Attorney General Pam Bondi and Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Director General of Health and Welfare, will have the opportunity to ultimately deliver justice to residents of elderly and elderly homes who have been unnecessarily victimized during the Covid pandemic. .
Several Democratic governors, including Andrew Cuomo of New York, Phil Murphy of New Jersey, and Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, all have been miserable to spread the virus to the most vulnerable populations to put elderly patients in nursing homes. I have made a decision.
In almost the first year of the pandemic, 14,450 New York long-term care residents have died at the facility. In Michigan, the Department of Health and Human Services allegedly 5,675 long-term caregivers have died from the virus. State-appointed auditors found that the number was very small. In fact, the number was 42% higher, at 8,061.
Last year, Cuomo testified before the House Oversight Committee, where he refused to take responsibility, instead excluded liability and was defensive. He admitted that he never consulted the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services before mandating a nursing home in his state.
Cuomo faces accountability, but Whitmer is not.
Once they start a new job, Bondy and Kennedy have the opportunity to find justice for the family who have lost their mother or father, patriarch or patriarch, simply because of stubborn bureaucratic incompetence or negligence.
One of the bravest examples of Whitmer's failure in leadership was accompanied by the death of 75-year-old Norman Bledsoe. The video filmed a 20-year-old man who begged him in a bed in a nursing home in Detroit. But why is a 20-year-old man in a nursing home? He was positive, and “some of Michigan health officials were part of a policy of sending patients to quarantine in local nursing homes rather than doing it at home,” Detroit News said. I've reported it. Army veteran Bledsoe was very badly injured and his family said he had lost the will to live.
The death of Bledsoe, and thousands of others, are in the hands of Whitmer, and the new federal leader has the power to gain justice.
The Justice Department attempted to obtain information from Cuomo and Whitmer about the deaths of the nursing home during Trump's first term, but was rejected.
“This is nothing more than a transparent politicization of the Justice Department in the middle of the Republican National Convention,” Cuomo and Whitmer said. This hopes that Bondi and Kennedy will not tolerate brush-off as their previous appointees did.
The governor's cruel policy of keeping our elderly loved ones away from their families during these vulnerable times for all of us was not allowed, but ordered that the virus be effectively brought into a high-risk environment. I did. Political leaders signed these orders, but were proposed by so-called public health experts. These decisions should be thoroughly investigated and accountability should be brought to those who knew the disaster was on the rise but did nothing about it.

Cuomo changed nursing home policies when he saw what was happening in May 2020. Whitmer, who had adopted Cuomo's policies as his own, doubled and maintained a power of attorney for several months.
It's when Americans are told the truth about these cruel orders and Attorney General Bondy and the immediate existence secretary Kennedy have the power to do just that.
