The Who: "Hey we didn't lie. In fact we wrote a song abut not being fooled again. Oh well."

A star-studded televised concert featuring music legends and political figures has drawn angry online backlash for raising money for the controversial World Health Organization, amid allegations that the group is beholden to China and badly mishandled the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic.
The two-hour 'One World: Together at Home' event, led by the WHO and non-profit group 'Global Citizen' was broadcast across multiple television channels in the U.S. and overseas on Saturday.
The event's corporate sponsors and other donors have already given $150 million, earmarked for the WHO's COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund, organizers said.
Earlier this month, President Donald Trump pulled all U.S. funding for the WHO, accounting for about half of the group's budget, pending an investigation into the group's handling of the pandemic, and particularly its relationship with China.
That didn't stop, and perhaps encouraged, the who's-who lineup of stars who joined the One World concert, including Taylor Swift, Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, Beyonce, Oprah Winfrey, Idris Elba, Lizzo and Lady Gaga, who gushed that WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom was a 'superstar.'

Network ad revenues are tanking.
How much did the networks rake off the top????
I am watching Ballers during their free HBO month they are doing
So I will use the phrase...that would be a Baller move!
Thanks for posting these. The swamp is huge. China and WHO lied and thousands of people died.

Forgot to include that the Communist Chinese sent a record delegation to Davos
Yep, if you are a CCP cheerleader and want to quickly reduce the world's population. To him though, you are a useful idiot. Congratulations Lady Gag me with a spoon.
I started watching in in real time in the afternoon. The WHO propaganda sent the TV off within about 20 minutes.
Does anyone else think this whole thing was thought up in response to Trump withholding WHO Funds? I wonder if any of these morons were enlightened as to how much WHO spends on travel and salaries?
Still seeing commercials/videos of kids that are nothing but skeletons.
Why in this day and age would anyone be starving?
Like you said, “officials were either pocketing funds or giving it to warlords instead of going to the people.” AND STILL ARE.
LOL, you reminded me of this SNL classic:
Bill Clinton: [ chews his McMuffin ] Mmm.. that’s a good question.Yes, I do.. and let me tell you why. See, right now, we’re sending in..[ holds us McMuffin ] ..food.. [ puts McMuffin in front of Male Customer ]..to Somalia.. but it’s not getting to the people who need it because..[ brings McMuffin back to himself ] ..it’s being intercepted by the warlords.. [ chews McMuffin some more ] And it’s not just us. It’s other countries, too.. [ grabs a McNugget from another customer ] Your McNuggetis aid from Great Britain.. [ takes it to other customer, then gibbles itdown ] ..intercepted by warlords! [ grabs someone’s Filet-o-Fish ] This man’s Filet-o-Fish over here is relief from Italy.. [ pops it in his mouth ]..warlords! And you can send all the food you want.. [ grabs differentitems ] ..a McDLT, hot apple pie.. it’s just gonna end up with.. [ puts itall in his mouth ] ..the warlords! Now, with a broad-based international military force, we can make sure that the McRib sandwich.. [ grabs one andplaces it on someone’s tray ] ..gets to the people who need it. [ picksit up and gobbles it anyway ] Can I get a Coke?
interestingly I just watched *Out of Shadows* which sheds a whole new light on this sort of thing.
You can always count on these anti-American entertainer types to support and jump to the defense of any anti-American or communist person or organization

Agreed! However, liberals and rats are cheapskates, since they will always want to spend OPM (other people’s money)!
Attention whores’ desperate attempt to stay relevant.
It would be EASY to raise 150 Mil amongst the ‘star-studded’ crowd themselves, but no, they want YOU to fork over the money.
“music legends ... World Health Organization”
Didn’t watch, wouldn’t give a penny.
Merry Christmas...
LOL
You have a lot stronger stomach than I do. Thanks for posting this. Actually this could backfire in these peoples’ faces. Right now we have a huge number of Americans out of work. Small businesses are taking a beating with many closing their doors and people have had it with being told to stay home. These idiots get in front of a camera in their multimillion dollar homes and bloviate how they are giving the people some entertainment and ask for money for an organization that’s in bed with the CCP. Talk about cajones!!
