Kushner-backed program chartering flights to address hospital shortages raises questions in Congress

Grifters on the taxpayers tab.

Kushner-backed program chartering flights to address hospital shortages raises questions in Congress

Source: ABC News

A flight from China chartered by the U.S. government touched down at Chicago O’Hare International Airport on Wednesday last week. Inside were nearly 6 million surgical masks and some respiratory equipment. 

But the supplies on board weren’t tucked into the national stockpile or distributed by the federal government among cities hardest hit by novel coronavirus despite the average taxpayer bill of $750,000 to $800,000 per flight. 

Instead, the masks and other life-saving equipment were owned by Medline, one of the nation’s largest privately held manufacturers and distributors of medical supplies. They were loaded onto cargo trucks and driven to the company’s warehouse in suburban Chicago. 

It was up to Medline to decide who gets the protective gear and what price they would pay. 

The sole federal requirement imposed on Medline was that it would promise to sell half its cargo to designated "hot spots" facing outbreaks of the coronavirus. Medline says it is currently selling protective gear at a loss and isn't charging extra for the expedited processing.

imposed on Medline was that it would promise to sell half its cargo to designated "hot spots" facing outbreaks of the coronavirus. Medline says it is currently selling protective gear at a loss and isn't charging extra for the expedited processing.
