Well, Grassley was just sworn is as Pro Tempore
The U.S. Constitution establishes the office of the President pro tempore of the Senate to preside over the Senate in the Vice President’s absence.
VP Grassley has a nicer ring to it.
How does that work if he is 3rd in line for the Presidency, knowingly took the position and was sworn in, if he didn't want it?
KEK!!!
Sure, Seattle:
Sanctuary City
Antifa Riots
Could this be the sign of National Guard moving in slowly for when SHTF?
Maybe not…
Under the Constitution, the Vice President may cast a vote in the Senate only when the body is equally divided. The question of whether a President pro tempore retained his vote while he was performing the duties of his office was clarified by a Senate resolution adopted on April 19, 1792, which declared that he retained “his right to vote upon all questions.”
My commitment to representative government and the deliberative body of the U.S. Senate is stronger than ever. I’ll work to see that we uphold the Senate as a check on the executive and judicial branches of government, including our constitutional authority to provide advice and consent.”
