a link from USAID. Their site says that Canada DOES get foreign aid (though not a lot).
I'm not shocked, though, that two different FedGov sites give two different responses. That's how we roll.

Yeah, very little. Looks like it's mostly energy and interior stuff.
