0:23Josh MarshallVerified account @joshtpmGov@GovPritzker confirms that the federal ‘Air Bridge’ flights from China, organized by the White House taskforce, are bringing PPE back from China which are then turned over to private companies. The states then have to bid against each other to purchase from those companies. pic.twitter.com/QG62dWtQucShow this thread6 replies 47 retweets 120 likesShow this thread -
