'We have deal': Biden, bipartisan senators on infrastructure

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden announced on Thursday that “we have a deal,” signaling a bipartisan agreement on a $953 billion infrastructure plan that would achieve his top legislative priority and validate his efforts to reach across the political aisle.

Biden made a surprise appearance in front of the cameras with members of the group of senators, Republicans and Democrats, after an agreement was reached Thursday. Details of the deal were scarce to start, but the pared-down plan, with $559 billion in new spending, has rare bipartisan backing and could open the door to the president’s more sweeping $4 trillion proposals later on.

The president said not everyone got what they wanted and that other White House priorities would be done separately in a congressional budget process known as reconciliation

“We’ve struck a deal,” Biden then tweeted. “A group of senators – five Democrats and five Republicans – has come together and forged an infrastructure agreement that will create millions of American jobs.”

The senators have struggled over how to pay for the new spending but left for the White House with a sense of confidence that funding issues had been addressed.

Biden’s top aides had met with senators for back-to-back meetings on Capitol Hill and later huddled with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.

The agreement comes with a complex legislative push. Pelosi on Thursday welcomed the bipartisan package, but she warned that it must be paired with the president’s bigger goals now being prepared by Congress under a separate so-called the budget reconciliation process.

“This is important,” Pelosi said. “There ain't going to be a bipartisan bill without a reconciliation bill,”

The Democratic leader vowed the House would not vote on it until the Senate had dealt with both packages.

The major hurdle for a bipartisan agreement has been financing. Biden demanded no new taxes on anyone making less than $400,000, while Republican lawmakers were unwilling to raise taxes beyond such steps as indexing the gasoline tax to inflation. But senators departed for the White House Thursday with a sense of confidence that funding issues had been addressed.

“We’re still refining the details, but from my perspective, it is paid for," said Maine Sen. Susan Collins, a Republican and one of 10 lawmakers who met with Biden for roughly 30 minutes.

Republican Bill Cassidy of Louisiana said he was confident the agreement had Biden's backing.

“We wouldn’t be going there if he wasn’t supportive of the deal,” said Cassidy, adding that the president ”wants to make it flourish.

One member of the bipartisan group, Republican Rob Portman of Ohio, met privately ahead of the White House meeting with Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell at the Capitol and said afterward that the Kentucky senator “remains open-minded and he’s listening still.”

Biden has sought $1.7 trillion in his American Jobs Plan, part of nearly $4 trillion in broad infrastructure spending on roads, bridges and broadband internet but also including the so-called care economy of child care centers, hospitals and elder care.

With Republicans opposed to Biden’s proposed corporate tax rate increase, from 21% to 28%, the group has looked at other ways to raise revenue. Biden rejected their idea to allow gas taxes paid at the pump to rise with inflation, viewing it as a financial burden on American drivers.

The broad reconciliation bill would likely include tax increases on the wealthy and corporations, so a tension still exists over funding for some Republicans and business groups. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce came out Thursday applauding the bipartisan infrastructure agreement, but Neil Bradley, its executive vice president, warned that “some in Congress are trying to torpedo the deal” unless they get trillions in additional spending.

“These are the kind of tactics that have created the mess we are in today, and they must be rejected,” Bradley said.

According to a White House readout of the Wednesday meeting with Schumer and Pelosi, the leaders talked with acting Budget Director Shalanda Young, National Economic Council Director Brian Deese and Domestic Policy Council Director Susan Rice, and they discussed the two-track approach — the smaller bipartisan deal now emerging and the more sweeping plan of Democratic priorities.

Schumer said the leaders “support the concepts” they have heard from the bipartisan negotiations.

The Democratic leaders also insisted on the two-part process ahead, starting with initial votes in July to consider the bipartisan deal and to launch the lengthy procedure for the Democrats' proposal, now drafted at nearly $6 trillion.

The Democrats' bigger proposal would run through the budget reconciliation process, which would allow passage of Biden's priorities by majority vote, without the need for support from Republicans to overcome the Senate's 60-vote threshold. It would require multiple rounds of voting that are likely to extend into fall.

Like Pelosi, Schumer said, “One can’t be done without the other.”

That's a signal to both parties of the road ahead. Liberal Democrats have been wary of the bipartisan effort because they see it as insufficient and worry it will take the place of Biden's bigger plan. Republicans are also skeptical of passing a bipartisan bill only to be faced with an even bigger Democratic plan.

You on the ridiculous, vengeful Right are just horrified that we now have a DECENT President who has both real principles and political know how."



We are?
He was rolled , by Putin.
He lost the S1 Federalize all voting .
He got taken to the wood shed over true infrastructure once the Republicans taught him what it is.

James, we know that Pet Rock Biden has released 60 k or more Federal Felons.
We know that they will offend again.
Tell us the "decency" in a man that purposely causes the victimization of those 30 k victims.

PALM BEACH, FL—Having proved beyond a shadow of doubt that he is the rightful President, Donald Trump has declared that he will at last do what so many pundits and politicians have called for - move on from the terrible, rigged, sad 2020 election. Today, he announced that from now on he will be laser-focused on proving that he won the even more obviously rigged elections of 1860, 1972, and 2008.

"No way, and I mean no way I ever could lose to a guy like Racist Abe," said Mr. Trump from his balcony. "Last year I said I had done more for black people than anyone with the possible exception of Abe - and now look, they are taking his statues down, taking his name off of schools, all because he is such a terrible racist! He was my only competition for the black vote, and the great people of America have spoken and I won. Which means I won the Civil War, which is terrific, one of my best achievements, probably top 50."

