In March, First Lady Melania Trump is set to preside over the United Nations Security Council.
According to CNN, the First Lady will preside in early March, once the U.S. assumes the Security Council’s rotating presidency. She will do so “to emphasize education’s role in advancing tolerance and world peace.”
“Mrs. Trump’s leadership will mark the first time a sitting U.S. First Lady presides over the Security Council as members consider education, technology, peace, and security,” CNN quoted a press release as saying.
The Council’s meeting will be called “Children, Technology, and Education in Conflict.”

However, not everyone is so happy to see the First Lady in that position.
The First Lady has absolutely no business in a UN Security Council meeting. She has not been confirmed by the Senate to be an Ambassador. This is flagrantly unconstitutional, and signals a complete disregard for the UN itself. https://t.co/Gh5dixHClO

The trip to the UN will follow the completion of the box office run of the First Lady’s documentary, Melania, which arrived in theaters in January. While the film had a successful opening weekend, it is now almost entirely out of theaters.
“On Thursday, the last day of general release, “Melania’ made $70,000 or $59 per theater,” Showbiz411 reported this week. “That brought the grand total to $15.9 million. Amazon spent $75 million on the boondoggle, and it’s all evaporated. But Jeff Bezos doesn’t care. He paid the Trumps $40 million, and got what he wanted for future business deals.” The film will eventually land on Prime Video for streaming.
