Sen. Lindsey Graham wants to cut U.S. funding to the World Health Organization , the specialized agency of the United Nations responsible for international public health, unless it changes its leadership.
The WHO, which received 14.67 percent of its funding from the U.S. in 2018 and 2019, is currently led by Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, an Ethiopian microbiologist who has served as its Director-General since 2017. "I'm not going to support funding the WHO under its current leadership," Graham said during a Fox News appearance."They've been deceptive, they've been slow, and they've been Chinese apologists.
U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham speaks to members of the press after a Senate Republican luncheon in the Hart Senate Office Building March 19, 2020 on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC.His pledge echoes a similar threat made by U.S. President Donald Trump during Tuesday's White House coronavirus briefing.
That will be in November. Maybe you will be gone too.
The LindseyGrahamSC calling the pot black. We the people want a change in leadership... specifically, we want leadership that isn’t only concerned with their cronies.
Stupid to change leadership in the middle of a pandemic.
Yes let’s follow your leader and alienate WHO for our failed response. Good God man!
LindseyGrahamSC can we cut your funding?
Lyndsay believes WHO stands for White House orangutan... so I agree with him on a change in leadership.
I can’t deal with this utter stupidity anymore.
Cover up anyone Seems to be this hacks job these days,, im sure his dad is proud as hell his son is a lap dog
Deflect, redirect and blame. I've never seen such an irresponsible 'We are victims' attitude in major gov. such as this.
The best change that could ever be would be a change that makes no longer a senator from my home state of SC......
November 2020, a change is gonna come LindseyGrahamSC . Start packing your bags you evil doer.
Who and what is a Linsey gram any way. Crawl back in the hole you came out of.
Good move. Save our tax. Why did WHO lie to the whole world if they ain't in bed with the Chinese?
Do not give them a penny. Teach them what happens if they only work for China.
There will be a change in leadership in November....
Change in 'Leadership' definitely - GetRidOfTrump that there is a beginning.
Poor Lindsey. It's not easy being a closeted, homosexual US Senator from a Southern state....especially when someone has pictures.
🙄
The WHO is an absolute boondoggle now and has been. Like the UN it is bloated corrupt and incompetent
This is typical of Trump’s administration, always blaming other people to cover up their short comings. If only his administration had reacted earlier other than ignoring advice from his experts, COVID19 wouldn’t be having such a devastating impact on the US.
Maybe the WHO should ignore the US until LindseyGrahamSC comes out of the closet.
HindsightIs2020DumpTheGOP
Agree must be a change in the leadership, apply to himself
What has the head of the WHO done to deserve the treatment of Trump and Graham,have WHO declined to agree with the Presidents lies on the virus
