Since you only used one word, the fact that people "misunderstood" is your fault, entirely, you were too vague. As for what cheating methods we should use? Anything and everything we can, at this point. We can't win if we're the only ones following the rules, unless we can force them to do so.

His lawyer was one of my professors, so the entire Final Exam was about the Pentagon Papers case. Gravel read the report (Re Vietnam) on the floor of Congress to make it "public".

I haven't seen a butterly on my little acre for years. I see moths. We had so many things growing a couple years ago. I was so spoiled. More veggies than we could consume but I haven't been able to plant for a few yrs now. This yr all I have is NM essential. Hot chile peppers. But no butterfies! Sad

I don't recall. I just remember she was defeated in primary so she was a write in and won. I remember the effort to get the spelling of her name to be acceptable. Dems have come in some seriously red areas. I hope they can get in there. Some ppl are waking up to. This bill is...criminally insane.

I’m afraid she’s in peril nonetheless: “The parliamentarian can be overruled by the VP or fired by the Senate Maj Leader. Such actions are rare and controversial. Only one parliamentarian has been fired, and overruling their decisions can set a precedent that affects future legislative processes.”

Ask yourself why Thune is allowing the Senate Parliamentarian to continue to appropriately rule during the legislative process of der fuhrer’s Project 2025 linchpin legislation. Some 2017 Tax Credits expire at year’s end if this reconciliation bill doesn’t pass b/c of the Byrd Rule.

so much damage has already been done, though if the Dems can take back one or both Houses next year, it would at least render Taco largely impotent. He could still issue EOs though Congress would be in a position to legislate them.

The parliamentarian rules on request. The spineless Dems are also taking credit for things like jettisoning the firearm background check ban, just because they're the ones who raised the objection. Having the whole bill read aloud is also a lame stunt. Why aren't they fighting by making 47 > 53?

What will Trump ask her to vote? There you go. Murkowski is not some "Sensible republican". She, like Romney and McCain, is as MAGA as they come. If she were? She'd be a democrat - since democrats want 99% of what Trump does.
