While many have observed that instead of pleading the Fifth, Martin Shkreli should have at least commented on his pricing practices which have been the cause of much consternation, one thing is clear: the young indicted CEO just declared war on Congress by tweeting that it is “Hard to accept that these imbeciles represent the people in our government.”
