Biography[]
Exposing her Mother[]
- "I thought Congress put a stop to all Task Force X activities since your daughter outed you."
- ―Rick Flag, Sr. to Amanda Waller[src]
After discovering the truth about A.R.G.U.S. using Belle Reve prisoners for missions in Task Force X under the direction of her mother, Amanda Waller, Adebayo called a press conference to publicly expose her for human rights violations. As a result, the United States Congress forced A.R.G.U.S. to stop all activities on humans, however, taking advantage of the legal loophole, Waller created Task Force M, consisting of non-human prisoners.[3]
