White House senior advisor/son-in-law Jared Kushner, who led a task force to fight COVID-19 in the early days of the pandemic, abandoned efforts to create a nationwide testing scheme after it was decided that it would be politically advantageous to let Democratic-controlled states suffer outbreaks, Vanity Fair reported Thursday.

Vanity Fair reported in May that several volunteers from the financial sector had signed up to help him, only to be disillusioned by their work environment and what they saw as Kushner’s inexperience and incompetence, with one going so far as to file a whistleblower report with the House Oversight Committee.
