“””Where the heck did the RATS dig up this skank and who voted for her?”””

Didn’t the democrats spend months complaining about unelected people running the show?

Who knew that this unelected democrat had veto power over the Federal government?

It is not in the Constitution. What it is in the the reservoir of cowardice and complicity of Thune.

BREAKING: Senate staff reading of the Big Beautiful Bill out loud is only at page 580 of 940...and it took 10 HOURS.

A long way to go.

Thanks to Chuck Schumer.

Always have had a parliamentarian, or at least since way back, but he/she works behind the scenes, just refereeing the rules enforcement.

Those blows don’t even come close to Trump’s blows on despicable media sites such as Politico et al.
Shove it, you silly journalists.

This latest is specifically aimed at Murk. The provision the rat hit was the one used to get her vote.

The Senate parliamentarian has already been overruled:

@LeadingReport

“BREAKING: Senate Republicans added defunding Medicare for noncitizens, refugees, and asylum seekers back into the ‘Big Beautiful Bill,’ per Punchbowl.”

Single subject bills or bust:a plethora of unitentional consequences are brewing in this big ugly bill.

Hey at least we gets tax cuts /s. We are all big government faction whores I guess, riding this fiscal irresponsibility 'can' until the road ends that the next generation will be killing us over. Does anyone support limited government anymore? If so, why must we embrace big government to save limited government?

Grok says:

The current Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough was appointed in 2012 by then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Democrat, without a formal Senate vote. Her appointment was praised by senators from both parties, including Republicans Richard Shelby and John Thune. She was retained by Republican Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in 2015, further indicating bipartisan acceptance.

Thune said it was “against tradition” to just yank her Commie arse with no warning, although he has the power to do so.

To me, it gives Swamp rats like Thune and all the USAID/government pilferers more cover and funds to wait out a Dem-majority in 2026 and the return to normal (DEI, trans, open borders, censorship, Muslim takeover, no crime punisment, Planned Parenthood, no drug laws, etc.) that will come with another fixed Presidential election like 2020. Imagine Butt Gig or AOC as CIC?

Gunless, impoverished, AI-monitered Sharia law incoming.

The swamp trying to run the show…and it works as long as the majority party is just as swampy as the minority party.
