susan Collin’s is a total waste for Republicans and congress in general. she needs to go. she never does the right thing.
Agree with you 100% also Tillis and Rand Paul are a disappointment they are always against the president. I know they don’t always have to agree but these ones seems to almost always go against. Too many rinos in the republican side! Time to look at the rinos and vote them out on midterms elections. They are not helping instead are hurting the President job!
If it doesn’t include sbr, hpa, no tax on ss, or no medical for illegals forget it.
Really mad that the parliamentarian was not let go. She caused a lot of problems the biggest one is making us pay for illegal immigrants to be on Medicaid. That is absolutely ridiculous there should be some way to be able to cancel that. Wake up Republicans get some balls and start acting like you really care about America
Leader Thune and president Trump are to blame here.
They are voting to fund illegals and trans surgeries for minors.
Look it up.
Not true. The parliamentarian ‘s at fault here. President Trump asked they ignore her ruling about funding Medicaid for illegals. There’s an article about it on The Hill.
President Trump urged Senate Republicans on Sunday to overrule the chamber’s parliamentarian in order to pass key parts of his sweeping domestic policy bill.
In a Sunday post on Truth Social, the president backed a call from Rep. Greg Steube (R-Fla.) and other GOP hard-liners to ignore rulings from Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough.
“Great Congressman Greg Steube is 100% correct. An unelected Senate Staffer (Parliamentarian), should not be allowed to hurt the Republicans Bill. Wants many fantastic things out. NO! DJT,” Trump wrote.
The parliamentarian is the nonpartisan Senate official whose responsibilities include determining whether parts of laws meant to be passed through budget reconciliation comply with the rules for that process.
Budget reconciliation bills can pass the Senate with simple majorities, thereby averting the filibuster. But those provisions must follow specific instructions passed through a budget resolution and not expand the deficit past the window laid out in the bill.
Hard-line conservatives were fuming following MacDonough’s decision Thursday to reject key Medicaid cuts in the Senate version of Trump’s major policy bill, and an increasing number of Republicans in both chambers have upped the pressure on their colleagues to challenge the referee’s ruling on the floor.
“How is it that an unelected swamp bureaucrat, who was appointed by [former Sen.] Harry Reid [D-Nev.] over a decade ago, gets to decide what can and cannot go in President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill?” Steube wrote on the social platform X.
“The Senate Parliamentarian is not elected. She is not accountable to the American people. Yet she holds veto power over legislation supported by millions of voters,” he added.
Overturning the parliamentarian would require support from at least 51 senators on the floor. The senator presiding over the chamber, known as the chair, could issue a ruling that contrasts with the parliamentarian’s decision, which would have to be sustained with 51 votes to move forward.
Senators in both parties have called for the parliamentarian to be overruled in recent years. In 2022, Democrats tried to overrule the parliamentarian when they were working to pass their marquee bill known as the Inflation Reduction Act.
MacDonough was first appointed Senate parliamentarian in 2012, becoming the first woman to hold the position. Then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) elevated her to the position.
The Senate narrowly advanced the bill Saturday night after rewriting some key sections to address MacDonough’s concerns, clearing a key hurdle before final passage.
Senate Democrats have also pushed their Republican colleagues to hold a meeting with the Senate parliamentarian to decide the crucial procedural question of whether extending Trump’s expiring 2017 tax cuts adds to future federal deficits.
Democrats say Republicans have “flat-out refused” to engage in discussions, The Hill reported.
The partisan battle over how to “score” the budgetary impact of making Trump’s 2017 tax cuts permanent could determine whether Senate Republicans would need to rewrite the sprawling 940-page bill on the Senate floor.
Democrats must decide whether to force Republicans to obtain a parliamentarian ruling on the Senate floor Monday on whether making the 2017 Trump tax cuts permanent would violate Senate rules. An adverse ruling on the issue could derail the bill, but Republicans are confident that won’t happen.

Mebeta, your information apparently came from fake news. I looked it up.
So billions will be sent to countries that hate us and illegals get free medical. This BBB sucks!!!!
The house might not send it to Trump. The members are pissed what the Senate did to the bill and what was added and removed
What about medicaid to illegals? I hope they know the majority of us does not want this!
Medicaid was cut and the vote was cast by the VP. I’m not sure exactly what this entails. I do know President Trump well enough to know he is not in favor of illegals being here period much less paying for their health cost or any other cost associated with Americans taxpayer dollars. The parliamentarian pulled some stunt that might have caused some issues but that had nothing to do with what President Trump wanted. I’m sure if he could fire her he would have. The article below indicates that President Trump asked the Senate to ignore the parliamentarian’s ruling. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5376089-trump-urges-republicans-to-overrule-parliamentarian/
