🔥OPERATION WARP SPEED 🔥
by Jared Kushner
From his book:
Breaking History-
A White House Memoir (2022)
"If the federal government offered to underwrite the production costs, however, the companies could begin manufacturing vaccines as they entered clinical trials..."
2) "The cost of failure was high: if a vaccine didn't work or the FDA rejected it for safety reasons, the federal government would be stuck with warehouses full of useless doses and a big bill...
I was willing to accept the risk."
3) "You have to start mass-producing vaccines while you are still doing phase three safety trials," he said. "You may lose money on a few, but if one hits, it will go down as the best investment ever made..."
"I (Jared) loved the idea."
4) "This approach will make some enemies. I need your permission to "To do this right, take liberties to do whatever is necessary to get it done."
"Do it," said Trump. "Anything that gets in your way, come back to me. But do what you need to do so that nothing slows you down."
5) Jared Kushner and others who initiated the Speed Team of Operation Warp Speed received Presidential Commendations for their "exceptional efforts" in fast tracking a new type of vaccine (mRna) without trials.
6) Kushner's Proget Airbridge (for PPE & Equipment) was highly scrutinized and there was even an audit of the program in 2023 - 'FEMA Did Not Provide Sufficient Oversight of Project Airbridge'
7) During Trump's first term, Kushner served officially as the Senior Advisor to the President, as well as became the first Director of the Office of American Innovation, which was a role established by Trump .
8) "In Jan 2021, the same month Trump left the WH, Kushner set up Affinity Partners.. Altogether he’s raised $4.6 billion, including $1.5 billion last year from two of his earlier backers, the Qatari sovereign wealth fund and Abu Dhabi-based Lunate..."

9) Jared Kushner has become a BILLIONAIRE since Operation Warp Speed.
Kushner and Trump took a gamble on fast tracking a vaccine and selling it to the public without the proper trials. Many LIVES have been lost and maimed bc of the vaccines.
They have moved on, but I can't.
