Here's the February calendar for the committee Susan Collins chairs.
Not only does she determine the schedule -- she has subpoena power to haul folks from the administration in to answer questions.

Politico notes that Europe is holding people accountable for their chummy ties with Epstein, but the US is not.

The Epstein scandal is taking down Europe’s political class. In the US, they’re getting a pass.
As Europe moves to address its shame, it’s highlighting the comparative lack of accountability in the U.S.

Yeah the $2M Susan Collins proposed for ICE "de-escalation training" isn't just offensive -- it's ludicrous.
That's $90 per agent. The number drops to $24 per agent if you include Border Patrol.
Hard to imagine a less serious proposal. #MEpolitics

Can we not know the name of the alleged staffer posting racist shit from Trump’s account, or would that be “doxing” too?
1. What is this person’s name?
2. How many of Trump’s posts, which impact the markets & foreign policy, are being made by this person?
3. Have they been fired?

If Dem senators vote to extend the DHS CR again, they are instantly going to lose a tremendous amount of support from their base who have been in wait-and-see mode on this. I can only assume Dem senators considering this have completely lost touch with their voters. Don’t do it.

74% of Democrats support abolishing ICE, with 53% *strongly* supporting it, according to YouGov polling from last month.
Weak calls for "reform" are coming from *elected* Democrats like Chuck, not the average Democratic voter.

Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:
End the roving patrols and racial profiling.
Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.
Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.
