California Gov. Gavin Newsom was caught wiring half a billion dollars to communist China as part of a “massive face mask money laundering scheme. Information is emerging that indicates Georgia Gov. Kemp may be involved in exactly the same scheme. These state officials send huge amounts of money to China under the cover of buying “covid supplies,” then China launders the money into financial kickbacks for the Governor’s family members or business entities.”
California’s contracts with BYD have faced significant scrutiny from lawmakers and the public since Newsom first announced the deal in April on MSNBC. At the time, he said the state had agreed to buy 200 million masks per month, mostly N95s, which are thought to be the most effective in preventing the spread of COVID-19.
California paid nearly $500 million up front for the N95s, but did not receive any for months because BYD did not secure federal certification for them until June.
BYD twice failed to obtain federal certification for its N95 masks in time for deadlines laid out in its contract with California and had to refund half of California’s upfront payment because it missed the first deadline.
Despite the initial delays, Newsom said the deal with BYD and the state’s overall strategy for securing masks has “been a success.” So far, the state has received hundreds of millions of surgical and N95 masks from BYD.
I found nothing to corroborate the assertion that Kemp purchased masks from China. He has been fighting mask mandates, so it does not seem likely. He explicitly banned Georgia's cities and counties from requiring masks.
Is Lin Wood's statements made during the interview in your post the only source you have for this?
No one in California knows how to make masks? Let me guess, all the factories are on lockdown.
