Sen. Bernie Sanders accused Sen. Joe Manchin of “intentionally sabotaging” President Biden’s agenda after the West Virginia Democrat pulled his support from legislation that included initiatives to battle climate change and raise taxes on corporations and wealthy individuals.

“He has sabotaged the president’s agenda,” Sanders (I-Vt.) said Sunday on ABC News’ “This Week.”

“If you check the record, six months ago, I made it clear that you have people like Manchin, Sinema to a lesser degree, who are intentionally sabotaging the president’s agenda, what the American people, what a majority of us in the Democratic caucus want. Nothing new about this,” he told host Martha Raddatz, referring to Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema.

At least Manchin's not a Socialist, right?

Manchin is representing his constituents and doing exactly what he said he’d do - nice, and rare, qualities in a legislator.

Someone opposed Biden’s agenda and blocked it? This is the first I’ve
hears of it. That’s because it hasn’t happened.

The SCOTUS derailed a couple of things, but nobody has had the votes to deny him anything.

His build back better plans have not been blocked once.

Sanders is your stereotypical left-wing fascist -- the second any members of The Party aren't in lockstep with their Marxist ideals, it's 'sabotage'. That's their idea of 'reasoned discourse'.

It's not "Biden's agenda" anyway. "Build Back Better" is the master plan, but it sure isn't the brainchild of the senile, incontinent puppet in the Oval Office.

Him too, apparently.

I know. I can’t stand hearing him rant, either.

If you are opposed to the left’s agenda, you are sabotaging it
So basically, if you are running for office seeking to change the way things are done in Washington, you are an insurrectionist.

They won’t take it to a vote unless the votes are there. He is being blocked.

“It’s not ‘Biden’s agenda’ anyway. ‘Build Back Better’ is the master plan”

It’s not even his slogan. IIRC, plagierist that he is, he stole the BBB thing from someone else. (Can’t recall who.)

If anything, Manchin is slowing down inflation that dims created because we are not pushing out more government money. Sanders should be thanking him.
