Volunteer for Kushner's coronavirus response effort filed complaint - report
A volunteer for Jared Kushner’s coronavirus response effort was so worried about the mismanagement of the team that the person reportedly filed a complaint with the House oversight committee.
The coronavirus response being spearheaded by President Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, has relied in part on volunteers from consulting and private equity firms with little expertise in the tasks to which they were assigned, exacerbating chronic problems in obtaining supplies for hospitals and other needs, according to numerous government officials and a volunteer involved in the effort.
About two dozen employees from Boston Consulting Group, Insight, McKinsey and other firms have volunteered their time — some on paid vacation leave from their jobs and others without pay — to aid the Trump administration’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, according to administration officials and others familiar with the arrangement.
Although some of the volunteers have relevant backgrounds and experience, many others were poorly matched with the jobs they were assigned, including those given the task of securing personal protective equipment, or PPE, for hospitals nationwide, according to a complaint filed last month with the House Oversight Committee.
The complaint, obtained by The Washington Post, was submitted by a volunteer who has since left the group and who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retribution from the administration. Key elements of the complaint were confirmed by six administration officials and one outside adviser to the effort ...
The document alleges that the team responsible for PPE had little success in helping the government secure such equipment, in part because none of the team’s members had significant experience in health care, procurement or supply-chain operations. In addition, none of the volunteers had existing relationships with manufacturers or a clear understanding of customs requirements or Food and Drug Administration rules, according to the complaint and two senior administration officials.

Jeez dude you need a hug. You are projecting your own world view on others.
In reality there are plenty of people in both powerful and lowly positions who are just plain decent and trying to do good by their community, beliefs, God, family etc.
If all you have is conspiracies then everybody looks like Alex Jones.

To the Impeached Orange Fuhrer its about the numbers, his re-election numbers.
Cuomo says New York reopening won't be 'trade-off' as Trump urges Americans back to work
New York governor Andrew Cuomo asked, “How much is a human life worth?” at his daily press conference, implicitly criticizing states which have rushed to reopen their economies in recent weeks.
"The fundamental question, which we're not articulating, is how much is a human life worth … I say a human life is priceless. Period." https://t.co/Uaj2znDuPT pic.twitter.com/OaH4PSP3X6
“The faster we reopen the lower the economic costs, but the higher the human costs because the more lives lost. That, my friends, is the decision we are really making,” said Cuomo.
“To me ... a human life is priceless,” Cuomo later added. “Our reopening plan doesn’t have a trade-off.” New York’s reopening plan, he said, would have a “circuit breaker” to reimpose restrictions if the coronavirus begins to rapidly spread and send people into hospitals.
He also called on federal leaders to provide aid to states. Economic restrictions have blown state budgets wide open. The virus left New York with a $13bn deficit.
“The debate now is – the blue states have the coronavirus… the Republicans are saying we don’t want to give money to the blue states,” said Cuomo. The virus, he said, doesn’t kill Democrats or Republicans, “It kills Americans.”
He added, “If we can’t get past this now, when can we ever get past it?”

Ousted vaccine expert files whistleblower complaint
Dr Rick Bright, the former director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority who says he was demoted for refusing to promote hydroxychloroquine, has officially filed his whistleblower complaint with the office of special counsel.
Bright also said the Trump administration rejected his warnings on COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus. Bright said he ‘acted with urgency’ to address the growing spread of COVID-19 after the World Health Organization issued a warning in January.
He said he ‘encountered resistance from HHS leadership, including Health and Human Services Secretary (Alex) Azar, who appeared intent on downplaying this catastrophic event.’
Bright alleges in the complaint that political appointees at the Department of Health and Human Services had tried to promote hydroxychloroquine ‘as a panacea.’ The officials also ‘demanded that New York and New Jersey be ‘flooded’ with these drugs, which were imported from factories in Pakistan and India that had not been inspected by the FDA,’ the complaint says.
But Bright opposed broad use of the drug, arguing the scientific evidence wasn’t there to back up its use in coronavirus patients. He felt an urgent need to tell the public that there wasn’t enough scientific evidence to support using the drugs for COVID-19 patients, the complaint states.
In a statement issued late last month, Bright said, “While I am prepared to look at all options and to think ‘outside the box’ for effective treatments, I rightly resisted efforts to provide an unproven drug on demand to the American public.”
Lawyers for Bright announced about two weeks ago that he intended to file a whistleblower complaint after being moved from his influential role helping to oversee the production of a coronavirus vaccine to a much smaller role.

Trump Fires Inspector General Ahead of Damning Whistleblower Complaint About Bogus Coronavirus Cures
After hyping hydroxychloroquine, the president has now turned his unscientific enthusiasm toward Gilead Sciences’ remdesivir.theintercept.com
TRUMP FIRES INSPECTOR GENERAL AHEAD OF DAMNING WHISTLEBLOWER COMPLAINT ABOUT BOGUS CORONAVIRUS CURES
ON FRIDAY, WHILE Rick Bright was in the process of filing what promises to be a damning whistleblower complaint to the Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services, President Donald Trump announced that he was firing the inspector general, Christi Grimm, and nominating a handpicked replacement.
Two weeks ago, Bright, who, as deputy assistant secretary for preparedness and response for HHS, oversaw the government’s purchase and funding of vaccines, treatments, and tests for the coronavirus, said he had been forced out of his job because he refused to cave to pressure to adopt scientifically unproven treatments for Covid-19.
Odd how the folks who were so concerned about Hunter Biden have no concerns about Trump mass-firing independent IGs for doing their jobs and following the law. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

lol, no wonder it's going so well. The White House got the guy who has made a career of being wrong about economic forecasts to do COVID-19 forecasts... which were also badly wrong.
nymag.com
Trump Got Dow 36,000 Author to Forecast the Coronavirus. It Didn’t Go Well.
Why did Trump keep citing impossibly low death totals? Kevin Hassett, who is neither a public-health expert nor a good economist, made a model.
