Omar – a member of the House Democratic Conference's progressive Squad – said Monday that the best way to deal with the parliamentarian's ruling is simply to ignore it.
"This ruling by the parliamentarian, is only a recommendation. @SenSchumer and the @WhiteHouse can and should ignore it. We can't miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to do the right thing," tweeted the progressive politician.

Isn't that typical of the demockrats - just ignore any rule or law with which you don't agree. But you know what, it wouldn't surpruse me if Biden and Schumer did exactly that. Remember the rent moriatorium?
I think the appearance and governmental participation of "The Squad" was an ignored "ree flag" to Americans. I still can't understand how they ever got in office.
I guess there are NO eliminating criteria? AOC I know comes from NY, sadly. The others I am not even sure are American citizens, but then neither was Obama. So guess that sort of answers my question. We have been gaslighted over and over again.
Oops: "Red Flag."
