Trump teases announcement on World Health Organization after threatening funding
Fox News ^ | April 10 2020 | Brooke Singman

President Trump on Friday teased an announcement on the World Health Organization (WHO) “sometime next week” after suggesting his administration might cut U.S. funding to the WHO over frustration with the organization throughout the coronavirus pandemic.

"We are going to have an announcement on the World Health Organization sometime next week," Trump said at the White House Coronavirus Task Force briefing on Friday afternoon. "As you know, we have given them approximately $500 million a year, and we are going to be talking about that subject next week. We'll have a lot to say about it.”

Later during the briefing, the president was asked about the announcement, saying he would discuss it next week “in great detail,” and that “he didn’t want to do it today, on Good Friday... or before we have all the facts.”

With WHO seeking an additional $1 Billion funding boost from International Governments, I certainly hope Trump just cancels all funding to WHO and then boots their collective arses out of the US. But lo, he will probably seek Tedros’s removal for continued US funding. Sad.

Of course he was asked to reveal the content so as that the MSM could try and earn their keep from their masters at the Chinese ministry of propaganda and give them a heads up.

WHO sucks. But I don’t want to see them become the straw man punching bag for rage that should properly be directed at the ChiComs and Tony Fauci.

All funding issues go through the House of Representatives.

My advice to Trump, don’t be a fool playing games, kill all funding permanently to WHO.

We are going to have an announcement on the World Health Organization sometime next week,

Which means probably never.
