Republicans aren’t screwing around anymore – they want to make the head of the WHO testify about what exactly their role was in helping the Chinese communists cover up the coronavirus pandemic.
🚨 Just sent a letter to WHO Director Tedros calling on him to testify before Congress.
Americans deserve to know why an organization we helped fund:
– Lied to Congress about China's cover up
– Peddled Chinese propaganda
– Hid the truth to shield China from accountability pic.twitter.com/Ws61skqKIg— Steve Scalise (@SteveScalise) July 8, 2020
"Until you appear under oath, America and the world will not know the origins of this crisis."@SteveScalise, @RepJamesComer, @Jim_Jordan, @RepBlaine, @RepWalorski and @RepMarkGreen demand answers on false China info WHO gave to Congress.

I don’t think he’ll do it. I don’t know what jurisdiction they would have to force Tedros to testify. I would think he might do it if he wanted to keep the WHO in good standing with the U.S. and keep getting our delicious tax money. BUT, Trump has already exited from the WHO, so that leverage is gone…
