Do you see anyone you recognize? The #FBI is still seeking information to help identify individuals who actively instigated violence on January 6 in Washington, D.C. Visit ow.ly/skY550D3JL1 to see images from current cases, and submit tips to fbi.gov/USCapitol.

24 years in NYC and not once voted to make our city a better place. Stayed silent on all the issues that impact our kids. Didn't vote by absentee, nada. The most basic form of participation and didn't move a finger for us. Now wants to be Mayor? #HowSway cityandstateny.com/articles/…

Went to @CityMD in March and just got a bill. After applying @Aetna insurance, bill was $228 bc Aetna and @CityMD had negotiated a contract rate of $300 for service. I was told if I paid cash w/o insurance my bill would have been $200. @Aetna and @CityMD please explain yourselves

this is bonkers. US states compete with each other in the 'market' for vital protective equipment for doctors. guess how the 'market' responds: with higher prices. your elites are killing you, unfolding live in the US.

I’m calling on the Federal Government to nationalize the medical supply chain. The Federal Government should immediately use the Defense Production Act to order companies to make gowns, masks and gloves. Currently, states are competing against other states for supplies.

This is the type of insidiousness around foreign propaganda that should wake us up to the real cost of disinformation networks. Sure undermining democracy seemed less concrete, but now... Will the GOP/Twitter/Facebook take it more seriously now that our lives are at stake?

What we do next will have a massive impact on the trajectory of this virus in New York. We can only maintain public health by STAYING APART. The decision each of makes now will impact us all tomorrow. STAY HOME.
