The parliamentarian is there to tell her how to say it in the proper form. It prevents her from just yelling out, "Hey, shut up y'all!" That would not look good on the record.
Edit: It might not be called parliamentarian, but I'm willing to bet there's a name for the person hired to provide the proper language when needed.
I thought the parliamentarian's job was to make sure the rules and procedures are properly followed. Serious people don't have others feeding them lines in order to do the basics of their job. Even allowing for the fact that they're a bunch of degenerate criminals, they should at least be able to fake credibility, don't you think? Seems super sus to me.
Really?.... I'm sorry but that's a lame excuse...You Telling me that someone has to be told "The Gentleman is Not recognized"....You Have to be told that??... I'm not in politics but even I know that you cannot speak out of turn and if so that's the first thing the Chair/speaker says..."You're not recognized"...
I agree they're supposed to know their own stuff, if they're sitting in that chair. They're supposed to know the gentleman is not recognized, etc. But the longer phrases that handle personal outbursts might not be memorized by the person holding the gavel. That's when I think you will see some guy leaned down to speak into their ear and tell them what needs to be said. I would think that guy leaning down to talk in their ear is hired for that position because he knows all the language. But he wasn't elected to sit in the chair. That's what I think is going on there. I also agree there is plenty of room for corruption in that regard, as the person whispering the instruction could himself be listening to an earpiece from an ex-president with big ears.
Parliamentary rules are insanely complex, most of that complexity being dedicated to resolving disagreements over what is or isn't in order for a person to do. The formalities of these organizations are almost all scripted beforehand, with the real discussions and planning happening before the meetings. You basically spend 3 hours of prep time for 1 hour of official business, in order to prevent hundreds of hours spent in lawsuits and challenges.
Of course, that's no excuse for the chair not to know the basics. "Shut the fuck up" is one of the first formalities you need to learn for a contentious body.
The audio contains an unseen man saying the lines before the woman with the gavel says them. It is as if she has an earpiece and he is feeding the lines to her.
Oh look, another wobbleheaded know-nothing puppet mouthing the words it's fed from its handler.
This one and the Brillo-head spokesdyke should get together and have a parrot-off.
Isn't that what a parliamentarian does? To ensure that the correct language gets into the record for whatever situation? Doesn't seem unusual to me.
Seriously...?Then Why is she there?...being told exactly what to say.....Its a f*cking shit show

Yeah, that's exactly my point...And she didn't know that and had to be told what to say???
Well, the "The gentleman has not been recognized" is essentially "Dude, you're going off script, shut up, we didn't plan for this!"
But she should absolutely have known the simple things to say in order to tell him to sit down.
Exactly my point...
Well isn't THAT interesting....
I Thought so...
First time watching CSPAN? This is common procedure.
I can't quite make it out. What was said?
The audio contains an unseen man saying the lines before the woman with the gavel says them. It is as if she has an earpiece and he is feeding the lines to her.
Someone told her what to say and then she repeated it. Two times. First at the 10 second mark and then at the 16 second mark
Ohh yeah I hear it! I thought we were listening to what was being yelled in the background and I missed the creepy whispers.
What is the source of this clip? Why is the whisper audio in it?
I remember hearing it the day after it was live. I don't know if it was heard live.
She was being Coached on EXACTLY what to say...
Where is this clip from and why was it released with the coaching audio whisper in it?
I remember it making its rounds the day it happened, did not watch it live though myself so? ? If anyone did see it live, let us know.
Its normal for someone to be coaching like that, especially if the person presiding is filling in for someone.
"Members are reminded not to engage in personalities against other members of the House."
It's a strange sentence. I'm not surprised she had to be reminded of the exact grammar to be used.
