Manchin accused fellow Democrats of playing "shell games" with the cost of a $1.75 trillion social package and urged the House to pass an infrastructure bill that has already passed the Senate.
Speaking to reporters in the Capitol, Manchin accused House progressives of playing "political games" by refusing to pass a Senate approved infrastructure bill until every Democrat in the Senate endorsed the companion social spending bill. The bill requires for passage the votes of all 50 Democrats in the Senate, plus a tie-breaker from Vice President Kamala Harris.
'Centrist' Joe Manchin?
Manchin accepted over $400,000 from energy companies and GOP donors. Don’t toss him out. When his tenure is up, vote him out. Plus as citizens insist on closing coal producers, those attached to his portfolio. Punish him as he punishes you😉
Sen. Joe Manchin Collects Half a Million a Year From Coal Stocks Dividends: Report. Don’t you love his self interest covered in a dollop of hypocrisy. 😂🤣👌🏻👏🏻
Manchin’s shares in Enersystems are worth between $1m and $5m, according to his latest financial disclosure. What he means to say is he’ll wait to find out how bill impacts his portfolio. American selfishness is only surpassed by its capitalism & hypocrisy
Joe Manchin, America’s climate “decider-in-chief”, is a coal baron. American hypocrisy and capitalism go hand-in-hand. 😂🤣👌🏻👍🏻
This is the beauty of capitalism. Manchin has stocks in Coal producers. Why would he vote against them only to bury his personal profits. Selfish and self-centred hypocrite. When his tenure is up vote him out.
Biden, You need a plan to combat Climate Change. You don’t have a plan. You got smoke and mirrors.
Politician refuses to back a bill that no one can describe to him.
What? He wants to know what will likely happen? How can he be so irresponsible?
LoL, Manchin is backing coal more than Trump ever did. Just promise him technology development for clean coal he will sign anything.
Manchin ain't no centrist. He is obstructionist as McConnell , don't be fooled. Is there a little Ghislaine in Joe's dresser?
Makes sense, got to see what we're getting into...
if you are the *only one* how is that 'centrist'
He is the real president
he is the new John McCain - Maverick Manchin maverickmanchin
He is using all tricks to cover up his donor's instructions to fail Build Back Better. It has been uncommon to see two senators Manchin and Sinema, so openly and unabashedly so corrupt. Where's the voters outrage, picketing, protesting the betrayal and lying.
