As Twitchy reported earlier, journalists in the Rose Garden began to gnash their teeth and rend their garments in anguish upon hearing President Trump say that he was withholding funding of the World Health Organization — during a pandemic! — pending a probe of its role in “severely mismanaging and covering up the spread of the coronavirus.”
President Trump explains why he is halting funding to the @WHO:
-They failed to obtain & share accurate information
-Failed to investigate credible reports of human-to-human transmission and parroted CCP Propaganda instead
-They were silent on the disappearance of Whistleblowers pic.twitter.com/MToSDQbcRn— Benny (@bennyjohnson) April 14, 2020
The United Nations Secretary-General has written a strongly worded statement saying that now is not the time “to look back fully to understand how such a disease emerged and spread its devastation so quickly across the globe, and how all those involved reacted to the crisis.”

“Obviously, in such conditions, it is possible that the same facts have had different readings by different entities,” he wrote, cryptically. Like China telling the WHO that the coronavirus couldn’t be transmitted from animals to humans? Facts like those?

And we should care because?? He better watch it or we can stop funding there too and seize that nice piece of New York real estate to help recoup our bad investment.

Too bad. President Trump is hopefully considering withdrawing from the UN and defunding it. It remains an American experiment that failed.

He's not happy because he knows the UN is next, and it should be.

The UN Secretary is just projecting because the UN is next. Globalism is dead.

They might want to have a talk with @DrTedros and ask why he just lost a half billion in US funding for the @WHO
and then stop being anti-USA shills for a while and they might get funded again!

I guess he can whip out his wallet and cover the difference then. I have no doubt that he will ??

Now seems like a really good time to take a hard look at the WHO and decide if it’s worth our investment.
