Read into it what you will, but Senator Joe Manchin, a Democrat, chose to sit with Republicans during Joe Biden's State of the Union address Tuesday night.
Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin opted to sit with Republican members during Tuesday's State of the Union rather than his Democratic colleagues.
As Biden gave his address, Manchin remained seated and refrained from clapping as others applauded the president for lauding items within his Build Back Better bill, including the expanded Child Tax Credit that expired in December, which Manchin opposed.
During parts of the address, Manchin was spotted leaning over to speak to Romney on several occasions.
Later on, Manchin was seen on the phone and did not stand as people applauded Biden's Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson.
Does this mean Manchin is becoming a Republican? No. He is still a Democrat even if his moderate views are more aligned with Democrats of a past era.
Manchin is a master at drawing just the right kind of attention.
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.
