Previously, Pelosi had asserted that she would not advance the infrastructure deal until reconciliation passed the Senate.
"Let Nancy Pelosi figure it out" is not the worst strategy Republicans could deploy as the minority in Congress.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi's plan to link the Senate's $550 billion bipartisan infrastructure plan to a $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation package is starting to backfire, as moderate Democrats warn they may not vote for a budget resolution needed to begin the reconciliation process unless it's paired with a vote on the Senate bill.
All Pelosi had to do was get behind the bipartisan deal from the beginning, telling the socialist wing to enjoy their seats on the backbench.
Republicans are dancing on the head of a pin, hoping to woo Manchin and Sinema to their side over reconciliation while Pelosi may have needlessly cut her own legs out from under her in the process.
Does Pelosi stick to her word and say no to the infrastructure deal?
What I do know is that Pelosi screwed up here by allying herself with the far left early on over this issue.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
