- How Jared decided to nix national testing because Dem states were the ones hit hardest at first by CV-19. By Katherine Eban, https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2020/07/how-jared-kushners-secret-testing-plan-went-poof-into-thin-air

- Demands for Kushner to Resign Over 'Staggering' Level of 'Depravity' That Put Politics Before Public Health. "Holy hell. Jared Kushner reportedly abandoned a national testing plan because it was *politically advantageous* to sit back and let blue states be eviscerated by the virus."

I get that politics are a way of life, especially when it comes to government. They don't go away when Trump does.

But Jimminy Cricket, is this awful for the U.S. as a whole and weakens us as a nation. Florida gets handed the keys to the kingdom with a hurricane, but California is on its own when an earthquake hits. We saw this with the fires.

You know Jared is a grade-A wannabe whore. He soooooooo badly wants to be the next "disruptor" and is begging to get into the bro tech club.

Kushner looks like a gawky frat boy (from one of the "nerdy" frats). In reality, he's purely evil behind the scenes. A creature completely after Trump's so-called heart; his "real" son. Don Jr and Eric try their best, but just don't have what it takes. Just check out Jared's family background, if you aren't aware of it.

... 18 tons of PPE to China (allegedly because Trump owes them > $ 200 million) and that
killed and sickened a lot of people including Drs., nurses, techs, EMTs, other patients, family
members, friends, and neighbors. Remember the pictures of nurses working in garbage bags,
Drs. with home made masks, and EMTs wearing scuba equipment?

And a few months later he has had FEMA and Homeland Security take (aka steal) PPE from
states, local governments and hospitals because according to him "it is ours."

The man is without a shred of decency.
