The NYT now has 6 million subscribers. This support means more to us than ever, as the pandemic kills what's left of advertising revenue. You're the reason we can keep doing our jobs when so many Americans are suffering and out of work. Thank you. https://t.co/AvMPkw841Q — PolitiTweet.org

The process was so chaotic that admin officials couldn't say for sure if the volunteers' efforts had yielded a single contract. At least one volunteer told us not a single contract had been cleared by the time they left D.C in April. — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
Current and former FEMA officials we spoke with believe the effort could have been better handled by logistics experts within the government -- had they been mobilized earlier, when POTUS was dragging his feet. Trump admin officials told us that was wishful thinking. But... — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
Friends of POTUS had an easier time. A supposed lead on medical gear from Tana Goertz, the former Apprentice contestant who now chairs "Women for Trump," was expedited, and flagged for review by multiple senior government officials. She did not respond to my e-mails. — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
Meanwhile, @jodikantor spoke to a doctor and medical supplier who had a line on millions of N95 masks from China. He sold some to institutions in Michigan. He spent a month trying to get the FEMA volunteers to send his proposal on for vetting. BUT! https://t.co/pf65EKx7As — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
This time, Hazzouri pressed a FEMA official to buy Covid tests from his associates. When the official directed him to the agency's contracting portal, he dropped Trump's name. https://t.co/pf65EKx7As — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
Maybe the time, as @iarnsdorf reported, Hazzouri wrote Trump a letter -- addressing him as "King" -- with some ideas on how to fix the Veterans Administration. https://t.co/YM5GYelwlv — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
And then there was Albert Hazzouri, a Pennsylvania dentist and visitor of Mar-a-Lago, the president’s private Florida club. You may remember Hazzouri from the times he dropped @realDonaldTrump's name to get a dental permit in Florida https://t.co/6ItC2VgjLF OR... — PolitiTweet.org

Documents obtained by @nytimes show @HHSGov officials forwarded Oren-Pines' offer to New York State, who appear to have thought he had already been vetted. They gave him a $69 million contract -- and are now trying to get their money back. Read more at: https://t.co/OFmu86yFCx — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
That would be a promise of quick ventilator delivery by an untried Silicon Valley engineer, Yaron Oren-Pines. As @BuzzFeedNews, Yaron Oren-Pines tweeted his offer at @realDonaldTrump. By then, the volunteers had already urged him to fill out a procurement form. — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
Our reporting -- by @AndrewJacobsNYT @jodikantor @KannoYoungs & @luisferre -- found a wide range of issues. Admin officials could not say for certain whether the volunteers had ultimately discovered useful leads on supplies. One disastrous lead was sent on to @NYGovCuomo--> — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
One wrote a whistleblower memo, first reported by WaPo's @yabutaleb7 & @AshleyRParker today, detailing the experience. A volunteer told us: “The nature and scale of the response seemed grossly inadequate. It was bureaucratic cycles of chaos.” — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
The reality: The volunteers -- earnest, working long days and nights -- found themselves totally unprepared for the job, and buffeted by incoming leads from Friends of Trump -- which they were told to prioritize, and tracked on a spreadsheet called "VIP Update." — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
In late March, Trump officials planted a volunteer team at FEMA to begin vetting more than a thousand PPE leads coming admin officials, lawmakers, random people and Trump hangers-on. The hope: Their deal-sourcing experience could apply to emergency medical procurement. — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
EXCLUSIVE w/@luisferre: A bogus lead on ventilators that almost cost New York State $69 million came from Trump administration officials. Who got it from the squad of twentysomething Wall Street volunteers placed at FEMA by Jared Kushner's team. https://t.co/pf65EKx7As — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
NEW: A pushy Pennsylvania dentist. A former Apprentice star. A bogus deal for New York ventilators. And a dozen young, overwhelmed volunteers from Wall Street. Inside a chaotic -- and possibly fruitless --- Trumpworld quest for medical supplies. https://t.co/pf65EKx7As — PolitiTweet.org
