About this episode

House barely passes a package of government spending bills to end a partial shutdown. One bill for the Homeland Security Department runs two weeks, intended to provide time to develop  federal immigration agent conduct & accountability reforms; Brothers of Renee Good, who was shot & killed during an ICE protest in Minneapolis, testify in Washington at a Democratic forum; House Oversight Committee chair James Comer (R-KY) announces former President Bill Clinton & former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will sit for depositions  at the end of February in the committee's investigation of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The agreement puts on hold House votes holding the Clintons in contempt of Congress for not obeying a subpoena to testify; more Congressional reaction to President Donald Trump's call for Republicans to 'nationalize' and 'take over' elections; National Institutes of Health Director Dr. Jay Bhattacharya answers questions about vaccines & autism before the Senate Health Committee; Senate hearing on Netflix buying Warner Brothers and antitrust implications.
