Appointed by Biden

West Virginia Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin III backed the $1.7 trillion omnibus spending bill in December which included a $200 million increase in funding for a commission overseen by his wife. That money is now set to be paid out in 2023.

The commission in question, the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC), employs Gayle Manchin, paying her a salary of roughly $160,000 annually. The median household income in West Virginia is $50,884, according to U.S. Census data.

(snip) The West Virginia senator previously helped craft earlier legislation, following his wife's 2021 appointment, that allocated $1 billion in funding over five years for the ARC. The funding, part of the bipartisan infrastructure bill, roughly doubled the ARC's funding levels.

So how flaming obvious does the graft have to get for anything to be done about it?

The sheep 🐑🐑🐑 are too busy getting jabs, using the correct pronouns, watching CNN and MSNBC and worrying about Global Warming.

I don’t think the sheep even care about politics.

They seem to care about newest on Disney, Netflix, Amazon, etc. latest foodie fad, etc.

They are fast asleep.

The 7 deadly sins:

Lust
Gluttony
Greed
Sloth
Wrath
Envy
Pride

We are at the stage where every member of congress has gorged themselves of the treasury. The engage in all these deadly sins with gusto and malice.

The collapse can’t come soon enough. Americans deserve everything that’s coming to them. Good and hard.
