Tillis did push hydroxychloroquine whilst holding shares in in several of its pharmaceutical producers, including Sanofi and Novartis. He is corrupt as well (no shock, he is a Rethug Senator, a lawless lot if there ever was one).


https://american-ledger.com/accountability/thom-tillis-promotes-hydroxychloroquine-while-holding-stock-in-its-producer/

North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis has been promoting a dangerous and untested “miracle” drug, Hydroxychloroquine – which has not proven effective in remedying coronavirus – as he holds a major financial stake in several of its pharmaceutical producers, including Sanofi and Novartis.

Tillis offered Hydroxychloroquine as a potential cure to coronavirus to his constituents at a tele townhall on April 9, 2020. The Food and Drug and Administration (FDA) has recently warned the drug is not safe due to harmful side effects.

The drug is manufactured by pharmaceutical giants such as Novartis, Sanofi, and Amneal Pharmaceuticals. And according to Senate financial disclosure reports, Tillis stands to benefit from these companies’ efforts – Tillis holds up to $200k in funds with stocks in all these pharmaceutical organizations.

Tillis’ not so coincidental push for the wonder drug, comes as the other U.S. Senators – such as Kelly Loeffler (GA.), David Perdue (GA.), and Richard Burr (NC) – have been accused of insider trading of stock in relation to COVID-19.

5. Biden's AG Can Still Re-Open The Investigation

There is no double jeopardy because Barr halted the investigation. Likewise, all the illegal things Republicans have been getting away with under Barr are fair game for Biden's AG as well. I hope Joe puts an absolute SHARK in that job. Criminal investigations may result in regaining control of the Senate as well, which would be an added bonus.

Let McConnell file lawsuits if he doesn’t like Biden getting things done without the Senate’s input.

Or solidifying control beyond a doubt, which is another reason all Repubs in both houses, along with Barr himself, should be nervous.

I think you are on point. We need to show the true Americans who voted for Democratic politicians that NO ONE is above the LAW. When we do that, they will know their vote was worth something and will want to vote again.
Results mean victory!!
