According to a Vanity Fair report, White House senior adviser, Jared Kushner, was working on a secret national testing plan in the spring to help bring the spread of Covid-19 under control.

The fact a plan existed is amazing.

That they killed it is while not surprising is quite insane and very damaging for Trump imo.

But if it was killed for the reasons stated in the report, then THIS should END TRUMP.

Pay attention to the White House Spokesperson's response. She never once said there was NOT a plan. What a political gold mine this is imo.

What about that giant pile of paper Scalise brought to the hearing of Medical Team for show and tell? He said straight out in his opening comment, “This is the Covid Plan”. Was it just more blank papers like Trumps tax paper stack show and tell? That bullet to the ass most have erased his memory of the constitution, and Jesus rules about lying.
