52 million for 3.5 million tests that don't work with a client name simply noted as the “WH.” Kushner is a procurement officer?

With an investigation and subsequent charges, Ivanka's cuck should be hung up by his shriveled ball. January can't get here soon enough.

They said this would be a good political move.

These schmucks all have blood on their hands.

As I posted below the refrigeration mistake is Procurement 101. Brutally tragic and remarkably stupid. You don’t have to be a procurement professional to know that if it’s in or not in the contract THAT is what will be done. That’s just the technical procurement rules.

If he made a decision (again he has zero authority) to willfully deny services based on political positioning - whew boy.

This is a really incredible piece of reporting.

People were dying. He had the resources to do something about it. He chose to do nothing.

This entire family is the scum of the earth.

I want nothing more than to see them suffer the way they have caused other people to suffer. I hate them all more than I can possibly say.

First, the procurement system and professionals worked as designed.
Second, nothing else did.

The scope of work should have required refrigeration. That’s a huge error that doomed the whole process of receiving testing material.

Jared is consistent. He sucks. For some reason he seems to think he more than a potted plant.

I was not aware of the extent of the Rockefeller involvement. I’ve heard almost nothing about them in this whole thing. I had heard of Penn being involved (nice tease at the beginning of the article) due to an appearance he made on Fallon where it was mentioned.

They made a political decision with people's lives? I’d read early on that it was Jared who advised Trump that it was nothing and to treat it like bad PR. Trump realized it was blowing up in his face and was furious with Jared.

This is some really good reporting I hope Katherine Eban is recognized for it.
