Drastic cuts forced on the World Health Organization (W.H.O.) by President Donald Trump withdrawing U.S. taxpayer dollars from the globalist behemoth are hitting hard, the organization’s chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus lamented. Ghebreyesus told the agency’s annual executive board meeting in Geneva, Switzerland, that 2025 was “undeniably one of the most difficult years in our organisation’s history”, with many donors tightening their belts, AFP reports. [snip] Trump confirmed the U.S. was exiting the agency on the first day of his return to office in January, 2025, having criticised the organisation for being too “China-centric” during the coronavirus pandemic.

Probably forced lay off staff to avoid to cuts on their skiing vacations in Switzerland, and trips to Tahiti for 'medical fact finding' in winter. How sad. /s off

The key to victory over totalitarian socialism is to shut off the money. Every level, every agency, every program, every institution, every NGO, every non-profit. Not one dime goes to any outside entity, and then shut off the money that feeds the Deep State.

Hopefully they'll have to shutter that decrepit old U.N. complex in NYC thereby allowing real estate developers, like Eric Trump to swoop in, buy up the property, and build something both beautiful and useful in its place.

Remember how Margaret Thatcher said Socialism is great until you run out of other people's money? Well the WHO and soon the UN are finding out. The same thing will also soon be happening to some countries who suddenly say we don't need the USA, turning to China (Canada), or the EU who suddenly thinks they can protect themselves from Russia. Everyone has taken the US for granted for way too long.

My late best friend , Hubert, an English professor, went to Saudi Arabia for a year back in the 1980s, to teach English to Saudi Arabian medical students. He was shocked to discover that attaining an M.D. degree there had littyle to do with learning Medicine- that the degree was a status symbol (like Jill Bidens fake doctorate) He said most of his students sent their servants to take notes and tests. The head of the WHO, an MD, has never practced medicine, as far as I know.

It should bite hard, right on the posterior. We have been catering to these Europeans and third-worlders for decades, only to have them hate, insult and demand more money from us. I have never been more proud of Donald Trump than when he gave his most recent speech in Switzerland. It sent a clear message to the entire world, We are the big dog, don't mess with us.

The attacks at Bondi Beach, Australia and at Brown University remind us western democracies remain uniquely vulnerable to terrorist attacks, even terrorists armed with common firearms rather than the automatic weapons employed in the Middle East and other hot spots. In Australia at least 16, aged 10-87, were killed and some 40 were wounded at a “Chanukah by the Sea” celebration.

In the aftermath of the massive Feeding Our Future scandal and broader allegations of systemic fraud in Minnesota’s social programs, a troubling theme has emerged: accusations of racism repeatedly used to deflect scrutiny, intimidate investigators and stall accountability. Rumors and reports of fraud in Minneapolis, primarily within the city’s exploding Somali community, have been circulating for at least a decade, but criticism of the fraud has been largely dismissed by elected Democrats as "racist" or being underpinned by animosity toward foreigners. News stories focused on Somali fraudsters in recent years were shot down as "racist."

American actions involving Venezuela have stirred up a flurry of theories and narratives around the United States’ strategic intentions. Some theories highlight apparent contradictions between rhetoric and policy, such as President Trump’s pardons of major drug-traffickers despite his public anti-drug stance. Others frame potential U.S. military threats against Venezuela as being driven primarily by America’s dependence on oil. Additional narratives have revived allegations of Venezuelan interference in U.S. elections, including claims from a former Maduro regime official about a “narco-terrorist war” against the United States.
