I was responding to someone who claimed the new GOP majority in the House would not go along with what the Senate wants if it unfairly changes the rules this way. I think that is far-fetched. The House will bluster, perhaps, but ultimately the Dems will get their way, and GOP voters will perhaps get some pork thrown their way.

The House has nothing to say about Senate rules.

Nor has it anything to do with confirmation of judges or approval of treaties.

But it dows have the power of the purse...
