Trump won West Virginia by almost 40 points — TWICE.

Refusing to take a call from Biden is the easiest decision Manchin will ever have to make in his life.

“…a breach of his commitments to the President and the Senator’s colleagues in the House and Senate.’…”

Hmmm…I guess the Senator knows that his commitment is not to Biden or to his own colleagues, but to the citizens of West Virginia and to the U.S.

Tough dookie for Psaki and Co.

He peed in their punchbowl. Biden was talking out his ass — and had nothing to say about the contents of the bill anyway — so it was Biden who in effect didn’t keep his word, and Manchin had had enough of Biden’s ********. Psaki’s just a professional liar.

With this subsidy, trial attorneys will launch frivolous actions more than ever before, especially against smaller businesses lacking the resources to defend themselves who would therefore have a strong incentive to cry uncle and settle.

“I’m still betting on a Manchin cave sometime early ‘22.”

I think the Dems will meet his terms (which is eliminating 50 to 75 of the crap in the bill), just to get something. To us, it will look like a cave, and the Dems will claim such...but it will simply be what Manchin’s been holding out for the entire time. Because, unlike the RINOs, Manchin never opposed this bill outright - he only opposed the size of the bill.

Me thinks they doth protest too much. I would no be surprised if this is all Kabuki theatre and they are acting for thee benefit of their base.

And I still won’t be surprised when Slow Joe and Manchin are standing hand in hand in the Rose Garden amounting a last minute deal to secure Manchin’s vote.

Joe gets his multi trillion $$$ bill passed and West Virginia gets to restart coal mining operations (or something like that).

same.

First girl I fell in love with in High School, red head ballerina.

Later married a red head.

My wife and I ran into my high school sweetheart and her mom shopping years ago.

Same height, same hair length. A little awkward.

I’m sure her and her mom had a good laugh afterwards.

The DC establishment’s unspoken response to Sen Manchin: he must be made an example of before more democrats decide to abandon the US Government’s deep state communist reset agenda. Hope Senator Manchin has some really good bodyguards!!

“The White House accused Joe Manchin...”

The White House is a freaking building. Last I checked, buildings don’t make calls! Someone needs to work harder to identify who in the White House has their hand up Joe’s butt and is moving his mouth.

Like Brandon telling us there would never be a vaccination mandate. Jan and Brandon can sure dish it out...


What a couple of condescending whores, you know, two peas in a pod.
