Good! I like the idea of a NATO health organization. Sad, the World Health Organization used to be seen as effective. Now they are just a propaganda wing for the Chinese govt.

I completely agree.

Taxpayers shouldn’t be subsidizing rock bands...

Linda more used to hitting people with his purse, not in the purse.

It would certainly be a pleasant and shocking surprise if Lindsey did much of anything.

Another threat from Lindsey?

I wouldn’t be worried if I were the WHO.

DEFUND all collectives foreign and domestic for 5 years INCLUDING CONgre$$. Find some self-funding patriots who will replace these PARASITES. There’s got to be 535 out of 330 million Americans. We can see where we are at after that. WE CANNOT AFFORD IT.

Lindsay Graham threatens a lot of things so he can get a headline and look like a tough guy. When it comes to actually DOING any of those things, forget it. Not gonna happen.

"...cut funding to the World Health Organization (WHO) in Congress’ next stimulus package unless the organization changes its leadership."

He was half right. This is what he should be doing.

> unless the organization changes its leadership <

That’s they key phrase right there. If the WHO replaces the current corrupt bum with a new corrupt bum, I guess U.S. taxpayer dollars would start flowing again.

How about this? Cut off all funding, period.

Lindsay threatens ... again. Mr. All Hat and No Cattle looks like an old cartoon character where the hat is so big that it completely covers the cartoon character.

True that. Graham will discover quickly that Townsend doesn’t need U.S. taxpayers’ money. Now, as for the Whirled Hell Organization ...

Miss Lindsey is a big-hat-no-cattle blabbermouth. Nobody believes him any more.
