This drone footage captures NYC workers burying bodies in a mass grave on Hart Island, just off the coast of the Bronx. For over a century, the island has served as a potter’s field for deceased with no known next of kin or families unable to pay for funerals.
For families, the terrible loss of a loved one to COVID is exacerbated by the costs of funerals and burials many can't afford right now. That's why @Ocasio2018 and I delivered $2 billion for FEMA to pay funeral and burial costs for families in need—including for countless New Yorkers.
We weren’t allowed to have funerals for my husbands parents who both died of Covid in nursing/assisted living facilities or have a gathering to mourn them and yet it’s ok for protesters to get together in huge crowds without masks to tear and burn down big cities.
That was a f*cking disgrace. The rules were crystal clear & people missed weddings, births, deaths & funerals to respect them. For @BorisJohnson to stand there & bare-faced lie to save his lying hypocrite aide is a slap in the face to everyone who obeyed the rules HE enforced.
Italy has banned weddings and funerals for 16 million people. Japan has closed schools for a month. France and Iraq have banned public gatherings. The U.N. has canceled all physical meetings to address climate change. Americans are uncertain what to do about Coachella.
I’ve gone to too many funerals in my own state. I’ve talked to too many mothers who’ve lost their kids in war. I’ve talked to too many soldiers who’ve come home with PTSD, who have come home without arms and without legs.
How this is going to go: America: Outrage, sadness NRA: Complete silence NRA supporter in DC: Thoughts and prayers WH: Statement of grief, praise 1st responders Media: Lamentations, coverage of funerals, candlelight vigils Adds up to: Nothing changes #RepeatTheRitual
This is like the time Trump said he lost "hundreds" of friends on 9/11. Zero. He lost zero friends on 9/11. He attended zero 9/11 funerals. Zero parents of fallen Korean War soldiers have spoken to Trump. Zero.
