Vietnam veteran ('65-'66) Long time ago, but my oath to the Constitution doesn't expire. Live in Alabama (I know. I apologize.) I love democracy, of the people, by the people, for the people.

Republicans are talking about firing the Parliamentarian.

In 2001, Trent Lott, the GOP Senate Majority Leader, fired the Parliamentarian because he ruled that certain GOP tax provisions couldnโ€™t go through budget reconciliation.

Republicans are the only ones to ever fire a Parliamentarian.

Not a good idea to use Marines against U.S. citizens. But has Hegseth ever had a good idea?

She doesn't have the authority to "authorize" this. Only Congress has that authority.

Republicans try to make entitlement a dirty word. It's not. They're entitlements because you're entitled to them since you paid into the system all those years.
