Sen. Susan Collins called out not only Sen. Elizabeth Warren but also all the other Democratic members of the Senate Health & Education Committee for wasting time during Betsy DeVos’ Tuesday confirmation hearing.
Elizabeth Warren told Donald Trump’s secretary of education nominee that
“swindlers and crooks are out there doing back flips” at the thought of DeVos’ confirmation.
But then added “if you can’t commit to use the tools that are already available to you in the Department of Education,” then she should not be confirmed before stating she was looking “forward to having a second round of questions.”
“I cannot help but think that if my friends on the other side of the aisle had used their time to ask questions rather than complaining about the lack of a second round,” Collins hurled at Warren, “they each would have been able to get in a second question.”
“I now used 15 seconds of my time to make that point.”
But they were 15 seconds much better spent than any of the time Elizabeth Warren used.
