“Call” on him all you want, but he’s not in charge.

An actual crack in the monolith! Manchin goes from GOP obstructionist to a democrat with an obvious solution to the energy crisis, drill, transport and refine. The regime can’t change course without causing an explosion on its left.

Funny when you see Dems occasionally break character and say things that make logical sense. Unfortunately the party doesnt respond well to those that do.

It’s also already too late because the pipeline company has already cancelled the project and moved resources elsewhere.

I think Politicians are starting to realize that they have far more clout in a government without a mentally functioning president with seriously low poll numbers.

If no one is home, there isn’t really the strong leadership to stop you beyond over using a stasi tactic of having the FBI invade a house, ect.

Yup. As much as I feel Manchin is a fake, he knows which side his bread is buttered on. He wants to be reelected.

Not much Manchin can do except force Biden to do something constructive that’s good for the long term. I think there’s a potential Alaskan Pipeline that can be pursued...as well as some leases.

We were energy independent without the pipeline. Still could be with proper defiance.

Climate Change has been happening since the beginning of time. Anything we do is miniscule. But using no fossil fuels is pure idiocy...Where do the Dems think electricity comes from??

Wind and solar can never provide our needs...it's plain stupidity. They are accessories to fossil fuels.

I remember reading that. But Biden has such a wonderful relationship with Canada....we’d have to beg to revive it.

That is why it is an obvious BS gesture (which liberal Democrats understand). HOLLOW~

C’mon, Joe, show your gratitude toward our Republic and do what’s right for American and the American people, flip the U.S. Senate. You can do that ... you can become an American hero ... in an instant ... all by yourself.

They won’t, because they’re tired of the BS from the States. Their fallback project is building a pipeline to the Canadian Pacific Coast... for China to buy their oil instead, thus depriving the US of it.

My concern is that he’ll use that as a swap: My vote for the restoration for Keystone.
