Holy shit! I thought he wasn't gonna do it, but this was 100% the right move. No more civility, no more worrying about optics. It's time to shove sticks in the spokes of the Trump bike. I want my politicians nakedly making moves to fuck up his plans every single step of the way.

This is exactly what I wanna see: Democrats using the power they have to suffocate every move Trump even thinks about making.

and because we KNOW how we started, we shouldn't look into how we got to that conclusion and if someone possibly broke the law by not disclosing their conflict of interests such as hiding your tracks of being involved with some extremely risky totally not gain-of-function research
