And y'all wonder why I'm clamoring for oversight.

For people bad at math that's worth 2.2 Kennedy Centers that you bitched about.

$55 million to a company that went bankrupt last year, has no employees and has provided 0 masks.

"The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is paying Panthera $5.50 per mask, which is decidedly more than what the government pays companies with an established background in producing medical supplies such as 3M (the company charges about 63 cents per mask)."

I mean this is simply amazing how ridiculous this is.
There is probably somebody peddling influence there, but at least as of a few weeks ago, $5 was roughly the going price of n95 masks, if you could find them at all, which most people I talked to couldn't.
