U.N. Expert Disappointed in U.S. Coronavirus Response: ‘Must Improve Strategy’
Breitbart - Politics ^ | 4-20-2020 | Simon Kent

The U.N. Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights has warned significant portions of America face destitution unless Congress takes “far-reaching” actions to stem the financial damage driven by the Chinese coronavirus epidemic.

“Low-income and poor people face far higher risks from the coronavirus due to chronic neglect and discrimination, and a muddled, corporate-driven, federal response [that] has failed them”, said Philip Alston, who made a fact-finding visit to the U.S. in 2017 and in 2018 delivered a scathing report into income inequality in America, as Breitbart News reported.

This time he painted a picture of record layoffs, a weak safety net, and a Trump administration “focusing primarily on businesses and the well-off” in a critical report delivered to the globalist organization.

"UN Expert on extreme poverty and human rights" did a fact finding trip in the US in 2017, and has the gall to blame it mostly on Trump admin.

Useless "experts" a dime a dozen.

The greatest oxymoron of all time in all multiverses has to be “UN Expert”.

UN (irrelevant concept) and ‘Expert’ (meaningless word)

Somehow, they belong together.

The U.N. Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights.....

Definition of Rapporteur:
In Model UN, a rapporteur is a member of the dais, typically alongside a Chair and/or Director. Their duties are mostly procedural, such as taking roll call, counting votes, keeping watch over caucus time, and other administrative items like organizing working papers and adding names to a Speakers' List.

What is he an expert on again ????

The USA is so horrible that it has to fend off 20,000 illegals a day trying to get into this supposed horrible country. Where else on the planet do you see thousands of people trying to enter an unjust, racist, discriminatory, no-safety-net country?

With the UN it always boils down to how much of your money they can steal.

Wouldn’t it be nice if one result of all this was to absolutely drive a stake through the heart of the UN and it’s WHO?

So does he have any suggestion?

Or is he just wise enough to tell everyone they’re not good enough...?
