Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. fired a warning shot at Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.V., as the moderate West Virginia Democrat continued to vow that he will block any "crazy socialist agenda" on Capitol Hill.
The stakes are high as the balance of power appears to be hanging on the results of two Georgia runoff elections in January that will determine if Republicans will maintain control of the Senate or if Democrats seize the chamber by a 50-50 margin with Vice President-elect Kamala Harris acting as the tiebreaking vote.
On Monday, Manchin made headlines on "Special Report" when he told Fox News anchor Bret Baier that he would "commit" to voting against ending the filibuster and packing the Supreme Court.

“Republicans should go all out to get Manchin to cross the aisle.”
That wouldn’t really be a gain. Manchin goes what what he perceives will benefit him in the long run, nothing more.
Yes Especially if they lose in Georgia
Oh, Faux News, you crack me up.
She like a spoiled young child playing with a loaded hand gun.
Manchin is a fraud
I think there is an understanding that if a Republican defects *cough* Murkowski *cough* then Manchin would follow.
“She gots the cray cray eyes”
They love her. They re-elected her. She’s expanded her power, the squad numbers 12 now.
People don’t understand how bad this all is going to get.
I don't particularly like Manchin, but is there ANY doubt that AOC is a psycho?
Who does this?
You’d better not shout,
You MAGA hat guys,
You Trumpian louts,
Had better get wise,
Sandy Cortez is gunning for youse!
She’s making a list,
And checking it twice,
Gonna find out,
Who’s nazi or nice!
Sandy Cortez is gunning for youse!
She sees your contributions,
And votes for Hitler Don,
Antifa elves will pound your ass,
So you’d better go get gone!
With a shooty shoot shoot,
And a Trumpy Trump dump,
She and her squad,
Will moider yer rump!
Sandy Cortez is gunning for youse!
And Bret believed him???
Just for the record, Trump's share of the vote in West Virginia actually INCREASE in 2020 from 2016. Ditto for Wyoming and many if not most of the solid Trump counties in Pennsylvania, including ours.
Of course, it is hard to cheat here in Westmoreland County because we run honest elections. So that might be a big factor.
Yeah she is a petulant little narcissist...perfect for a demonrat..

“I don’t particularly like Manchin, but is there ANY doubt that AOC is a psycho?”
She is, no doubt. But she’s on her way to becoming wealthy, if she isn’t already, and she’s a very powerful psycho.
Could only happen in a dysfunctional third world nation.
Evil and cray cray.
In a way her getting elected did do at least this much good: it has alerted any guy who might have married her that she’s NVTS and a commie ... now no one can say that they didn’t know where before some luckless guy might have been fooled.
Here’s an alternative theory:
Manchin is doing Schumer’s bidding. His statement SEEMS to take the destruction of our Republican form of government off the table in the Georgia races. But then he changes his mind later.
Bolsheviks: openly want Revolution and socialism now
Mencheviks: pretend they don’t want socialism and are playing the long game
Are there any other types of politically successful Democrats anymore?
