Who’s running that lab? Dr. Moreau?
Making smart mice? that’s an option since it seems we are running out of smart people.
No wait. They said to “humanize mice” That would make them dumber and probably vote for the dems. It seems logical though as so many mice and rats live in the project houses. It would be a better blend with the current inhabitants.
On the other side they would be breeding even faster than they do now.
