Democrat appointed Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough just ISSUED ANOTHER decision, ruling that Trump's efforts to lower fuel prices require 60 votes, not 50+1.

🧠 These people are STUPID!
They keep finding new/different ways to stymie our great president. Hopefully he has a work around. Although he won't have much help. The other thing I wonder, is can she actually do this? These are Senate rules that the Dems/Commies, and RINOs kind of change routinely.
I cannot believe the power was given to just one person to block the whole country.
Dig deep for dirt , I bet there is plenty
Yes. I am sure.
Rope fixes it.
Can we use hemp rope?
It could be the thin string bakeries use to close boxes.
Why doesn’t she just issue a “rule” that any republican bill require 99 votes? Our gov needs some serious reform!
She doesn't have the power, right?
Yeah you’d think that this would save some money for people struggling to pay the bills right now? You have to scratch your head and wonder when people will get mad enough at these crooks where they show up at their fucking front doors and start hassling them?!? Why aren’t people pissed off at this crazy woman’s actions? She is basically stealing money from everyone’s paycheck every week now.
You know why people are not ripping her limbs to limbs. Most of U.S are taught to love your neighbors as yourself. We are a country of rules and laws and based in the Bible.
Try that in another country and you will see it happen overnight. France comes to mind.
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold up there, yung feller- them rite thurr- them's "get glowed up" words, pardna... 😶🫣
Ding Ding we have a winner ;-)
Or, thune or JD can also fire you and rollback all your stupid cuts
All these politicians above POTUS. Incredible. It's like all the workers (accountants, customer service agents, engineers, janitors) can control the CEO of the companies.
Those CEOs get fired all the time. (The ones who lose control and fail to create a vision and steer it into realization.)
But accountants, customer service agents, engineers, janitors are not above the CEO. They cannot tell the boss what to do.
I wish Dorothy's house would land on this witch too!
Howls. I would love that.
Let this woman fall on her.

Chris Christie's twin! Apparently Ozempic is not sponsoring her!
LOL
I've never even heard of a Senate parliamentarian until now.
And why the hell can't this person be canned by the majority?
Let her prove her point. Need sauce. Otherwise she's just another drain on taxpayers
Same here.

Thanks. True.
What authority does the president have to do that anyway? And before you start shitting on me, what right does the president have to unilaterally adjust the price of anything? Why only fuel, why not electricity, or water?
I don't like any of this. I don't like these black robed tyrants stopping the president from executing their duties according to the Constitution either.
It's legislation. All Trump's doing is signing it, assuming it passes the Senate with 51-60 votes.
Thanks. I didn't know the answer either.

That’s not an issue she wants to mess around with.
No. You don't want to mess with Trump.
Sounds like a defacto filibuster glove thrown onto the FAFO floor
Sure hope so.
Ditch the bitch. Tom Arnold character in True Lies
Amen.

Clearly very partisan, not nonpartisan.
There are rule books for running effective meetings. Roberts Rules of Order is the most common book for most community and non profit organizations. Government groups have a different book, but the rules are written/ listed, including how many votes are required for specific types of motions. She needs to be quoting the rule book and the appropriate paragraph since I'd expect that many people in the House/ Senate are as ignorant of the meeting rules that are supposed to be followed to conduct meetings as the general public is ignorant of RONR. A crooked chairperson or parliamentarian can lie with ease, or distort the rules, and most people would never know, because the book of rules looks "complicated". I don't know who the government parliamentary rules are supposed to "protect", but the RONR rules are supposed to protect the members of an organization. However, I've seen certain "leaders" use it to protect themselves instead.
What you are saying is, she cannot arbitrary just change the rules, right? Don't they need to have these rules voted on b4 change?
You generally follow the rule book that you have chosen for your meeting. The bylaws for the group can override the rule book. No you cannot arbitrarily change the rules they must be voted on and there are rules for how many people must vote. Sometimes it's a percentage of the full body, sometimes it's a percentage of the people who show up to vote depending on how your bylaws are written. Some things require a majority vote, some things require a super majority vote. And everyone must be notified a certain time ahead of the vote of what the vote will be about. This is so they can't suddenly spring something on you when a small group is in attendance, but they still want to vote on it immediately. Sometimes you get an unethical chair person or parliamentarian and they can bully you into believing what they tell you unless you are very aware of the rules yourself.
That's what I understand. Usually the votes meeting notification one month ahead. You know way in advance that it's an important meeting.
