If the Republicans want something they'll do what ever they have to ... to get it done ... Including firing the Parliamentarian! ... The Democrats are too afraid to do that!
It doesn’t even have to go that far. The opinions are only advisory. the presiding officer ( K. Harris) can issue a contrary ruling. So you are right that is just an excuse. So are Manchin /Sinema. medium.com/@michael_18575/th…
I know it's a show. Tthe Parliamentarian is appointed by the Speaker of the House and has been since something like 1927. It's it is OBVIOUS who's agenda the Parliamentarian is enforcing. Isn't that right @SpeakerPelosi?
