If you want a detailed technical view of what the Fed is doing I highly recommend Nathan Tankus' blog. Though I don't think he's specifically covered Blackrock's role.

I'd start with the series "The Federal Reserve's Coronavirus Crisis Actions, Explained"

Who is that author? He seems to be the "research director" of a student group (MMN) but does he have qualifications?

He's an ultra left wing, "defund the police", full time twitter posting noise generation machine.

I was surpised a little at that, and am personally ok with that, but his expertise on the Fed is pretty much tangential to those views. Tankus has been quoted in places like the Washington Post for his detailed discussion about Fed activities.
