1. Donald Trump, his key backer Peter Thiel, and Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House Covid coordinator are directly linked to nationwide under-reporting of Covid-19 cases and deaths. We learned this morning the data was flawed.
2. The under-reporting of COVID-19 cases and deaths follow a decision by Dr. Deborah Birx to privatize COVID-19 data collection from the CDC to a Pittsburgh company that uses a platform built by Peter Thiel's Palantir. Thiel is close to Trump.
3. Birx decided to jettison the existing CDC reporting system for COVID-19 which had been developed over 15 years, and replaced it with a platform operated by a Pittsburgh-based private company, TeleTracking.

1. Oleg Deripaska who was explicitly tied to Russia's meddling in the US election in 2016 via his associate Russian intelligence officer Konstantin Klimnik and Paul Manafort. Deripaska is close to Putin and has been flagged thousands of times to FinCen for suspicious activity.
2. Deripaska millions likely belong to the Russian people but by using shell companies, US banks have been helping him move the money into the West where it contributes to a rising tide of organized criminality. It's unclear if his money was used finance the 2016 operation.
3. The GOP lifted sanctions against Deripaska. Soon after its was revealed the oligarch was building an aluminum plant in Mitch McConnell's Kentucky. washingtonpost.com/politics/how-a…
