US lobbies UN rights council forsaken by Trump, diplomats say Two months after President Donald Trump announced a halt to U.S. engagement with the United Nations Human Rights Council, Washington is influencing its work by applying pressure publicly and behind the scenes, seven diplomats and rights workers said.

"The U.S. seems to be trying to have it both ways. It doesn't want to pay for or participate in the U.N. but it still wants to boss it around," said Lucy McKernan, Deputy Director for United Nations at Human Rights Watch's Geneva office.

Two major news stories today involving women and girls who've ended their lives after experiencing abuse.

Approximately 3 women a week die by suicide as a direct result of domestic and sexual abuse, AS WELL AS the 3 women a week who are killed by men.
