Remember all the times Democrats and people in media insisted that Trump was going to use the power of the White House to enrich his family and friends?
Well it turns out this may have been another case of liberal projection.
The husband of CDC director Rochelle Walensky has reportedly received millions in HHS grants.
If this is true, doesn’t it look particularly bad during a pandemic?
RedState reports:
EXCLUSIVE: CDC Director Walensky’s Husband Received $5 Million in HHS Grants – and That’s Just the Start of It
New information provided exclusively to RedState by syndicated radio talk show host Howie Carr shows that Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky is finding multiple ways to benefit from her new position. Walensky, who took over as director with Biden’s inauguration, is married to Loren D. Walensky, a renowned pediatric oncology researcher at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at Harvard.
In October 2019 Loren Walensky became the scientific co-founder and a member of the Board of Directors of Lytica Therapeutics, “an early-stage biotechnology company working on an innovative platform for developing next-generation antimicrobials.” (LabCentral)
Just four months later, Walensky’s Lytica received a $16.9 million dollar HHS grant to “develop antibacterial peptides with broad activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria.” Only $5.3 million of that money was initially disbursed to Lytica, and the remaining $11.6 million is scheduled to be disbursed upon the achievement of “certain development milestones.”…
In this particular case Crunchbase, which monitors funding for corporations and non-profits, shows that the only funding that Lytica has received to date is the $5.3 million allocated from the grant received.
Again, the only funding this new company has received to date – nearly two years after its founding – is the $5.3 million allocated from the HHS grant.
The liberal media doesn’t seem very interested in this story. That’s odd, isn’t it?
I'm sure Cuomo News Network (CNN )and BSNBC and Washington Compost, NY Slimes, and others will be all over this! (NOT!) EXCLUSIVE: CDC Director Walensky's Husband Received $5 Million in HHS Grants – and That's Just the Start of It https://t.co/bVSz3b95Kc

If CNN ever does mention this story, it will be an attempt to discredit it. Just watch.
