A friend dug up a piece I did on my experience running NYP Ryan F. Larkin Field Hospital during the COVID crisis in NYC. In light of all of the madness this week I updated it. I was there. I saw what this disease did and the desperate fight we were in to stop it. It was much worse than you know.

Dear Dems: enough with the ‘progressive vs establishment’ insanity. We need to unite & defeat Trump & the Repubs in Nov. Because THEY are the ‘establishment’. They are the ONLY establishment that matters right now. Because THAT establishment is corrupt & dangerous & controls EVERYTHING in DC
