"While it’s unclear whether Kushner himself played a role in the acquisition, improper procurement of supplies “is a serious deal,” said a former White House staffer. “That is appropriations 101. That would be not good.”" Government acquisition is an enormously complicated process, and that statement is completely true. "Not good" is an understatement; this kind of thing can get government employees fired and cost contractors millions of dollars. "But the million tests, some of which were distributed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to several states, were of no help. According to documents obtained by Vanity Fair, they were examined in two separate government laboratories and found to be “contaminated and unusable.”" And that would be why. Procurement fraud is an enormous problem that gets people killed. (The corruption of the system even with current procurement controls is bad enough, but do remember the Civil War vendors selling rotten meat to the Army.) As for the rest of the allegations in the article, if any of it is true then this is likely to be the worst scandal in the history of the United States.
