Well we do need the grid upgraded, especially with the strain the Democrats plan to put on it, the bridges and roads need to be fixed, and we need to harden everything against cyber attacks, those are just facts. It looks like Biden tried to pull a fast one and got caught, even Reuters reported honestly on the duplicity instead of ignoring it, so infrastructure, sure, but completely surrendering to half-baked proggies wishes and hopes, not so much.
How much will their friends The Chinese Communist Party get from this Bipartisan Infrastructure Scam ?\\
Don’t know, but I bet

Will get 10% for the ‘ Big Guy ‘.
Shockaaa!
Damn!
Where do all these ilk get the
Manson Family eyes ?
( or is that just the meth? )
Yep, the GOPe managed to save to corporate tax cuts and block municipal broadband.
AT&T and Amazon are happy with the deal, so they will get the GOP senators they own to vote for it.
Who is Cassidy?
Cassidy is a snake in the grass.
i don’t think there’s any skin left on the back of America. where you gonna put the knife mcconnell?
“He’s turning into a RINO.”
He’s left of that and accelerating away.
It would seem that McConnell is reverting to being McConnell.
Couldn’t they just go after all the Fraudsters who took advantage of the Kung Flu Stimulus Bills and use any recovered money to build new Infrastructure?
There were tens of Billions of Dollars lost to Fraud when the Kung Flu giveaways were passed.

Well they ran the Tea Party out of town and made sure they were targets until they were destroyed.
They may be going the same here with Traditional America and the Middle Class.
When you loathe the base, anything can and will happen

So here's how it went:
Biden, after passing six trillion in new spending, wanted another three trillion for "infrastructure."
"Infrastructure" now defined to not mean roads, bridges, ports and airports, but "human infrastructure," like... child care. And all other items on the socialist wish list.
The GOP stupidly entered negotiations.
They came to what they stupidly thought was an agreement: one trillion in real infrastructure. The Democrats could also vote on a separate two trillion bill for "human infrastructure," and Senate Republicans would vote against that.
But then Joe Biden, who is also stupid, blurted out that he intended, once the infrastructure compromise bill was voted on and passed by the Senate, to use the rules of reconciliation to pack the bill back with the two trillion for "human infrastructure."
And Senate Republicans couldn't stop this. Once a bill has been passed and is in the reconciliation process, there is no filibuster any longer.
So the Democrats could now pass their three trillion fake "infrastructure" bill with just 50 Democrat votes, plus the Mad Cackler Kamala Mouthlove.
It's absolutely incredible that Senate Republicans -- for all their weakness and stupidity-- could get tricked by the very stupid brain of Joe Biden, but that's the GOP Establishment working on all six cylinders, folks.
I don't believe they were "tricked."
I think they understood this was the plan all along.
I just think they were blindsided by the decrepit, dying-brained Joe Biden stating what the plan was in public, so that they could no longer feign public surprise about the plan they'd agreed to in private.
Bonchie demands a "reckoning" for our Failure Theater senators.
It's difficult to get played by a senile old man whose brain has the consistency of pudding, but somehow, Republicans managed that feat today. Failure theater is back, and it's reaching new heights.
As RedState reported earlier, Biden announced an agreement on a bipartisan infrastructure deal, complete with a grinning Mitt Romney and Lisa Murkowski standing beside him. Following that dog and pony show, the president then proceeded to demonstrate the finer points of existing with cognitive decline. Regardless, according to the Republicans on the negotiating team, this was supposed to be a great victory and show of unity.
Of course, then reality smacked them in the face. Biden, within an hour, let it be known that he would not sign the bipartisan agreement unless he was given everything else he wants in a reconciliation package that would naturally be passed along party lines.
BIDEN: If they don’t come [in tandem] I’m not signing them.
…
REPORTER: Do you support then, Speaker Pelosi’s stated plan to hold the bipartisan deal in the House until the Senate also passes reconciliation? Do you support that sequencing on her part?
BIDEN: Yes. pic.twitter.com/yY6rU2KNCF— JM Rieger (@RiegerReport) June 24, 2021
Bonchie notes that McConnell is now sputtering with rage, but all of this was perfectly foreseeable from the outset of the "negotiations."
And the fake anger now is a crucial part of the Failure Theater script-- pretend to oppose the socialist agenda, somehow get "tricked" and "beaten," and then run ads telling your gullible voters that now you're spittin' mad and if Republicans just send one hundred more dollars, now you'll start fighting those treacherous Dems!
Livid and "blindsided" over President Joe Biden's refusal to sign a bipartisan infrastructure deal without passage of his broader priorities, Republican senators Friday were frantically considering options as the future of the sweeping compromise appeared in doubt.
...Senators were described as "stunned," "floored" and "frustrated"- after Biden later put the conditions on accepting their deal, according to people familiar with the private conversations and granted anonymity to discuss them.
"No deal by extortion!" tweeted Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., on Friday.
F*** you, you degenerate liars.
IT
IS
THE
EXACT
SAME
SCRIPT
EVERY
G******
TIME.
Note that the only reason that Failure Theater might actually fail here is that the brain-damaged dementia patient Joe Biden made public the plan that had been worked out in secret before the critical vote, and now Republicans can't vote for the bill they always intended to be jam-packed with Democrat spending priorities in reconcilation.
At least -- I think they can't. We'll have to see! Maybe John Cornyn can create another deceptive voting mechanism where Republicans can pretend to vote against the spending bill while actually having voted the bill into law.
They did that with both the Iran Deal and opening up the debt limit under Obama. They created a process whereby Republicans could "vote" no, but... the mechanism also said that the Obama could go forward with the Iran Deal and raise the debt limit with his own power if the bill failed to pass.
So I think we have another one of those coming up.

