Furious Jen Psaki is blindsided by Joe Manchin’s ‘sudden and inexplicable’ decision to kill Biden’s $1.75 trillion Build Back Better spending bill: Democrat ‘refused’ to take call from the White House minutes before announcing position live on TV
- The White House lashed out at Joe Manchin on Sunday for finally definitively coming out against Joe Biden’s Build Back Better agenda
- Jen Psaki said ‘Manchin’s comments… are at odds with his discussions this week with the President, with White House staff, and with his own public utterances’
- Manchin, a Democrat, said that he can’t vote for BBB – even after the New Year
- ‘I cannot vote to continue with this piece of legislation,’ Manchin told Fox. ‘I just can’t,’ he added. ‘I’ve tried everything humanly possible. I can’t get there’
- Senator Bernie Sanders immediately condemned the remarks, saying: ‘Well, I think he’s gonna have a lot of explaining to do to the people of West Virginia’
- Chuck Schumer on Friday pushed back the BBB vote until after the holidays
I love it when the Dipshit Party is unhappy
Don’t know why Democrats do anything but I’m sure glad he did that!
Wish the Repubes had the same fight in them.
Of course Manchin isn’t just doing this for his health, probably has bigger political aspirations in mind.
Manchin should join Trump’s MAGA GOP. There’s room for a pro-abortion Republican.
chikita, there is no room in the inn for any pro abortion politician.
none.
Kill Bill pt 3
“Sudden and inexplicable” – no, it’s just common sense.
Pretty sure Joe has neither principles nor integrity, so he must be getting some WVa backlash. He’s an astute politician and reads his constituency well.
Ya figure he’s in his 70s and has never done a day of work in his life, so he’s pretty damned good at what he does.
mortem tyrannis
izlamo delenda est …
There’s still 50 Republican Senators Pres Slo Joe could try to reach, if he had any experience in ” reaching across the aisle” in 50 years in DC. No attempt to make this bullshit bill “bi-partisan” at all … I guess Manchin is a “maverick” like the celebrated McCain.
Welcome aboard, Joe!
Joe Manchin did not kill himself!
I’d love to see Psaki’s head explode on TV.
They say you can have this back stabing POS, claim the dirtbag will fit right in.
