Pelosi vows to fight Trump’s ‘illegal’ WHO funding cut
NY Post ^ | April 15, 2020

Posted on 04/15/2020 2:03:29 PM PDT by deplorableindc

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says Democrats will “swiftly” challenge what she called President Trump’s “senseless” and “illegal” suspension of US funding to the World Health Organization.

Trump stopped the funding on Tuesday, saying the WHO needs “meaningful reforms” after failing to report accurate coronavirus data from China, worsening the pandemic’s punch to the US.

But Pelosi said Wednesday the United Nations body is essential to battling COVID-19.

“This is another case, as I have said, of the President’s ineffective response, that ‘a weak person, a poor leader, takes no responsibility. A weak person blames others,'” Pelosi said in a statement.

She probably gets a cut of the 200 million the WHO spent on First Class travel.

President Trump knows that WHO is part of the swamp. And Who proved it when they let this Virus spread. Likewise Pelosi had the same motives for wanting it to spread. Look at how it Greatly it helps the democrats when they failed with Russia Gate and Impeachment Gate.

I don’t believe that anyone can name even one good thing that WHO did in regards to this virus.

Here comes Impeachment 2.0! As with Impeachment 1.0, it will accomplish nothing more than to help President Trump get reelected.

yeah that should be another winning issue for November :)

That's what I was thinking. How many voters will think, "We need to spend even more money on the WHO and the UN"? Then again, maybe I should read my own Tagline.

How is cutting funding *illegal*?

How is it illegal to NOT give money to someone that they didn’t earn?

Pelosi isn’t in charge of anything!

I don't think that's occurred to her yet.

On "The Five" today, Jesse Waters had the best rundown on the perfidies and utter corruption of the commies running the WHO that I've heard so far.

He was brilliant.....wow, did he ever expose this bunch that's been fleecing us for years.

I someone could find his brief but eye-opening report on video somewhere and post it here. Nobody has laid it out in straight language like Jessie did today.

Ms. Pelosi has a very large Chinese population in San Francisco, many of them depend on her blindness as to their illegal drug and slave trade....

The House allocates the money, it’s the discretion of the executive whether it actually gets spent.


Well then what was all that crap about Trump delaying payment to the Ukraine during that BS fake impeachment? The rats pushed that meme 24/7.

Ahem...

Squeaker Pelosi is one of the most hysterical blamers and malignant accusers that we've seen in our lifetimes. (Others too, of course, but the Squeaker is right up there with them.)

For executive branch offices, yes. But if Congress approves funding for the UN and related agencies then the administration can delay the funds but can't stop them.

Just like she claimed that:

* funding the Kennedy Center was “essential to fighting COVID-19”,
* amnestying all the illegals and registering them to vote was “essential to fighting COVID-19”
* AOC’s Green New Deal was “essential to fighting COVID 19”
* Full Marxist medicine was “essential to fighting COVID 19”
* Banning guns was “essential to fighting COVID-19”

Then the MI governor says motor boats were banned to fight the COVID-19.

Pelosi: "A weak person blames others."

What does that say about you Nan? That's the name of your game from way back — "blame others". Nan, you spend 24/7 blaming Trump for everything from your yeast infection to the shortage of Jeni's ice cream.

So since we’re dropping the WHO does that mean they no longer pass on information on Covid-19 to us and we’re under no obligation to give information to them?

Trump should announce he is cutting all funding for the United Nations and kicking them out of New York City. Hopefully Nancy will have a brain aneurysm.

There are surely good,decent people in San Fransicko. Not many...but there are some.Maybe we can secretly warn those good people in advance...so they can flee...and then blow the city to hell.

I mean,it's halfway there already.