Yup! Purposefully spending our nation into collapse under the guise of helping the poor / less fortunate.
It seems like Republican voters will never learn to recognize TransRepublicans. (Assistant Democrats in R jerseys)
Flimsey Grahamnesty has voted to give amnesty to illegal aliens and the Democrats a permanent majority THREE times and SC voters re-elected him TWICE since then.
Tucker Carlson had a segment on this tonight.
The Obama/ Biden Infrastructure plan is coming to your suburb very soon when the plan is implemented with little resistance from Republicans.

Towns could have to chose between forfeiting the money or allowing apartments in every neighborhood and allowing suburban lots to be subdivided for as many houses as will fit
Stealth Goal Of Infrastructure Plan Could Be To Abolish The Suburbs By Bribing Towns To Change Zoning Laws
Democrats may use their massive “infrastructure” plan to bribe local governments to essentially abolish suburbs, by making grants contingent upon towns and counties allowing apartments in any neighborhood, including those currently limited to single-family homes.
That creates two scenarios, both of which benefit Democrats seeking power: If jurisdictions want to preserve a small-town feel, they must turn down the money, meaning the massive infusion of taxpayer dollars turns into a bonanza for Democratic-dominated cities, while leaving others out
Or if centrist suburbs give in to the temptation to take the money, they would essentially be signing a contract to become architecturally dense, like cities — and once those apartments and townhouses were built and filled with residents, they’d likely become solidly Democrat, like most urban areas. Both outcomes would irrevocably and fundamentally transform the country.
USA Today reported in April that “Biden’s proposal would award grants and tax credits to cities that change zoning laws to bolster more equitable access to affordable housing. A house with a white picket fence and a big backyard for a Fourth of July barbecue may be a staple of the American dream, but experts and local politicians say multifamily zoning is key to combating climate change, racial injustice, and the nation’s growing affordable housing crisis.”
The logic is that minorities are “trapped in crowded neighborhoods” that are not pleasant to live in. Yet the solution, under this logic, appears to be making the places suburbanites live more crowded, with apartments and townhouses

And that’s true.
Of course, they want to control where you live, what transportation you use, and where your kids are educated.
Anyone denying that hasn’t been paying attention.

They came to my town with a hi-rise three years ago, but were rejected. The feds fined the town $400,000.
That is what they will do to any suburb resisting the government, just for starters.
