Rubio should sanction most UN officials
Watchdog backs Rubio’s sanctions on UN official over ‘shameful efforts’ targeting US, Israel
The Biden-era kid gloves are off.
On Wednesday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the United States is imposing sanctions on Francesca Albanese, the controversial United Nations (UN) Special Rapporteur on Palestinian rights.
“Albanese’s campaign of political and economic warfare against the United States and Israel will no longer be tolerated,” Rubio posted on X. “We will always stand by our partners in their right to self-defense.”
Albanese has pushed to haul U.S. and Israeli officials before the International Criminal Court (ICC), drawing outrage from lawmakers, diplomats, and human rights advocates alike.
In multiple reports and public comments since her 2022 appointment, Albanese has accused Israel of apartheid and dismissed Hamas violence as “not surprising.” According to her July 2025 report to the UN Human Rights Council, Albanese claimed the U.S. may be ‘liable for the international crime of aggression’ for President Trump’s strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites.
Us usual, she has nothing bad to say about Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, or any Islamic extremists.
Hillel Neuer, Executive Director of UN Watch, weighed in with a statement to Fox News Digital, writing: “This is a bold and courageous move by Secretary Rubio. No UN official — in this case, a purported official, as her reappointment was illegal — has ever been sanctioned before in history. Then again, no UN official has ever been condemned for Holocaust distortion and antisemitism by France, Germany, Canada, and both Democratic and Republican US administrations.”
“She will never again spread her poison on American campuses or enter the country. Justice is served. Good triumphs over evil.”
Good
(State Department) She has recently escalated this effort by writing threatening letters to dozens of entities worldwide, including major American companies across finance, technology, defense, energy, and hospitality, making extreme and unfounded accusations and recommending the ICC pursue investigations and prosecutions of these companies and their executives. We will not tolerate these campaigns of political and economic warfare, which threaten our national interests and sovereignty.
The United States will continue to take whatever actions we deem necessary to respond to lawfare, to check and prevent illegitimate ICC overreach and abuse of power, and to protect our sovereignty and that of our allies.
Albanese is being designated pursuant to Section 1(a)(ii)(A) of Executive Order (E.O.) 14203.
Rubio doesn’t really say what the penalties are, but, most likely, per the EO, she will only be allowed to fly into a NYC airport and go right to UN property. She won’t be allowed to travel around the US at all. If she happens to own property, it can be seized. She may do no commerce with the US. Good riddance.
The non-Western civilization love them some non-Western civilization radicals while working in a wealthy Western civilization nation in a somewhat dreary Western civilization building.
Well of course Mssrs Trump, Netanyahu and their lickspittle Rubio want to discredit Ms Albanese. She has accused Israel of occupying Gaza, apartheid, genocide and ethnic cleannsing. All apparently true.
The anti-palestinians or Muslim-haters don’t like being called out. They hate free speech! Ms Albanese said/wrote some stuff, true at that, but that Trump, Netanyahoo and their lickspittle didn’t like!! She must be punished by these back street bullies! It’s what dicktaters do!!
Must’ve missed her diatribe on the Oct. 7, 2023 massacre.
Maybe this will help.
