Opinion: Trump halts funding to the WHO, because the Emperor is naked…

It is about time now. This is enough, the world is suffering with a pandemic. The United States and the Trump Administration is halting funds to the World Health Organization (WHO). The Washington D.C. Consensus of our day is internal squabble and create enemies.

The US has done enough bad decisions abroad, across shores and caused havoc. If that being the Iran agreement, the trade-war with China. The causes of stir with NATO and so-on. There has been nothing positive. His done nothing to prevent the North Koreans from shooting missiles towards Japan. There is no stopping of trouble within Iraq, who the lawmakers want to banish them. While the hawks in DC wants to start a war against Teheran.

So, its not like the US or Trump Administration is doing anyone a favour. Neither is the Coup d’etat sponsored in Bolivia. The trying to forge a right-wing change of guards in Caracas in Venezuela. It is not like they are playing softballs, they are doing it right in-front of our eyes. The only thing missing is CIA troops on the streets with trained militias in the US And then send them to the streets.

With this in mind. The way the destructive behaviour from the White House abroad. This is a continuation of it. The way it has targeted WHO and its director in the midst of the COVID-19 and the Coronavirus outbreak. A virus who has shed a dim light on the lacking profound leadership in Washington. Where it has shown the erratic behaviour is serving no gain. Therefore, it is easier to pin-point outsiders, than looking into own mediocrity. Which is bountiful and the warnings of it was all there, but the President and his team didn’t worry. Not until the house started burning. Than, they wondered why there was firemen coming.

President Trump might think his brilliant making WHO an enemy and a target. However, it is only undressing his mismanage. The king is without clothes. The emperor is naked. In front of his court, his a jester and joke. His insincere and he knows it. However, he thinks this is his trick. The trick that might save him at home, but abroad we know the deal.

He is halting funding for the organization who is funding and coordinating the research into the vaccine against the virus. The virus that has hurt the US the most, because of mismanagement. The man who has talked ill of the Untied Nations. Who has worked against global efforts and thwarted deals. Just like he just recently breached the International Space Agreement. Just so he can in his own mind start to mine the MOON. That is the sort of fella we are operating with.

President Trump is hearing of the carnage. The reasons for this act. Not that its good, not that its grandeur. It is the epic failure and trying to forge another narrative. While his own citizens is dying because he didn’t do his job. He didn’t mitigate or care early. Instead, he pumped hope into Wall Street and trying to save the Goodfella’s at Corporate America. Because, the citizens doesn’t matter as much as the big-men of the corporate-citizens. They matter more and more.

The WHO is just functioning the way it is because of the powers all its stakeholders gives it. The matter of how the world will want to support it and be behind it. Especially in the time of need like now. They are the ones coordinating and working with scientists world-wide. They are in-charge of studies and securing the studies are followed-up upon. Which in the end will save us all and give us a way-out.

That is how POOR Trump is. His the impoverished mind, the broke fellow of a spirit. Who has so little consideration, that unless he gets a few tokens and praise, he will buckle and cry like a baby. That is who he is and the world see it. There is no escape in a crisis and Trump is showing signs of fatigue. Weakness and above all, no strategy, no co-ordination and no punt to secure a better tomorrow. Only self-destruction and trying to bring the world on his team. What a fool, what a weak man. He might have powers in his office, in his role in DC, but he doesn’t have a character who can carry it. It is not in him and there was anything in him to change that either.

The emperor is naked. Time to release the dragons and let’s us enjoy the show. Peace.

A Quarantine Memo (13.04.2020)

It was bound to happen, at one point I had to write a piece like this. Just to clear my mind, as the reflections of my windows get boring. The COVID-19 Special Reports, the deaths, the recovered, the contagious disease continues to spread and I’m self-quarantined by the authorities and my employers. Well, that is all good for now, but it makes a brother reflect on life. As I have been in this state for 30 days or about a month.

I know we have seen pictures of P.Diddy, Puff Daddy or Diddy where he turns a lot older than he usually does. I am sure many more looks older now. Because, they don’t have the team around them to give them make-up and fresh new clothes straight from the factory.

However, for the most of us. The days goes in checking emails, the twitter feed and Facebook feed. Listening to the news, talking to the close family and friends. Keeping in touch and letting the day go by. While the numbers are rising. More death, more horror and a worry of a second wave. While states, nations and whatnot plans to open up. We are looking wonder, who will be caught in the second wave, as the old people’s home is so hardly hit in the first wave and God knows who will be next in line. As doctors, nurses and front-line workers are catching it or even in quarantine themselves.

This is not easy times. The mind rumbles. The questions remains, as we don’t have vaccine, nor any sufficient medicine to cure this disease. We can think that the spoils of the American President and other gutsy people has the tricks. But then again, we would fool ourselves or let us be fooled by another fool.

Just like the people hooked on the 5G thingy, that is the same peddlers who are selling vitamin-cures to heal your skull, your dildos and whatnot. The same folks who sold Pizzagate and went mayhem on Clinton’s emails. However, the same folks will not cry loud for the thousands of dead because of the lack of preparation and concern about the virus itself. That is just so rich.

The headlines, the drama and the diplomatic squabble are bound to happen. The lack of funds, the stolen allocated funds, the ghost foundations and everything is bound to happen. The ghost workers and the grand corruption, as there was no transparency with COVID-19 Funds. There was no clear oversight nor care to look over the transfers of funds. Only spending because there was a dire need, not even look into tenders or reasons for procurement of needed goods too.

It is all just clear magic, the magicians in office using the space to enrich themselves on a tragedy. The death, the failure of state and the lack of protocol. The staring darkness of it all. While we are told to be hopeful. Be giddy and be cautious. Wash our hands, social distance and listen to guidance. However, we should still be woke.

These people who has power, needs to be regulated and questioned. They shouldn’t automatically get a pass, because of a pandemic. Yes, there is need for new measures and security of life. That is understood. However, that doesn’t mean they have a “free for all” or can “burn bridges” to secure wealth for post-COVID. We all see that.

This is a quarantine memo. It doesn’t have any answers, but just thoughts. Which you can either take as good or dismiss. However, be woke, ask questions and ask yourself if you see it as right. But remember, common sense needs to be common. Peace.
