Absolutely crazy: Two major shipments of PPE purchased by MA (by the governor) were impounded by the federal government en route. Feds then cited "force majeure" to compel them to sell the millions of masks to them instead. HCW in MA be damned. #COVID19 https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/04/02/nation/kraft-family-used-patriots-team-plane-shuttle-protective-masks-china-boston-wsj-reports/">https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/04/0...

2) Insane - MA had created a back channel to get the N95 masks from China via a chartered NE @Patriots plane.

3) MA knew the Trump administration was seeking to seize any N95 purchases from China. MA treated the orders as “humanitarian mission” —> but orders still seized. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤦🏻‍♂️" title="Man facepalming (light skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Man facepalming (light skin tone)"> #COVID19 https://twitter.com/universalhub/status/1245767398822760448?s=21">https://twitter.com/universal... https://twitter.com/universalhub/status/1245767398822760448">https://twitter.com/universal...

4) Keep in mind the governor of MA Charlie Baker is even a GOP governor (same party as Trump). And the conservative governor of Alaska was also helping the operation along the way by letting crew of the Patriots plane rest and refuel in Alaska. #COVID19 https://twitter.com/universalhub/status/1245771590677270530?s=21">https://twitter.com/universal... https://twitter.com/universalhub/status/1245771590677270530">https://twitter.com/universal...
