Joe Biden, to progressives: “Pass the infrastructure bill and we’ll make sure the Build Back Better Act is also passed”
Also Joe Biden: “Golly gee, it’s too bad Joe Manchin is blocking the Build Back Better Act. If only there were something that could be done about that.”
Joe Manchin tells Fox News he’s a ‘no’ on Build Back Better in huge blow for Biden
he West Virginia senator Joe Manchin dealt a huge blow to Joe Biden on Sunday by saying he was a “no” on the $1.75tn Build Back Better domestic spending plan.
Biden and Democrats said this week they would delay the bill until next year. The president said it would pass and that he would continue talking to Manchin.
But with the Senate split 50-50 and Republicans unanimously against, Manchin’s opposition means Build Back Better is all but dead in the water.
Joe Manchin will not be up for reelection until 2024, if he chooses to run again. He is 74 years old and approval ratings continue to go down in his State of West Virginia. This guy needs to be booted off the stage.

Having Joe Manchin in the Senate is like having a lump of coal in your sock while on a five mile hike.

Manchin thinks coal is too valuable to give it away.

Manchin is in the pockets of billionaire donors. Some are Republican. BBB taxes the rich. Manchin can’t let that happen.

Remember that Joe Manchin isn’t the only one. There are also 50 Republicans also blocking it and anything else that would benefit Americans.

We have unlimited funds to spread death and destruction throughout the world.
But we just can’t find the stomach to find some funds for ourselves.
Priorities are important to Mr. Manchin and others of his ilk, and there are far too many of those to name here.

Put more pressure on the Trumplians and they could turn that coal to diamonds (in 20-30 million years)

If you’re going to go down Joe go down swinging. Make Manchin vote no on the senate floor.

Figures since Manchin makes millions off coal. That’s his real reason to kill the BBB legislation, it has funding to fight climate change.
