Democrat Senator Joe Manchin has now made a stunning admission about the true nature of Joe Biden’s ‘Inflation Reduction Act.’

As Fox News reports:

Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., on Tuesday admitted that the Inflation Reduction Act won’t “immediately” temper inflation, telling reporters that the necessary investments needed to bring down prices would take some time.

Manchin’s comments came after President Biden signed the landmark climate change and health care bill into law on Tuesday, delivering what he has called the “final piece” of his pared-down domestic agenda. Though Democrats have labeled the measure the Inflation Reduction Act, nonpartisan analysts have said it will have a barely perceptible impact on prices.

Asked by Fox News reporter Hillary Vaughn whether it was misleading to call the bill the Inflation Reduction Act because it won’t make everyday goods less expensive, Manchin said, “Why would it?”

“Well, immediately it’s not,” Manchin said. “We’ve never [said] anything would happen immediately, like turn the switch on and off.”

Manchin went on to claim that the bill’s massive spending on ‘green energy’ would lead to the U.S. eventually becoming energy independent over a 10-year period.

  1. It is all BS by Manchin who is now worried that his Switch on Biden’s
    Bill to get it passed is going to have the same affect it had with Stupid
    Liz Cheney..It will be much worse to get burned by both his Party since
    he has been Vote switching from Democrat to Republican & then back to
    Democrat again to support Biden’s huge Inflation Bill that will just make
    things worse..People will not put up with him anymore….

  2. Hey, what the heck do you mean we would be energy independent in 10 yrs. It only took 1 day to take the independence we had away. Don’t make sense. We were already energy independent you idiot.

  3. Manchin got hoodooed by the Demorats and now WVA needs to replace him because this bill is going to destroy his state and the rest of AMERICA.

  4. Joe, did you even read the bill before voting for it? There’s nothing in it that will help Americans economically; not soon, not ever. It’s just another albatross around our necks. Thanks Joe, you sold us all out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KfKcZCoRxo

  5. Wow! Energy independent in 10 years! What a deal! We were already energy independent when Biden took office and he immediately took action to destroy it. I’m willing to consider that renewable sources may be able to supply much of our energy needs 10 years from now, but for the present day we need to be using the abundant stores of fossil fuels to support our lives. (Don’t worry about the “Climate” — it hasn’t changed much in the last several years, and humankind isn’t affecting it, anyway.)

  6. i really thought manchin was a true liberal and not a commie leftist. boy did he have everyone fooled. i hope his voters realize what he really is and vote him out

  7. Ahhh yes…the old sleight of hand…tell them it will (when it won’t) but the caveat being, “…well, not right away…(maybe when the next party gets in after they alter or negate the damned bill)…but, perhaps someday prices will come down…” Manchin, you’re a dog…no, you’re not even good enough to be a mutt (I’ve had some damned loyal mutts in my day…) and you don’t even approach them…perhaps snake would be a better description…slimy…yeah, that’s the ticket, a slimy snake…

  8. As if we didn’t already know all that.
    They got to him and he caved. At least he should be honest about that. But, a kraka always a kraka.

  9. It’s interesting that we were energy independent before Biden took office. Now it’s going to take 10 years. More lies from the left. Not shocked.

  10. “Well, immediately it’s not,” Manchin said. “We’ve never [said] anything would happen immediately, like turn the switch on and off.”
    they might not have said it straight out but it was certainly implied.

  11. Nothing the Democrats pass is actually to help the people it will put more in their bank accounts and more tax on the people who can not afford it look at 44 has a big house here and another in Mass and another in Hi and old Joe is plenty rich but the people they server ca not afford to drive or eat and Nancy with her high price Ice Cream but some people are dumb enough yo believe them as long as they let them keep killing babies

  12. Yes, It takes time to steal back the money from middle class Americans to straighten out the economy that the Jackasses created.(But don’t hold your breath while you wait)

  13. I’m glad Manchin backed this bill that is now law, because it is a big and great lie and it especially hurts the people of West Virginia, and when that law is finally instituted and it’s results become reality, it will hurt the citizens of West Virginia, a state which is over 75% Republican.

    Then the citizens of West Virginia will take out Manchin in his next election and replace him with a Republican who will do what is best for West Virginians, not sell them out to the Democrats agenda of destroying the coal industry, the biggest employer in West Virginia, as well as many other terrible policies and agendas that will hurt the West Virginians.

