JOE MACHIN Social media on the Joe Manchin Fox News rant Original article: Burgess COMMENTARY Peter Burgess | |||||||||
Morning Joe @Morning_Joe 'I think what Sen. Manchin did yesterday represents such an egregious breach of trust of the president.' -- @aoc 9:02 AM · Dec 20, 2021·Wildmoka 652 Retweets 87 Quote Tweets 4,773 Likes SLV @Scooter_lib_ee · 7h Replying to @Morning_Joe and @AOC If he genuinely had issues with BBB, Mr Manchin could have disclosed those issue through appropriate channels. Having a aid contact a White House aid to disclose it prior to appearing on Fox was a well calculated move. West Virginia your getting what you pay for. Joy @oscarrs155 · 7h Replying to @Morning_Joe and @AOC Maybe WV shouldn't get any infrastructure money? Bob. @TransitXCorp @Shrop12345 · 7h West Virginians are realizing the basic things in this bill isn’t wasteful, but essential- I don’t know how you go home and say this bill is bad for West Virginia’s in which clearly could have benefited Show more replies More Tweets Eugene Robinson @Eugene_Robinson · 21h Be mad at Manchin, who didn't bargain 'in good faith' as he claimed. Acknowledge that progressives were right about what would happen if infrastructure passed first. But save hottest ire for 50 GOP senators who'd rather deny Biden a win than help families and save the planet. Jon Ossoff @ossoff · 6h Alisha and I are overjoyed and totally in love with Eva Beth Ossoff, our first child, who arrived Friday evening. Alisha and Baby Eva are both doing well. We appreciate everyone’s well wishes! Two hearts Jack Cocchiarella @JDCocchiarella · Dec 19 There 20 Republican Senate seats are up in 2022. Let’s expand our majority so we never have to hear Joe Manchin's name again. Show this thread Henry Winkler @hwinkler4real · 22h The Lincoln project should make a commercial letting West Virginia see what they WOULD have gotten From Build Back Better BUT their JOE said no Don Winslow @donwinslow · 22h Fake Democrat Joe Manchin going on Fox News six days before Christmas to declare he is not supporting BBB is the ultimate F U to the entire Democratic party and their voters. And if you see it differently, you're not living on the same planet. David Axelrod @davidaxelrod · 5h I’d love to see @SenSchumer put each, individual piece of the BBB bill on the floor for a vote. Let senators explain why they oppose universal pre-K; paid family leave; child tax credit; home health care for the elderly and the other popular elements of the bill. Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom · 22h I love America. I believe in democracy. Therefore, I oppose Donald Trump with every bone in my body. Walter Shaub @waltshaub · 19h Imagine finding yourself on this Earth with as much leverage as Joe Manchin has and using it stop a society from helping its most vulnerable members. What did you even come here for, Joe? NY AG James @NewYorkStateAG · 5h The Trump Organization has continually sought to delay our investigation into its business dealings, and this lawsuit is yet another attack. Mr. Trump doesn’t get to dictate this investigation. We will continue undeterred because no one is above the law. Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar · 22h If you want to hold your elected officials accountable, you need the freedom to vote. That’s why it’s called the Freedom to Vote Act, because voting is foundational to everything we do as a nation. Steven Beschloss @StevenBeschloss · 8h Last time I checked, I didn’t vote for Joe Manchin for president. Show this thread Aaron Parnas @AaronParnas · 19h One silver lining tonight. The January 6th Committee had Marjorie Taylor Greene’s phone records, and she is not happy about it. Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson · 19h Hmmmmm…. Quote Tweet Henry Winkler @hwinkler4real · 22h The Lincoln project should make a commercial letting West Virginia see what they WOULD have gotten From Build Back Better BUT their JOE said no Lorenzo The Cat @LorenzoTheCat · 22h As she lay dying, this woman's last wish was to see her beloved cat Oliver. Her grandson brought the cat to the hospital and the nurses allowed the visit. The woman died shortly afterwards. Red heart Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT · 23h Ok, so BBB can’t get 50 votes. There’s still a lot of life changing stuff in BBB that CAN get 50 votes. Not a great day. But take a deep breath, everyone. Jamaal Bowman @JamaalBowmanNY · 22h If Joe Manchin wants to say he’s a “no” on the child tax credit, affordable housing, & protecting our climate, then let him vote no on the Senate floor--not on Fox News. Enough is enough. Judd Legum @JuddLegum · 21h Just a reminder that the House (363-70) and the Senate (88-11) just overwhelmingly passed bill with $768 BILLION in defense spending for ONE YEAR and no one made a peep about how to pay for it or if it was inflationary or its cost over 10 years Brian Tyler Cohen @briantylercohen · 18h NEW: Citing Joe Manchin’s apparent “no” vote on Build Back Better, Goldman Sachs has downgraded its GDP forecast for the first quarter from 3% to 2%; second quarter trimmed from 3.5% to 3%; third quarter from 3% to 2.75%. All thanks to Joe Manchin. Show this thread Josh Wingrove @josh_wingrove · 19h (Bloomberg) -- Goldman Sachs Group Inc. lowered its forecast for U.S. economic growth after Senator Joe Manchin said Sunday he won’t support the $2 trillion tax-and-spending plan that’s the heart of President Joe Biden’s economic agenda. Show this thread Marc E. Elias @marceelias · 22h Some Republicans are starting to float the idea of fixing the Electoral Count Act instead of enacting Freedom to Vote/John Lewis Voting Rights. Don't fall for it. The ECA needs fixing but we need comprehensive voting rights legislation to protect democracy. Rep. Barbara Lee @RepBarbaraLee · 6h Where was Sen. Manchin’s concern about “staggering debt” when he voted for a $768 billion defense bill last week? Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1 · 9h Sen. Bernie Sanders: 'If Sen. Joe Manchin wants to vote against the Build Back Better Act, he should have the opportunity to do so with a floor vote ... He should have to explain to West Virginians and the American people why he doesn't have the courage to stand up.' Tristan Snell @TristanSnell · 23h Since Susan Collins is now going to be responsible for women losing the right to choose, will she at least vote for maternity leave and child care and the child tax credit? She deserves to have 100% as much scrutiny on Build Back Better as Joe Manchin has gotten — if not more. Kaitlan Collins @kaitlancollins · 20h President Biden personally signed off on the blistering statement issued by Jen Psaki, and had his staff add that if Sen. Manchin stood by his comments today, he had violated his word to the President. cnn.com How months of talks between Biden and Manchin over Build Back Better broke down President Joe Biden was at home in Delaware Sunday when Sen. Joe Manchin appeared on Fox News to abruptly declare he could not support his sweeping social and climate plan. 'I've tried everything... |
