[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“After weeks of discussions about his future, Zachary D. Fuentes, the 36-year-old deputy White House chief of staff, had a plan.

Mr. Fuentes told colleagues that after his mentor, John F. Kelly, left his job as chief of staff at the end of the year, he would “hide out” at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, adjacent to the White House, for six months, remaining on the payroll in a nebulous role. Then, in July, when he had completed 15 years of service in the Coast Guard, Mr. Fuentes — an active-duty officer — would take advantage of an early retirement program.”

He apparently advocated for this early retirement program

Excerpt from above
"Several White House staffers told The New York Times that Fuentes discussed the retirement program with officials at the Department of Homeland Security, which then began pressing Congress in November to reinstate it after it ended at the end of fiscal year 2018.

A provision to reinstate it was pulled Wednesday from a House bill after questions from reporters."
Thank god for our free press[/quote]

This Fuentes grifter just won a $3M federal contract to provide PPE to hospitals only the Navajo nation. He has zero experience manufacturing or sourcing masks and created his company 11 days before winning the contract. And the masks he provided, of course, are unsuitable for medical use.
