I have been entertaining contrarian thoughts. Maybe a Democratic-controlled House should keep the committee going--and repurpose it.

I hope this isn't as whack as it seems, BUT

Imagine David Daleiden having to testify UNDER OATH

Imagine Rescue America honchos having to testify UNDER OATH about possible ties with violent anti-abortion extremists.

Imagine the authors of so-called TRAP laws having to testify UNDER OATH about the real purposes of their legislation.

I'm sure othe pro-choice DU members have equally good imaginations.
