Senator Joe Manchin has now changed course after months of opposition and has now signed on to the Democrat’s massive new spending bill.
As The Daily Wire reports:
Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) resurrected key pieces of President Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better” agenda in a surprising agreement with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on Wednesday.
The Democratic senators agreed to a spending package titled the “Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.” The bill proposes to increase taxes on billion-dollar companies, spend $369 billion on climate and energy programs, and extend health care subsidies for Affordable Care Act users for three more years, according to The Wall Street Journal.
In recent weeks, Manchin shot down Democrat attempts at pushing through Biden’s agenda, and reportedly told Democratic leaders he would “unequivocally” refuse to support legislation related to climate change and tax increases.
Now, the West Virginia senator claims reconciling with Democrats on this package will help the country fight inflation.
With Manchin now onboard Democrats will now only have to convince Senator Krysten Sinema to sign on to the deal in order for it to pass the Senate.
Block all democratic agenda items and regain our nation from these socialist…communist government officials…save our freedoms.
We need to contact Joe Manchin and ask him what changed and why. He’s getting pressure. Wish he’d just go Republican. Now he can watch America burn.
It’s called, “how much will it take for you to cave?” The bribe was in from the start, just took quite a while to get the figures to where munchman would agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I knew Manchin was too good to be true! The demonrat came out in him!
He was threatened
Joe Manchin you’re a traitor!!
What “moderate” Democrat? The moderates are Republicans who won’t vote for this spending, since excessive spending by Democrats without Republican participation during the pandemic is causing the current rampant inflation. What will more overspending due to the inflation rate? A reduction in bloated domestic spending is desperately needed, not more spending. Pouring gasoline on a fire is not the way to put it out.
Back stabbing continues by the democrats,
As usual.
Stick to your guns Krysten!
Blackmail, extortion to change votes??
Manchin has been promised “something” from The DNC? West Virginians have been hurting, this will add to their pain. Perhaps electing someone else in WVA is in order and Joe Manchin knows it!?
I suspect Joe Manchin has been bribed or threatened into agreeing to this bill that is going to ruin our economy beyond recovery. I am curious what it was that succeeded in this sudden and regrettable turn against his constituents and towards the destruction of our country.
Hang in there Krysten – you are about the ONLY hope the US has against the total collapse of this once-great country.
I have ALWAYS figured young Joe would cave to old Joe as he ALWAYS had in the past – what a mush!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