Trump also proudly declared he had won the 1972 election, defeating "Spyin' Dick" Nixon in an incredible landslide, the biggest electoral college margin of victory ever, maybe. "Spyin' Dick was such a loser. The Watergate hotel, have you seen it? It's ugly, it's awful, I tried to have it torn down just to do the country a favor. And he lost Vietnam, which is so sad for the Vietnamese people, who I love very much. I love spring rolls. The fake news about him resigning, it's all a cover up because everyone knew I really won the election. Sad!"

Sources say that while upset about 1860 and 1972, foremost in Trump's mind is proving he is the rightful victor of the 2008 election over Cheatin' Barack. "Obama couldn't get elected president of the Lions Club, and everyone knows about his birth certificate, have you seen it? Worst photoshop I ever saw, believe me. A disgrace to photoshop. The phony election - some states would not even put me on the ballot, because they didn't want to embarrass poor Barack, but I still won anyways, which is so incredible. The evidence is all there and it is coming out FAST and FURIOUS now - which by the way, I love Vin Diesel, terrific guy, but it's so sad what they've done to the franchise. Not good, bowing to China - nothing like your favorite four-time president!"

Is COVID a Bioweapon?

Is COVID-19 a bioweapon? Is it a biological weapon deliberately released by the Chinese government and the Chinese Communist Party in order to achieve its global objectives? The debate hasn't really gone there. But I think it needs to. Why not?

If the virus leaked out of the Wuhan lab, there are two ways that could happen. The first one, of course, is an accidental leak; oops, the virus got out. But the other is they wanted the virus to get out. And that cannot be written off without looking into it. That's what I'm calling for.

And of course Doctor Fauci paid for the covid-19 pandemic so he could make billions making the vaccine during operation speed.

The diversity of this “bipartisan coalition” pretty perfectly conveys which communities get centered and which get left behind when leaders prioritize bipartisan dealmaking over inclusive lawmaking (which prioritizes delivering the most impact possible for the most people"

A Republican-appointed judge just smacked down GOP deniers on January 6
Analysis by Chris Cillizza, CNN Editor-at-large
Jun 24, 2021
(CNN) - The violent insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6 was a dark day in American history. The attempted rewriting of what actually happened that day -- when more than 100 police officers were injured and five people died -- by former President Donald Trump and his Republican allies is even more noxious.
On Wednesday, a federal judge named Royce Lamberth had had enough. Lamberth used the first sentencing hearing for a defendant charged in the attack on the Capitol to blast Republicans trying to cast January 6 as anything other than a violent riot aimed at stopping the wheels of democracy from turning.


"I'm especially troubled by the accounts of some members of Congress that January 6 was just a day of tourists walking through the Capitol," Lamberth said. "I don't know what planet they were on. ... This was not a peaceful demonstration. It was not an accident that it turned violent; it was intended to halt the very functioning of our government."


Lamberth, who was appointed to his judgeship by the late Republican president Ronald Reagan, added that newly released videos from inside the riot that day "will show the attempt of some congressman to rewrite history that these were tourists walking through the capitol is utter nonsense."

The likes of Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson and Georgia Rep. Andrew Clyde have actively attempted to suggest that the media coverage of January 6 has painted an inaccurate picture of what happened that day.

"This didn't seem like an armed insurrection to me," Johnson said in February. Clyde said in May that the insurrection looked like a "normal tourist visit" to him.



Even House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy has gotten in on the whitewashing of that day -- and Trump's role (or lack thereof) in it.


Here's McCarthy describing what happened on January during an interview with Fox News Channel in late April:
"What I talked to President Trump about, I was the first person to contact him when the riots was going on. He didn't see it. What he ended the call was saying -- telling me, he'll put something out to make sure to stop this. And that's what he did, he put a video out later."
Which is, uh, not exactly what happened. Here's what did happen, via reporting in February from CNN's Jamie Gangel, Kevin Liptak, Michael Warren and Marshall Cohen:
"Speaking to the President from inside the besieged Capitol, McCarthy pressed Trump to call off his supporters and engaged in a heated disagreement about who comprised the crowd. Trump's comment about the would-be insurrectionists caring more about the election results than McCarthy did was first mentioned by Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, a Republican from Washington state, in a town hall earlier this week, and was confirmed to CNN by Herrera Beutler and other Republicans briefed on the conversation."

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

Lamberth made clear this week that he wouldn't stand for that junk -- blasting as "conspiracy theories" the idea that the FBI was somehow involved in the riot. (He also had a warning for those future defendants in the cases being brought by the Justice Department for the violence on January 6; "Some of my defendants in some of these other cases think there's no consequence to this, and there is a consequence," he said. "I don't want to create the impression that probation is the automatic outcome here, because it's not going to be.")
Lamberth's frank talk is a reminder -- or at least should serve as one -- that there isn't a factual debate about what happened at the US Capitol on January 6.
A group of people, egged on by Trump and his loyalist allies, attempted to block the certification of the Electoral College vote. They did so because they had been fed a lie -- by Trump and other GOP leaders as well as conservative media -- that there was some sort of valid claim that the 2020 election had been fraudulent. They overwhelmed the US Capitol Police, often using violent means, and marauded through the home of the US Congress.
These are FACTS. They are NOT in dispute. We need to keep saying that because truth matters.
