I remember reading that Kushner said, it’s a blue state problem (at first). So effing evil.

Not just that, but they actively ransacked medical supplies from hospitals and ports.

People forgot too quickly about states activating their national guards to protect their medical resources from the feds.

I said it then, been saying it since, the first Trump admin committed politically motivated genocide, not just inactively by targeted withholding of aid (which is already arguably not "inactive" or "passive"), but by actively robbing states of their own supplies.
