Details of How Joe Manchin Was Bought off Reveal the World's Biggest Sucker

Joe Manchin broke his word to not support an inflation-inducing, tax-raising reconciliation bill

  • Instead of rewarding those who had supported him and acted in good faith, Manchin decided it was best to cave to the leftwing hysterics who harassed him in public and accused him of being a criminal
  • What exactly did he get out of the deal?
  • Some vague promises centering on an LNG pipeline through West Virginia
  • He burned his credibility to the ground in order to please people who hate him, and all he's getting are empty, unenforceable promises
    1. The president and the bureaucracy will still retain control of the process despite the generic requirement for a balanced list. And given one of the qualifications for that list is decarbonization potential, take a wild guess at what will be prioritized.
    2. After a year of standing firm, the West Virginia senator bent the knee to the radicals in his party, signing off on nearly $400 billion in climate change spending coupled with a corporate tax hike that will be passed directly to consumers.
    3. Require the relevant agencies to take all necessary actions to permit the construction and operation of the Mountain Valley Pipeline, the document reads.
    4. Absolutely nothing in the first section, which is titled designate and prioritize projects of strategic national importance, amounts to anything more than a suggestion to the executive branch.
    5. And who holds that position currently? That would be Jennifer Granholm, a radical leftist who has continually suggested that Americans should suffer in order to transition to green energy.
