Senate parliamentarian, I believe. She's in charge of all the wacky procedural rules. (She doesn't make the rules; she just tells you when you've broken them.)

technically the presiding officer is in charge but itd be a breach of custom to overrule the parliamentarian

It's not going to happen, but it would be hilarious if Johnson came in a voted No, leaving McCain all sad and ignored in the wings. "But but...my moment..."

I left the thread to start my Weekend of Peace Thursday night, hours after the news broke. There were absolutely posts around that time of "oh geez, I can't be glad he's going to be dead now, cancer sucks :smith:"

Even before the news of the letter he sent previously to someone with his exact condition telling the family to move :lol:
