It's been more than 3 weeks since "Operation Catch of the Day" began.
Senator King and I have REPEATEDLY asked Kristi Noem for basic information. We also requested a joint briefing.
NONE of our requests have received a response.
We're demanding answers. Congressional oversight is NOT optional.

I made a friendly bet with Rep. Newhouse: If the Patriots won SBLX, he’d bring me some Washington cherries; if the Seahawks won, I’d bring him some Maine blueberries.
Let’s just say it was a long walk to Dan's office.
Congrats to the Seahawks!
(We’ll always have the Malcolm Butler interception.)
Even more enraging: All of the survivors who bravely attended today’s hearing have tried to meet with the DOJ.
Every one of them has been denied. Because the AG of the United States is afraid of what they might say about the President.
Pam Bondi is a total disgrace. She should resign immediately.
Not sure I’ve ever seen a high-level official embarrass themselves as badly in a committee hearing as Bondi did today.
It’s painfully clear that she went into this with one goal: to protect Trump from accountability over his involvement with Epstein—even it if meant perjuring herself on live TV.
More than a MILLION.
Trump is mentioned *twice* as many times as there are words in the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy.
Think about that!
Turns out, many of the redactions in the Epstein files were made solely to protect the powerful—like Trump.
Democrats are fighting to STOP THE COVERUP.
There’s some shady shit going on with Trump’s “Freedom 250."
Taxpayer dollars are being rerouted into a Trump-branded scheme where big donors get access to the president, history gets whitewashed, and money is moved with no oversight.
It's looking more and more like pay-to-play wrapped in a flag.
ICE and CPB are destroying lives, ravaging communities, and trampling on our constitutional rights.
We need real accountability. Democrats seem to be the only ones who care about making that happen.
ICE arrested ~200 people during its surge in Maine. Only a few had committed a crime.
DHS data shows <14% of the people they’ve apprehended had charges or convictions for violent criminal offenses.
Fourteen.
The “worst of the worst” argument was always bullshit. Now we have the data to prove it.
Frigid ferry ride this morning! This week in the House:
👉🏻 DHS funding is still up in the air. @housedemocrats.bsky.social are demanding changes before giving ICE another cent.
👉🏻 We’ll take up Republicans’ voter suppression bill—which would disenfranchise millions.
I’ll be a HELL NO on that one.
Who’s ready for Green Day and Bad Bunny tonight? 🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️ #ICEOUT #superbowl
In a truly free society, citizens don’t live in fear of their own government.
My Stop ICE Intimidation Act demands transparency and accountability and ensures that not one more taxpayer dollar is spent on this surveillance state.
Trump shared an AI video depicting the Obamas as apes.
This tells you all you need to know about his character—and how racist ideology has permeated the modern Republican party.
This isn’t a dog whistle. It’s vile, explicit racism shouted through a bullhorn.
This man should not be President.
This will impact *all* Mainers. And it could’ve been avoided. Instead, billionaires are getting enormous tax breaks.
The damage this Administration is doing to our country—and vulnerable communities especially—is incalculable.
40% of Maine hospitals are losing money.
76% are at risk of "severe financial problems."
Several have been forced to close.
Things are about to get worse.
Thanks to the Big Ugly Bill, 31,000 Mainers are at risk of losing coverage. That could lead to a potential death-spiral at many hospitals.
I guess funding Melania's so-called "documentary" was more important than paying literal war zone correspondents, photojournalists, sports reporters, and hundreds more.
Included in yesterday’s layoffs: the tech reporter who covers Amazon (because of course).
I’m completely disgusted by the layoffs at The Washington Post. It’s a travesty.
Jeff Bezos is worth $250 BILLION. He is single-handedly destroying one of our country’s most important newspapers.
As the paper’s masthead famously says, “Democracy Dies in Darkness.”
Bezos is turning off the lights.
The Kennedy Center is a living monument to a man who fervently believed in the emancipatory power of art and culture.
It’s a legacy that Donald Trump clearly doesn’t understand—and has no right to usurp for himself.
I will do everything in my power to ensure he doesn’t.
Read my op-ed at MS NOW 👇
ICE has scaled down in Maine. But they ARE still here.
Please continue to report ICE activity to 207-544-9989.
That so many people are calling my office about this means no one's taking anything for granted. They're continuing to protect their neighbors.
Be vigilant, be safe and KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!
To my Republican colleagues: This isn't a partisan issue. It's a constitutional one.
Please grow a spine.
If we allow this to stand, we are sending a message that any President can take any congressionally-created institution, bend it to their will, and shut it down when it becomes inconvenient.
