NEWS ON THE BALLROOM -- The $1B for USSS is one of the most important things Republicans are dealing with right now. It is the single provision that is standing in the way of ICE/CBP funding. Trump wants this on his desk by June 1. But that's all been complicated by the $1B for security, including Trump's ballroom. Forget the House floor right now. it's irrelevant. all the action will begin when the Senate moves the reconciliation bill. As @LauraEWeiss16 scooped last night, Senate is not only changing the $1B language, but they are also considering lowering the number from $1B. Senate is engaged in a lot of Trump management right now. They know Trump wants the money but they also know that, in its current form, they cant pass it. The parliamentarian is a side show, for the most part. Because if the language ends up on the floor, it could easily come out during vote-a-rama. And here's the real kicker: The House is even trickier. Absences and opposition will kill this provision in the House. Johnson has been warned by rank and file. This won't fly. punchbowl.news/archive/51926-…
