@KPcolorado knew a vaccine was coming for at least 9 months, but didn't use the time to construct systems to ensure efficient and timely vaccinations of seniors.
Seniors who use #Medicare ... so
essentially tax dollars were wasted. We will need investigations and transparency so future public health disasters are better handled. @jaredpolis put senior lives in the hands of providers that lack the capacity
and the capability for an essential task. This despite reams of research that says provider communication is key to successful health outcomes.
We knew our health system was piss-poor at managing #chronicdisease- CVD, metabolic syndrome, obesity

This is @laurenboebert's campaign manager. BTW, she is all about billionaires/millionaires (including C OGovernor @jaredpolis) "flipping" us into socialism. Now I don't quite get why wealthy capitalists want socialism that would strip them of their wealth. vimeo.com/465195363
God called Bishop to this effort, apparently. She is quite handy with apocalyptic and "end-times" language, as well as a very militant approach to politics. I'm thinking @KyleClark would enjoy this presentation, perhaps for #heynext

If there are more ex-SEALs like @AdamNewbold21 on the loose, the Navy has created a significant domestic terror threat. @SecDef Austin needs to do a critical top-bottom review of what happened with Newbold, make sure he has

@Carvana was supposed to deliver a car in the next three hours, something that was scheduled over a week ago
At the last minute, they notify it won’t be here until Tuesday.
Guessing they couldn’t find a truck, but they knew that days ago.
You have to wonder about @Carvana’s generally competency, and their motivation, in this notification. Does this extend to other parts of their business. #TheNewWayToBuyCar still has significant impairments of the old way to buy a car
What else did they dissemble about? Will we find significant undisclosed damage to the car? It’s #unsettling at best, and cast doubts about the whole of the frictionless @Carvana purchase process
