When Donald Trump leaves office, his will be a legacy of division, chaos, mismanagement & death. His administration’s disdain for expertise—and its penchant for wishful thinking & conspiracy theories over fact—have become yet more evident this year. #velshi

America is the richest nation on the planet, in many ways the envy of the world, yet 17 million people have become infected with Covid. America is 4.25% of the world’s population, yet accounts for nearly 19% of the global covid deaths. #velshi

Sickness & death were inevitable, but NOT at this scale. Covid could have been mitigated, but instead we got denial, confusion & bad advice. America's handling of this pandemic is a failure at the highest levels, and it should be investigated. #velshi

In 2001, Congress created a commission to look into the systemic failures that led to 9/11. The result was a change to our security protocols & ultimately, our way of life, to ensure it never happens again. #velshi

In 2006, Congress investigated the flawed response to Hurricane Katrina, resulting in restructuring of our emergency services. In 2010, after the BP Deepwater Horizon explosion, the government worked to hold oil companies accountable & prevent future spills. #velshi

The Trump administration’s covid failure this resulted in more avoidable deaths than any other American tragedy. An investigation into what went wrong & how this was allowed to happen is critical. #velshi

There will be another pandemic—the same experts who told us to expect this one have already warned us of that. We need assurances that our President can’t lie to us & can’t silence experts, let alone critics. #velshi

We need assurances that when a vaccine becomes available our government buys as much of it as it can & that when there are shortages in PPE our leaders do everything possible to get the safety equipment required. #velshi

We need to know that when thousands of our fellow Americans are being forced into unemployment, going hungry or dying, our leaders can be compelled to come together & help us. #velshi

The vaccines are out & there’s no doubt that was a success. But this medical milestone does not offset 10 months of lies & mismanagement, or the deaths of tens of thousands who didn’t have to die. #velshi

The stench of failure will never leave this administration, but America deserves to be sure that Donald Trump’s deadly mistakes will never be allowed to be repeated. #velshi
