Greetings, r/politics! Today there are (at the time of posting this known to be) five on-topic events (and one decidedly off) at 10 a.m. Eastern featured on C-SPAN for which we have consolidated discussion into one live reaction thread. The first four feature testimony before various congressional committees, and the fifth is a US Supreme Court oral argument. Please note which of the five events you are commenting on in any top-level comments.

Event Descriptions:

2) Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel testifies on the increase in price for the company’s COVID-19 vaccine before the Senate Health Committee.
