Yes, and that's the trick: They would've been released regardless, this is what the Feds were doing to people, trying to get them to waive their rights to saddle them with obviously illegal demands.

The opinion polls for who “won” this hearing would literally match Trumps approval rating. i think the dems did a good job with what they could do.

But you see I was told that this is the best we can expect from the Democrats right now and that we should just focus on victories at the state and local level that can be used to pressure them at some nebulous future date.

Are you telling me that such a strategy is insufficient?

Yeah, this announcement is literally just "we're gonna give a lot of money to a company that has repeatedly failed in business and technology to enter a whole new field and cure covid", huh?

That's kind of sad.

And now I have to go do research on Kodak so I can shoot down a whole new set of arguments in life.

it's not that crazy. Kodak would have had pretty substantial laboratory/chemistry facilities, and there's plenty of things that are required to design a vaccine that aren't moving proteins around. like you need the augur plates and poo poo
