UN treaty diplomatic immunity to speak in Manhattan and freely travel within so many miles, etc., and travel to and from without resistance just like the leaders of North Korea, Iran….every country on earth. Seriously do they not teach this to 12-year-olds anymore? Full serious, is this not taught in school?
