Johnson, Trump, Debt Ceilings, and Filibusters...

What happened to the conservative party being fiscally conservative... Not when their "Pretend King" #trump tells them to throw out their traditional values and follow him instead.  2 years in he is going to be impeached and removed. #MarkMyWords - Either by his own party or with bi-partisan support...  Mike Johnson is a #MAGA lackey, so he will attempt bow to trump every time.  Thanks to the Filibuster it's not likely this will happen. However, the #republicans  will try to invoke #BudgetReconciliation, but, can be stopped by invoking the #ByrdRule which means: 

---

Provisions that do not have a significant budgetary impact can be challenged.

If a senator raises a "Byrd Rule point of order" and the provision is deemed ineligible, it can be removed from the bill unless 60 senators vote to waive the point of order.
