Trump hints at cutting WHO funding over coronavirus handling
2020-04-08
[FOXNEWS] President Trump suggested Tuesday that he might consider cutting funding for the World Health Organization over its handling of the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
crisis and alleged role in helping China downplay the severity of the outbreak.

“The W.H.O. really blew it. For some reason, funded largely by the United States, yet very China centric. We will be giving that a good look. Fortunately I rejected their advice on keeping our borders open to China early on. Why did they give us such a faulty recommendation?” he tweeted.

#10  I'm in this boneyard about thirty years ago with my brother; he did the hunting and I had to lug the tools around. I think it was Charger or Monte Carlo parts we were hunting for. We come up to this vehicle, a white Jeep (like the ones they used) and someone spray painted the letters "U N" on the passenger door. This guy had an awesome sense of humor, and that's what should happen to the UN - dead & stripped in a boneyard.
