Looking forward to seeing the Lepers Colony jump three more pages between them banning discussion of this and mods in QCS saying it’s illegal to criticize with only one act of war a month to judge on, “what about the other guy after all”

Dems were never going to be able to get everything they promised done with just 50 senators, in 2022 with 52 to 53 senators they'll be able to overrule the parliamentarian without Manchin throwing a fit.

the parliamentarian is fine imo, they're literally just there to remind people about the stupid loving rules our system has, that can at any time be broken

iirc it doesn't actually have to be harris, schumer can also tell her to pound sand if he's leading a session at the time

Like people are really giving the parliamentarian an enormous amount of power in this fantasy for some reason, where they actually don't have any at all. The only thing they do is determine whether or not something qualifies for the byrd rule (something that can, again, be overridden by senate leadership or the VP) and refers poo poo to committees.

the power of the parliamentarian fiction is extraordinarily useful to both the senate (as a way to divert blame and shrug) and the people, who can hang onto the fiction and not damage their faith in the country or leaders.

Also, and perhaps most significantly, Obama's legacy would even more be destroyed if Biden orders the VP to override the parliamentarian.

Once they start they can't stop. The moment the parliamentarian is overridden, Obama's first term looks even worse.

OK, that's,,, uh not great, but better than what the tweet conjured in my head. I was picturing something like sexual assault involving text books and spiral bound notebooks.

Even without the 15$ minimum wage, it's important to remember that the covid bill is still a hefty 1.9tn$ of stimulus that's going to help a lot of people and help the economy get back to its footing. There's a second infrastructure reconcilliation bill that they can probably pass in time for its effects to be felt before the mid terms. Passing 15$ would've been the right thing to do but it isn't essential for their electoral chances by any means. Especially when we consider the following possibilities:

1. Democrats might be becoming the "turn out during mid terms" electorate due to polarizartion and other efforts. Which would be disastrous for Republicans.
2. That Dems will succeed in passing two significant bills that help people.
3. The GOP seems to be in the midst of a civil war and the Trump faction appears to be winning, which will help with Dem turnout and strangle GOP turnout, especially if Trump remains off the ballot.
