Pelosi says $1.2T infrastructure bill vote will happen Thursday despite Dems’ infighting

The vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill is set to move forward on Thursday, despite progressives vowing to withhold their support for the measure until there is movement on a sweeping social spending bill — with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi saying “we are on a path to win the vote.”

Pelosi’s confidence in the vote comes as top Democrats seek to pass the $1.2 trillion infrastructure deal and President Biden’s $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation bill, while moderates and progressives have signaled their willingness to kill both in recent days.

“I do not plan on not doing anything,” Pelosi (D-Calif.) said when asked if she would delay the vote. “I plan on moving forward in a positive direction.”

Will the fake Republicans snatch defeat from the jaws of an apparent victory?
Pelosi won’t typically call a vote that she knows will go down. I smell a rat.

Just how is Pelosi going to get the infrastructure pork through when the reconciliation pork does not have likely Senate approval? What will Schumer and Pelosi promise everyone to get them all to play nice together? Can they? I tend to think this is DOA but I do figure that there is a place where they can all agree. What will that look like?

Let’s face it.

Pelosi is the real president of the U.S.

Biden and all democrats follow her orders.

Every policy and mandate issued since Jan 20, has been from her or thru her approval.

There is only one obstacle in her way, and it’s not the republicans. He is called Manchin. He is the only one that can save the U.S. from the madness of Pelosi and Schumer. He lately has more power than the president (the one that’s being used by Pelosi), and we probably should change Mancin’s name to “SopermanChin”.

The only way she can have this vote is because there are 7-10 Republicans ready to vote for it. I hope they are Primaried!

Every day I pray for Joe Manchin’s continued good health. And for his courage not to waver.

imo

It's all about the narrative.

Geobbels repeated words over and over and over again until a nation bought in.

The democrats have have modest success with the tactic in the past ... don't let a good _____________________ (fill in the blank) go to waste

These depending bills are how pols steal our tax dollars-——none of these trillions will benefit taxpayers.

Biden’s massive spending plans also includes inanities like:
$3 billion for ‘tree equity’,
$12 billion for electric cars,
$1 billion more to turn government facilities into ‘high-performance green buildings’
plus millions more for gender identity and bias training.
Free stuff for illegals —— Dem voting blocs,
More importantly, the entire Biden Crime Family.......even the littlest Bidens.......all get to be multi-billionaires.


SPEAKER PELOSI: “We have to keep government open… to address the full Obama agenda of building back better”

Barack (”I got mine, suckers”) Obama fit right into The Swamp.

Suckled at the teat of the Chicago Democrat crime machine, his thieving skills are second to none.

The halfrican never met a decent, honest pol his whole life.

The corrupt Biden was an easy VP pick.

CFP-——Welcome to The Pelosi Suck… It has been about 9 months and everything the Biden Administration touches turns to absolute sh**i. Hold onto your butts cause it’s only going to get worse, much worse.

The POTUS approval ratings are going to be hitting negative values any day now and Congress is not far behind.

People are tired, pissed off, and things are so bad, the Democrats might as well be firing red pills out of a machine gun at all US Citizens.

It’s going to be almost another year before anyone can do anything about this miserable situation which is far and away worse than the Obama years and the Carter years combined.

The only good thing about any of this is the damage it will do to the Democrats and not just in D.C. but everywhere. Which explains why the House Democrats are not all on the same page.

They are up for election come November 2022 and are witnessing apocalyptic polling numbers.

It is little wonder Nancy has a problem with getting a vote to pass the Biden Crime Family’s trillion dollar nest egg..

If the Republicans are smart they’ll give Pelosi the votes she needs to pass the infrastructure bill. Doing so will drive an even deeper wedge between the progressive wing of the Democrats and the slightly less progressive wing.
