With everything going on in Virginia between Terry McAuliffe and Glenn Youngkin, the battle over Joe Biden’s agenda had taken a backseat in the news, but that may have changed in a big way today.
Late last week, a vote to push through the bipartisan infrastructure bill was scuttled after progressives refused to vote for it without more than a framework on the “Build Back Better” boondoggle. That was the second time in a month Nancy Pelosi had to pull the plug at the last minute. Yet, by Saturday, Democrats were projecting confidence again. Word was that both bills would be voted on as soon as Tuesday.

I believe Manchin hates Bernie Sanders controlling dem & the insults to him & WV.
I believe Manchin is killing this by a 1000 cuts to make Bernie suffer in watching it die.
Plus the more they harass him the more he wants to knife them.
So lets give him that benefit & watch as I'm sure many of you will be happy to be wrong😃

Manchin should hire a food taster, hire bodyguards, and avoid Fort Marcy Park.
Now let's see how long it takes takes for the little weasel Attorney General and the FBI to come up with fake charges against the Senator.

The recent polls and the Lets Go Brandon chants along with FJB are starting to give some Democrats the willies. Most, however, are determined to ruin the country even at the cost of their careers. Democrat Communist cadre are relentless in their aim to Sovietize America.

I find myself in agreement with #2. I think wherever Manchin started in this whole process, I think the months of relentless insults by the far left commie Squat members have finally pushed him too far. I imagine that he expected more loyalty from a fellow senator in Xiden, and when Lunch Bucket decided to whore himself out to the likes of AOC and her ilk, it didn't set well.
Could still be wrong, but I think that they have pushed Manchin over the edge on this crap, and he is done with them. He will never leave the Dems, but he doesn't have to cooperate with the commies either, when his vote is worth one hell of a lot more in the Senate than a vote from the Squat in the House.
I also think he sees Pelosi as an idiot for not stomping down AOC and her crew early on.

Frankly, I hope Manchin does. That reconciliation bill is nothing more than a horrow show meant to transfer wealth to the indingents from the taxpayers. It also makes the demonrats richer for putting all their money into green energy stocks.

I see that Lucy is teeing up the football for Charlie Brown again. And he will go for it with gusto with the same result.
I cannot believe Joe Manchin has the goods required to buck his party. If he does, he will be a hero. However, I believe he would rather be a rich “influential” senator than a real man of integrity. He knows the way Washington works. You cross the party and you are toast.

Could it be that Manchin is an actual 'Honest Man' in the Senate? You've GOT to know that if he was involved on ONE shady financial deal, ONE sexual accusation or even a hint of anything racial, the Rats and the so-called 'media' would be hanging that over his head like a sledge hammer to force him to vote for this anti-American garbage. Is this possible?

There are always blackmailed/controlled RINOs available if need be. I am skeptical about all this theater. Whatever bill eventually passes will not be good for Americans. We need a miracle.

I think Sen. Manchin's hope is to kill the BBB bill and pass the infrastructure bill that the Senate has already passed. But will the progressive lunatics now led by Jayapal go along with that hope? My guess is that they will not, and that will be the end of their disproportionate influence in the Democrat party and thus condemn it to irrelevance for a generation.

Yes, Manchin has had his fill of the dim party. But, can we expect a party switch? No. Or can we expect Manchin to become an independent like Lieberman used to be? Possibly. After this whole thing blows over and the dims retreat from this matter, Manchin should retain security if he hasn't already and start checking the underside of his car before he goes anywhere. Gramps and the dims will have a score to settle.

Manchin is the most powerful person in America right now. He is rich and doesn't need the Democrat party for favors or even to get reelected in conservative West Virginia. Will he stand firm? I don't know. But right now, he is saving the country.

Manchin has a track record of “Lucy with the football” with Republicans playing the role of Charlie Brown. As DJT would say, ‘We’ll see what happens”. Let’s hope we’re pleasantly surprised.

Seeing will be believing in the case of Manchin and Sinema.
Word is that he has been whittling the BSBetter plan, but we have seen how the media and political pressure work with all its dirty tricks, and Manchin seems to like all the attention he is getting.
He may yet sell out-- JoeBamaBiteMe got his wife a $160,000 job in government trying to woo him...........

I hope this is true. When a vote is demanded on a huge bill that nobody has been given a chance to read, you know that is not fit to be passed. If anything, Joe Manchin has under estimated the true cost of the bill. I would guess five times the $1.75 trillion the Progressive claim would be more accurate.

Of all 535 of those "public servants" less than five percent of them have the integrity and proper motivation to occupy those seats. I'm still hoping that Manchin is one of them but history and the odds are not in our favor. A guy who is wealthy and independent has more material value to lose than a guy who has his honor and integrity and a meager bank account. It all depends where his values lie and only Manchin knows that. The democrats will try their best to bring him down. Pelosi, Schumer and Poopy Joe have no such reins on their conduct and will eagerly get down in the dirt to get their filthy, bloody hands on that money.

Conservatives/Republicans sit here wringing our hands and praying that a couple of nervous senators from Arizona and West Virginia care more about preserving their jobs than pleasing Democratic Party leadership. It's a disgrace we're in this predicament, and we never should have gotten to this point. The Republican Party blew it with the special elections in Georgia in January. Dems never should have gotten to 50 senators.
