Left-wing protestors assembled on Monday to express their dissatisfaction with Sen. Joe Manchin’s (D-WV) opposition to the Democrats’ multi-trillion-dollar reconciliation package.Arriving in houseboats and kayaks of their own, representatives from Young West Virginia, Race Matters WV, Center for Popular Democracy Action, Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) and Greenpeace USA protested outside of Manchin’s houseboat in Washington, D.C.They held signs that read “Don’t sink West Virginia,” “Manchin pass the bill,” “BBB brings jobs to WV” — referring to Biden’s “Build Back Better” agenda — and “No climate no deal.”

Gee, do you think he could stay in a hotel while this circus performs? I heard there were several in the area.

I’m quite sure that these protesters are the same people who ridiculed the Trump boat parades.
WV is a red state and if Manchin wishes to keep his job he will listen to the folks back home.

“I want to make sure that children are getting taken care of, that people are basically having an opportunity to go back to work,” he continued. “We have 11 million jobs that we haven’t filled, 8 million people still unemployed. Something’s not matching up there.”
The man is TELLING them SOMETHING ISN'T ADDING UP (how can it in that boondoggle of a bill) - you would think they would at least listen.
I hate liberals & sjws - neither bother to read/listen/LEARN before shooting off their mouths!

This, folks, explains why West Virginia is such a screwed-up state. Beautiful but screwed-up. Worst percentage of opioid drug addiction in the nation, high suicide rates, high percentage of mental illness, high rates of addiction to just about anything, child abuse, crooked lawyers, corruption in small-town law enforcement. These "protesters" are the result of all of that.

I'd be surprised if most of those protestors were from WV. Soros probably paid those folks to do that. They could be from anywhere.

Does the FBI have infiltrators inside these groups? Why hasn't the military been called out? Are these measures only for right wing protestors?

Moar mendacity by the lying press; Notice that the photographs show 6 identical kayaks and 2 identical boats, a total of a dozen people, and the doting press describes it as a ''flotilla''. An inquisitive reporter actually doing his job might wonder why all 6 of the kayaks are brand new, of the same type/brand, both boats are identical [possibly rentals], and it is staged/photographed by Greenpeace. Yet, there was no mention in the article of the obvious astro-turf staged nature of people who are not even from Manchin's state.

Why would Manchin care about those who would never vote for him?

Joe Manchin has been in politics for a long time. How much did that "yacht" cost? I wonder if he knows.

The only jobs that Biden's B.B.B. plan will bring to WVA are positions for dismantling and decomissioning the coal mines, and a few more to process the increase in jobless benefit applications.

And why does seeing any pics of this require us to give clicks to evil Twitter? Screw them and their virtual monopoly on news pics and vids.

I have a very different idea of what a flotilla is. It means a fleet of ships or boats. A half dozen kayaks is a nuisance. Not a flotilla.
