Who is this genius

New Yorkers are smart. New Yorkers are resourceful. New Yorkers are united. New Yorkers are tough. We are all in this together and we will get through this together. #NewYorkTough

We are one nation. We need to purchase and distribute supplies working together as one nation. 50 states can't be competing with each other for the same supplies. It makes no sense.

“Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear.” — Franklin D. Roosevelt

We’re committing $800M+ in new #COVID19 response efforts, incl $340M in @GoogleAds credits for SMBs worldwide, $250M in ad grants for @WHO & 100+ govt orgs globally, a $200M investment fund for NGOs & banks to help small businesses access capital, and more blog.google/inside-google/…

We can't have 50 states all competing against each other for the same live-saving supplies. The competition hurts all of us by massively driving up prices. We need a nationwide buying consortium.

BREAKING: Abbott gets approval for point-of-care coronavirus test that can detect a positive case in FIVE MINUTES. Think of a strep throat test, but for coronavirus. In fact, it's the same platform. Company will take 50,000 of them available a day, starting next week.

I lost my Dad this morning to COVID-19. He was my rock, my best friend, and my hero. He had virtually no symptoms and 48 hours later he was fighting for his life. I’m begging you guys from the bottom of my heart, please stay inside and be safe.

Dr. Debbie Birxs stood at this press conference and lied. The conditions in NY Hospitals are worse than we are hearing. I have been sharing info from inside these hospitals. Dr. Birx, your job is to protect the American people, not this administration. TELL THE TRUTH!!!

JUST IN: 51 Italian doctors who tested positive for #coronavirus have died - Italian Association of Doctors

The temporary hospital in the Javits Center will fully open on MONDAY. I congratulate FEMA and the Army Corps of Engineers for their work at Javits. I thank the Javits staff. I thank the National Guard. You built a hospital in a week. You are the best of us.

We now know Trump was briefed on th coming Coronavirus on 12/22/2019. How many more ventilators, N95 masks & protective gear could we have had if we had a real president? He knew but chose to let us die, instead.

Donald Trump is suing to take this off TV. You guys know what to do.

Facts are empowering. Even when the facts are discouraging, not knowing the facts is worse. I promise that I will continue to give New Yorkers all the facts, not selective facts.

Last night—Republicans didn’t want to include provisions to prohibit Pres. Trump, his family, & businesses controlled by govt leaders from receiving funds Treasury will disburse We stared them down These prohibitions and our transparency reqs are in the bill that passed 96-0

We fought for urgent help for small business. My dad was a small businessman, an exterminator. I know how small business people worry and suffer. We wanted to make sure no one goes into financial ruin because of coronavirus.

Grateful for the heroes who are stepping up for all of us. Thank you to every: -EMT -Nurse -Doctor -Store clerk -Police officer -Mental health worker -Firefighter -Transit worker -Childcare worker -Mail carrier -Takeout cook -Deliverer -Teacher And many, many more.

The Four Seasons Hotel on 57th Street will provide FREE lodging to doctors, nurses & medical personnel currently working to respond to the #COVID19 pandemic. Thank you @FourSeasons. The first of many hotels we hope will make their rooms available.
