If anything is eerily reminiscent of Hitler here, this is. One of the things the Nazis did in their first year in power was to hold a referendum on exiting the League of Nations.

Obviously, the League of Nations was not nearly the same body as the UN, but the echoes are there.
I do hope it's just a crazy no-hoper's bill, but I'm not really expecting hopes to come true right now.

Actually submitted to congress by the new lot, and on the official congressional website. I'm not really sure how the US system works, and this may be something like a UK private members bill which has virtually zero chance of getting through, but still. It's a pretty bold statement of intent.
