I've long said proper place is committees BUT that Chairs have obvious conflicts. They've now confirmed that. So replace Chair.

When I say Dems should propose to McConnell/Burr a solution to his now proven conflicts, I'm basing that off leverage.

How to keep it in Senate, allow most appropriate investigation to go forward? New acting chair for the probe.
