“Let me see if I understand this. Muslims have a problem with gays, bacon, dogs, people drawing pictures of their prophet, women showing hair, music, they think it’s okay to marry a 6-year-old, but if I have a problem with Muslims, then I’m the problem?”

🚨 BOOM: SEN. MIKE LEE JUST WENT WAR MODE ON THE SENATE PARLIAMENTARIAN

 

She may try to OBSTRUCT the SAVE America Act in reconciliation (only needs 50 votes) and Lee is getting ahead of people like Thune saying to "protect" her

 

"Nobody elected the Senate parliamentarian. The Senate parliamentarian occupies no constitutional post in our system of government!"

 

"You're going to hear we need to PROTECT the Parliamentarians' rulings, saying they can't be overturned…"

 

"Nobody's calling for the parliamentarians' rulings to be overturned. Why? Because the parliamentarian DOESN'T RULE! She lacks that power. Only the presiding officer rules. The parliamentarian merely offers ADVICE."

 

"The presiding officer, whether that's the vice president of the United States, the president pro tem, or the acting president pro tem…is the presiding officer who makes the ruling. It's then up to the Senate to either sustain or overturn that ruling."

 

"In most contexts, it takes a simple majority vote to overturn the ruling of the chair. In budget reconciliation, it takes 60 votes, so the math changes. But regardless, there is nothing sacred about the rule of the Senate parliamentarian!"

 

"So don't believe those who say that you've got to protect the parliamentarian at all costs."

 

"It's not her vote that matters. She doesn't have a vote. It's the ruling of the presiding officer that matters."

 

NO RECESS UNTIL IT'S DONE!
