Today is rent day for millions of Americans & that’s not an April fool’s joke. Without more than a $1200 one time payment coming in, millions don’t know how they’re going to pay the rent & also eat. There were already 40m hungry people in the US. Food shortages are rushing at us

Old people who live alone, who depend on others shopping for them who aren’t now available to do so. Multiply that scenario by millions & that’s what we’re dealing with. Our political leaders should be talking about this. It’s not just the virus: there’s much attendant suffering.

Millions of old people w/ caretakers not coming in, some barely able to move, many looking at a loaf of bread & wondering how long it will last. There are many heroes showing up to take care of people & we all have to be among them. Govt now at a fraction of proper response level

It's not the government's job to take care of us. What you're asking for is a nanny state. That is wholly un-American.

Government thru media has done a remarkably awesome job... of delivering fear & panick throughout this entire nation. In order to get control of the ppl to achieve their "goals"... they're doing a magnificent job. cuz its working isn't it.

In your own backyard, #CD13 LA City Councilmember @MitchOFarrell cast deciding vote against full #EvictionMoratorium for LA proposed by @MikeBoninLA . Nothing hurts our elders more than being evicted. How callous of O’Farrell; condemning thousands of seniors to being unhoused.

this is nothing new. families need to check on family. set aside their differences. but you choose to blame and spread hate. pathetic. under the guise of love. sad. very sad.
