While we were watching Trump-Who Makes Life-Or-Death Supply Decisions For Your State? Jared Kushner?
Congress doesn't know who makes the final life or death decision about which states get critical pandemic supplies. But Jared Kushner and his hedge fund cronies are working on it in the White House with ZERO oversight.Letter from Energy & Commerce Committee Oversight and Investigations subcommittee to HHS head Alex Azar and FEMA head Peter Gaynor on April 20th. They need to deliver this info to Congress by April 27th, to the public by May 4th.
I read a letter yesterday that made my face go numb. Congress doesn't know where critical pandemic supplies are going, what the criteria are for sending them, what gets sent to which states and who makes the final life or death decision about the supplies.
