Or at least it’s a bland White House email that Joe Manchin’s friends are blaming for the possible end of the Build Back Better Act.
that Manchin asked, in advance, not to be solely named in the statement and then snapped at White House staff when he was.
“They figured surely to god we can move one person,” Manchin said. “Surely we can badger and beat one person up. Surely we can get enough protesters to make that person uncomfortable enough they’ll just say, ‘OK, I’ll vote for anything,’ just quit. But guess what, I’m from West Virginia. I’m not from where they’re from where they can just beat the crap out of people and think they’ll be submissive. Period.
Jayapal said she is done trying to work with Manchin and urged the White House to use executive actions to implement as much of the Build Back Better plan as it can without going through Congress. “I am not going to negotiate with Joe Manchin on something that I’m not even sure he wants to do. What’s the point of that?”
