Description: In a heated exchange during a hearing in the Senate HELP Committee, Senator Bernie Sanders confronts Joe Biden's nominee for FDA Commissioner, Robert Califf, on his history of making money from his connections with big pharma. At first blush, one might have thought that Califf was a Donald Trump nominee. Senator Sanders has since said he is opposing Califf's confirmation. It remains to be seen whether the establishment Democrats and Republicans will join forces to confirm him in spite of his past.