  14. Manchin is talking like a man with a paper head. What drug did they inject him with which would make him even remotely agree to this piece of garbage legislation. Strictly partisan and will increase taxes which arming the IRS. If that’s not scary enough, let’s consider it’s aim,vehicle is to eliminate small business, which is the backbone of America.

  15. WHAT A MORON MANCHIN IS. HE KNOWS DANG WELL THIS BILL WILL JACK UP INFLATION TO HEIGHTS NEVER SEEN BEFORE AND EVEN THOUGH HE FUC*ED OVER ALL THE CONSTITUENTS IN WEST VIRGINIA AND ESPECIALLY ALL THE COAL PEOPLE. OH HELL I BET THEY LOVE HIM NOW!!! GOOD LUCK JOE. ITS YOUR TURN NEXT TO GET YOUR BUTT KICKED WHEN YOU RUN FOR REELECTION. GUESS WHAT . ILL BET THERES A MAGA CANDIDATE JUST WAITING IN THE WINGS, ENDORSED BY THE PRESIDENT AND READY TO TAKE YOUR SEAT SO BETTER START GATHERING ALL YOUR CRAP UP AND GET READY FOR THAT #15 SIZE BOOT RIGHT UP YOUR A**HOLE.

  16. There must be A LOT of pork in that bill for Joe Manchin! He may be the smartest DemocRat, be he’s still a DemocRat!

  17. Manchin lost any believers that almost believed he was believable. In other words, he is a failure to us all for supporting a bill that he knows will be harmful to our country. Shame…

  18. Who caused the inflation? Well, look at all the handouts given since the plandemic.

    Free money causes inflation, it’s too late cause prices are up now. Probably never come down to the 2019 level. Cut the money supply NOW, raise interest rates NOW. Not a little but 10% – 15%. The only way to get this under control.

  19. The Inflation Reduction is just in step into bring down the economy. Congress must continue to take other steps.

  20. Manchin if climate is so important. How come Obama bought a mansion on a island if what every one saying it will be under water in 6 years and why did he have 3 fuel tanks put under ground that holds about 2,500 gallons of heating oil

  21. Bill Gates had either funded or did a ‘quid pro quo’ to vote to approve this US economy destroyer bill!

  22. How will this magic wand, inflation expansion bill create energy independence in 10 years? Just curious about the “secret science” only Manchin knows.

  23. The only way we are going to recover is to put the policies that Pres Trump put in place, ESPECIALLY THE XL PIPELINE AND DRILLING PERMITS ALONG WITH FRACKING. Hate will destroy this country. Even the ILLEGALS are going back to Mexico because their economy and lifestyle and the economy is much better than here. Thanks, Bidon and Democrats !!!

  24. Manchin you are disgusting. We WERE ENERGY INDEPENDENT while Trump was President and it didn’t take TEN YEARS for him to accomplish this. Everything you and your party tries to accomplish only leads to more distruction to this nation. You are a liar and cannot be trusted for anything you say now and forever.

  25. With Manchin’s latest comments it couldn’t be more clear…he’s a dope smoking pot head that doesn’t understand rational thinking and that he became another of Chuck Schumer’s useful idiots”

  26. Why would anyone think this would help curb inflation? Because it’s called the “Inflation Reduction Act”??? Scam! Should be called the dem payoff to their pals act. China selling solar panels are the going to make the most money and air won’t be any cleaner in ten years than it is now. US already about as clean as you can get but soon an all elec power system will still use fossil fuels to make the elec and since there will be elec shortages you will be sitting in the cold/hot and in the dark with no internet or phone will drive the idiots who believe this crazy!!!

  27. Manchin should be groveling for our forgiveness. He teased but knew all the time he was going to sign. It’s his modus operandi . Did any of the democrats read the bill? Probably not, they don’t have to actually earn a living, so why care what they force on the rest of us. Once in the political club, and on the perpetual gravy train, they never have to worry.

  28. The sad thing is that, even if those Congressmen and Senators had just a basic understanding of Economics, they would still vote for the same irrational crap. Political Correctness, the culture of Fools and Cowards.

  29. Part of this bill builds a huge battery factory in West Virginia
    A liberal in the Dr waiting room was talking to me about EV’s. I asked where did she think the water was going to come from to produce these batteries. Her answer: these batteries don’t need water.
    I told her the batteries need lithium, Google how much water is needed to produce one ton
    It takes 60,000 tons for 1 million batteries. I got called but noticed the look on her face as her search answer came up. Liberals LOL
