USA Today reports Trump has Officially Begun to Withdraw the US From the World Health Organization as Pandemic Spikes:
The Trump administration has officially begun to withdraw the United States from the World Health Organization, even as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to grip the globe and infections spike in many states across the U.S.
Congress received formal notification of the decision on Tuesday, more than a month after President Donald Trump announced his intention to end the U.S. relationship with the WHO and blasted the multilateral institution as a tool of China. The White House said the withdrawal would take effect on July 6, 2021.
[...] The formal withdrawal comes as the United States nears 3 million reported coronavirus cases and more than 130,000 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University data. Globally, there have been 11.6 million cases and almost 540,000 deaths.

Some corrupt organization gets the axe, Trump did it, therefore opposition to corruption is bad.

Lies and slander. Any brain-eating amoebae that crawled their way into VLM's skull would starve to death in short order :)

The amoeba is the brain! In VLM II: Amoeba Boogaloo, you control VLM, a "modern" nazi-zombie. Fight yourself out of the barren white boonies, where there are no untermensch brains with which to sate your crazed cranial hunger, and roam the streets filled with thugs and looters! Join the riot squad and feast on race traitors!
