ACCOUNTABILITY FOR AMERICAN TAXPAYERS: President Donald J. Trump is holding the World Health Organization (WHO) accountable by putting a hold on United States funding.

• President Trump is placing a hold on all funding to the WHO while its mismanagement of the coronavirus pandemic is investigated.
• The American taxpayers provide $400 million to $500 million in funding to the WHO each year, but the WHO has failed them.
  • China, on the other hand, provides just around one-tenth of the funding that the United States provides.
• The American people deserve better from the WHO, and no more funding will be provided until its mismanagement, cover-ups, and failures can be investigated.
• President Trump will continue fighting the coronavirus outbreak and will redirect global health aid to others directly engaged in the fight.

INVESTIGATING THE WHO’S FAILED RESPONSE: The WHO’s response to the coronavirus outbreak has been filled with one misstep and cover-up after another.

• Despite the fact that China provides just a small fraction of the funding that the United States does, the WHO has shown a dangerous bias towards the Chinese government.
• The WHO repeatedly parroted the Chinese government’s claims that the coronavirus was not spreading between humans, despite warnings by doctors and health officials that it was.
  • Taiwan contacted the WHO on December 31 after seeing reports of human-to-human transmission of the coronavirus, but the WHO kept it from the public.
  • The WHO praised the Chinese government’s response throughout January and claimed there was no human-to-human transmission, despite the fact that doctors in Wuhan were warning there was.
  • The WHO decided on January 22 that the coronavirus did not pose a Public Health Emergency of International Concern, all while praising China’s response.
• The WHO put political correctness over life-saving measures by opposing travel restrictions.
  • The WHO made the disastrous decision to oppose travel restrictions from China and other countries—despite applauding travel restrictions within China itself—leading to further spread of the virus internationally.

STRUCTURAL ISSUES AND NECESSARY REFORMS: The WHO has longstanding structural issues that must be addressed before the organization can be trusted again.

• The WHO has shown it was not prepared to prevent, detect, and respond to a severe infectious disease crisis like this.
• The WHO lacks the structure to ensure accurate information and transparent data sharing from members, which makes it vulnerable to misinformation and political influence.
• The United States seeks to refocus the WHO on fulfilling its core missions of preparedness, response, and stakeholder coordination.
• The United States is also calling for reforms to promote transparency and data sharing, hold member states accountable for abiding by the International Health Regulations, increase access to medicines, and counter China’s outsized influence on the organization.

Top guy is socialist, globalist activist from Ethiopia which has strong links to China. No. 2 guy is Chinese and connected to CCP.
They shouldn’t get a dime; enemy organization.

[DoodleDawg]

So if we’re no longer providing any funding then we’ve basically quit our membership in the WHO. And if we’ve quite then why do we care who runs it or how efficiently they perform?

[Starboard]

Almost as concerning is that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is the SECOND largest funder of WHO. They have enough influence to push their globalist agenda and pursue socialist goals that do not coincide with American interests.

To heck with accountability. Why wouldn’t we want to just pull the plug on an organization that was an accomplice in one of our country’s biggest disasters? Maybe we’ll take a look in another ten years and see if they’ve become more ethical and honest. First show us positive results and then we might re-consider. Words mean nothing.

[Peter ODonnell]

Accountability from globalists ... hey it’s worth a try.

[Tennessee Nana]

Nana Is Demanding Accountability From the World Health Organization...

My life has been cancelled for the next 6 months...

Nana is NOT happy...

[takebackaustin]

It occurred to me a better name for the organization would be just HO.

[dsrtsage]

Globalists will scream at volume 11, but what they don’t get is this is exactly what conservatives have all but given up seeing in their life time.

[grumpygresh]

Gates has an obvious COI with respect top vaccines. Anyone that’s done a cursory search on him should be highly suspect of his globalist motives.

If he’s going to be the poster boy for vaccines, even if the vaccine is good, a lot of people wont accept it if Gates in involved.

US - $500 million with a population of 328 million is $1.52 paid to WHO per citizen.

China - $50 million with a population of 1.435 billion is 3.5 cents paid to WHO per citizen.

[Sergio]

For long time politicians (of both parties) and bureaucrats, accountability is like sunlight to a vampire.

[SMARTY]

Accountability. Why not?? WE pay those jerks

[Yaelle]

Love this.

The gates are evil

Many years ago, my AF brother told me to not trust the UN. At the time I was a know it all teenager who thought he did not know what he was talking about, but he was right. They should be kicked out of this country and told to stay out.

[V V Camp Enari 67-68]

Top Guy is a thru and thru communist. He was a high ranking member of a radical communist rebel group in the 90’s that was attempting to overthrow the Ethiopian Dictator at the time. The organization was listed on the US terrorist list. Just read this yesterday.

[Starboard]

I can’t help but wonder if Gates feels any sense of remorse having significantly funded an organizatiuon that, at the very least, facilitated China’s deception that resulted the deaths of tens of thousands of Americans. Gates is already defending WHO and probably won’t lose any sleep over’s it’s complicity , if he had a conscience or any sense of ethics he would.

David Horowitz, FrontPageMagazine, April 17,2020:

Who is director Tedros? According to The Hill, he is not a medical doctor and had no global health management experience before China shoe-horned him into the director’s seat at WHO. According to The Hill – a publication with which Nancy Pelosi is surely familiar - Tedros is an Ethiopian communist and terrorist, who served in the infamous Marxist dictatorship known as the Derg, which slaughtered thousands of its subjects.

He went on to serve as an executive member of the Tigray Liberation Front, an organization listed in the Global Terrorism database, and as Ethiopia’s foreign minister – that is, for a country known as “Little China,” because the Chinese Communists have invested in it so heavily and made it a strategic bridge in their imperialist designs on the African continent. Just as they have made the World Health Organization a strategic bridge in their designs on the rest of the world.

As we have said 10K times before, "Trump is right again!"
