The consultant that came up with the idea to present the parliamentarian as some unstoppable arbiter of what congress can and can't do must have gotten a serious promotion.
The Democrats absolutely love trotting this person out every time they get the chance to possibly do something good, they just do it all the time now. It gives people time to cool down on Manchin and Sinema, the more rotating villains the better.
I did parliamentary procedure club competitions in high school and I'd never heard of the senate having a parliamentarian before Brandon needed another excuse to pass zero popular pieces of legislation
Had anyone ever fucking heard of this position before Brandon took office?
I remember it as a tiny tiny tiny footnote in civics class lmfao
