White House press sec. Jen Psaki: 'Just as Senator Manchin reversed his position on Build Back Better this morning, we will continue to press him to see if he will reverse his position yet again, to honor his prior commitments and be true to his word.'

The Powerhouse Roundtable breaks down the latest news on"This Week."on"Fox News Sunday," when he announced that he is a"no" on the legislation.

"This is a no on this piece of legislation. I have tried everything I know to do," Manchin replied, adding that Biden worked"diligently" and was"wonderful to work with" but knew he had concerns. "On Tuesday of this week, Senator Manchin came to the White House and submitted—to the President, in person, directly—a written outline for a Build Back Better bill that was the same size and scope as the President’s framework, and covered many of the same priorities," Psaki said Sunday.

Manchin argued COVID-19 and inflation should be where the country is focusing its fire, rather than dragging out the negotiations further."I've tried. I mean, I really did and the President was trying as hard as he could.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., who has been one of the senators leading the charge on the Build Back Better bill in Senate, responded to Manchin's no vote on CNN's"State of the Union."

CeciliaVega DOWN WITH JOE MANCHIN REPLACEMANCHINANDSINEMA

Ya mean like Biden’s countless promises he’s gone back on. Save it PressSec

He is switching to independent.

ManchinIsCorrupt

Be true to the pressure Biden put on him or be true to the American people? Hmmmm...I think I'd like the latter...

👇

Manchin serves one purpose…HIMSELF! ResignManchin!

Can we push Biden and this administration to also be true to previous promises that people voted for?

As long as his gop buddies are happy, that's all that matters.

She has no business calling anyone out to honor their commitments.

Awesome news

From MANCHIN himself 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Thank God

Simpsons Predicted it

AND....Saves the nation!

Biden’s plan was over reach & would lead to more inflation With no more spending plans what are Biden & progressives going to do in 22?

Thank you Senator Manchin; you are the only democrat that has a backbone; it's time that all 100 senators sit down and agree on a plan; not just one party, like a dictatorship, but unified, something that Biden lied about doing

Who is paying him?

As long as he has his, right?

Thank god for him - it was a horrible bill - he was the only one to have guts to stand up to it. Shame on all the others and media that pushed such a horrible agenda. Not everything in it was bad, but omg - don't pack these bills full of shit.

He's a republican and needs to be kicked off the democratic ticket.

It is unacceptable that the Democrats let Sen. Manchin have so much power which he uses to rub in the taxpayers face who pay his salary, healthcare, pension, travel, housing, and offices. He does not want the taxpayers to have the same benefits and opportunities like he does.

I WANT JOE MANCHIN REPLACED FOR TAKING $1,5,000,000 FROM THE GOP TO VOTE AGAINST PRESIDENT BIDEN AND GOOD PAYING UNION/AMERICAN JOBS IN THE BUILD BACK BETTER PLAN!!!

How is this man not been recalled yet?

Actually, if it weren’t for that one $550 billion item, Manchin would probably be onboard.

He needs to be loyal to the people he represents, no Joe Biden

Can't stand her

Nah, his commitment, or any Senators, shouldn't be to the President or party but to the people of his state. Commitment to the party is what got us where we are now.

Promises and glassware are easily broken!

My Town has not Stopped fixing the Roads Maybe it's Time to Hold Every State and Town Accouble for their Budgets ? 'moreso Washington' could Learn Something on how the Common folk Manage there $$ instead of Mismanagement of 'Americas' Peoples'$$ Some Business Classes also

Continue to press him = threaten him

Three words to sum up Jen DUMBASROCKS.

Judas

Time for President Biden to schedule a Town Hall meeting in West Virginia in January 2022!!! Let’s hear from the citizens of West Virginia. Please call the WH and let them know….

you represent the most corrupt president in history.

Wow. Fighting words.

Democrats Brace for Rewrite of Biden Spending Plan to Woo Joe ManchinSatisfying pivotal senator could force substantial changes in what President Biden described in October as Democrats’ consensus healthcare, education and climate bill. Shame on SenSchumer He is running down the clock for God's sake, for Coop 2.0. Kill the filibuster and pass 100 bills a day until any attempt at sedition or destroying the planet is snaggled in its tracks. Instead of this, should focus on fixing issues like making healthcare premiums and college tuitions affordable no matter the income level. Also build more houses to fix supply/demand issues making it hard for owning homes now as it’s becoming expensive.
