Pompeo expects 'completely whitewashed' WHO China investigation

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Wednesday he expected a World Health Organization (WHO) investigation into the origins of the novel coronavirus in China to be "completely whitewashed."

Nearly 580,000 people globally have died from COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, and more than 13 million have been infected following an outbreak that started in Wuhan, China, last year.

The Geneva-based WHO said it was sending an team to China in early July to investigate how the outbreak started.

"This is a regime that failed to disclose the information they had about a virus that has now killed over 100,000 Americans … and now it is allowing the World Health Organization to go in to conduct what I am confident will be a completely, completely whitewashed investigation," Pompeo told reporters.

Probably not as much the the domestic COVID-19 data may be now that Trump no longer wants the CDC to handle it.

Zhirinovsky who is considered Russia's version of Trump and who Trump met in 2001 accuses America of releasing the coronavirus from China. Last week another Duma member accused us of manipulating their weather.
Back to Soviet days with their idiotic propaganda

WHO will NOT say that "this is all China's fault and they built it in a lab and infected the US on purpose", and drumpf/pompeo will grandstand about how China is to blame and no one can save your life from the EVIL Chinese but the racist in chief.

same strategy they always use........... create a boogeyman and make sure your stupid base knows only YOU can stop the boogeyman. BENGHAZI!!!!!!!!!!! TRANSGENDER BATHROOM!!!!!!!! CHINAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!
