A few days ago I urged you to keep eyes on the Senate Parliamentarian, Elizabeth McDonough, bc I could see her coming into the news. Yesterday, she did. Parliamentarian is an unelected position, which ensures what is in abill is germane to the bill. They play a crucial role in budget reconciliation processes (which only need a simple majority to pass) and can determine whether certain provisions of bills comply with Senate rules.
Right now, she has the ability to decide what should or shouldn’t be in the Big Beuatiful Bill. McDonough dropped the hammer yesterday, removing the ban on no medicaid for IAs. Dems were cheering, Rs were seething with some calling for her firing.
She also blocked no gender transition funding from Medicaid and removed the no SNAP benefits for IAs provision. Dems were cheering, Rs were seething with some calling for her firing. Last night we got news the provision banning IAs getting SNAP benefits is back in the bill. The Rs went around McDonough and got it back in - do the same with banning Medicaid for IAs.
For an unelected gov’t worker bee, she holds a lot of power with these budget reconciliation bills. Eyes on. Senate Rs are still pushing for this to be done by July 4th.
Also be aware Dems are trying to exclude tips for barbers and beauty salon workers from the no tax on tips in the bill. They hate us.
IS NETANYAHU READY TO FACE REALITY?
If DJT pulls this off, the Dems and surburban Karens will be flocking to their therapists in record numbers:
And don’t think Khamenei is getting a pass! Victor Davis Hanson has a great piece up on how much the ME countries and others around the world hate Iran.
Both Khamenei and Netanyhu are finding themselves on the hot seat with their people. So will they rise up and demand leadership change? That’s the real DJT goal.
WHO’S YR DADDY NOW?
the EU announced it’s ready to make a trade deal with the US; and
DJT announced yesterday a trade deal with China was signed; and
India is next.
PENTAGON PRESSER.
Hegseth didn’t disappoint in going after legacy media:
Karoline Leavitt says they are looking at Dem member(s) of Congress as the leaker(s) of the TS BDA. This is why the WH says it will be restricting Congressional access to intel. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
DJT posted this on TS yesterday:
Let’s see if this acutally happens. Once again DJT shines the light of exposure on them.
Senate Dems got a dressing down from Ratcliffe yesterday onhte BS sleaked story meant to diminish the OP’s success:
Follow Breitbart’s Matt Boyle - he has sources in every corner of DC.
TIDBITS FOR YR CONSIDERATION:
Here today, gone tomorrow:
The WH says this isn’t true, but people in the hearing confirm that’s what the gov’t lawyer said. Let’s see what happens.
Why do I think this is gonna happen:
The House voted to deport immediately any IA who’s convicted of drunk driving. 160 Dems voted against it.
Rep Andy Ogles has formally asked Bondi to revoke (NYC Dem mayoral candidate) Zohran Mamdani’s citizenship and deport him bc he was openly supporting terror orgs prior to becoming a citizen, making him ineligible. Rapper 50 Cent offered him 6 figures to leave NYC and the mayoral race after Mamdani invoked 50 Cent’s name, making it seem as if he had his support.
Chatter online increasing over the past few days re: how shipping containers are moving people (inc kids). Soon the world will come to learn what we already know. It’s NAC Hillary’s SS name was Evergreen:
Was the Mar-A-Lago raid really abt getting docs on Obama’s nuque deal with Iran? Paul Sperry believes so:
FINAL NOTE: KARI EVISCERATES DEM REP.
This happened on Wednesday and I thought abt including it in yesterday’s DB, but couldn’t find a clip of just the mic drop moment. I did yesterday afternoon. This is from a podcast so the podcaster sets the stage. Go to 1:36 in the vid to hear Rep Stanton’s last insulting comment and how her reply does even more damage to him in a perfectly reasoned response, tying it to the actual reason she was testifying:
Kari is a warrior. We all need to be warriors now for our children and grandchildren.
