Abbott Labs gave $500K to Trump's inauguration. Now the criminal investigation into whether their formula sickened and killed babies has been shut down.

🎤 Whisper Transcript (en) ⏱ 57s

"What does Donald Trump's inauguration have to do with unsafe baby formula? Well, Abbott Labs, a big corporation that makes baby formula, gave half a million dollars to Donald Trump's inauguration. And now, surprise, Donald Trump is shutting down the investigation into Abbott Labs that they potentially poisoned babies. For years, the Department of Justice investigated Abbott Labs over deadly bacteria being found in one of their plants that made baby formula. The babies who drank that formula, some of them got sick. Some even died. So, prosecutors thought they had a criminal case. But after Abbott Labs gave half a million dollars to Donald Trump's inauguration, the case has just disappeared, been shut down. That is corruption, plain and simple. What does Donald Trump's inauguration have to do with unsafe baby formula?"
