Pelosi could possibly pass the infrastructure bill with help of the GOP

Boy wouldn't that just piss off the progressives? 


Pelosi demanded for the upteenth time today that a vote was coming on the bipartisan infrastructure bill that has already passed the Senate. From the looks of things, she has lost the support of the progressives (at least in terms of passing the bill today). But it also sounds like there are somewhere between 6-12 Republicans in the House that would be willing to vote for the bill.

That would then pass the bipartisan bill that upsets very few and would leave little or no leverage for the progressives as it pertains to the larger reconciliation spending fiasco. The question is whether or not Pelosi woud have the nerve to undercut the progressives for the sake of getting a so called "win".

THE WALL STREET JOURNAL DEFENDS RUNNING TRUMP'S LETTER TO THE EDITOR:

The Wall Street Journal defends running a letter to the editor from Donald Trump arguing that the 2020 election in Pennsylvania was stolen:


“We trust our readers to make up their own minds about his statement. And we think it’s news when an ex-President who may run in 2024 wrote what he did, even if (or perhaps especially if) his claims are bananas.”

HO HO HO HA HA HO HAH HAAAAH HO HOOO HA HOOBIE DOOBIE DOO!

THE HILL REPORTS:

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) signaled that he could support the $1.75 trillion price tag for Democrats’ social spending plan, even as he hasn’t said if he supports the overall framework deal.

THE HILL REPORTS:
Democrats Abandon Infrastructure Vote Again

“House Democratic leaders on Thursday abandoned a second attempt to clear the Senate-passed bipartisan infrastructure bill as progressives held firm to their refusal to back it without a concrete agreement on a separate social spending package.

“It’s the second time House Democratic leadership has punted the bill and it came after President Biden made a rare visit to the Capitol to beseech House Democrats to help him advance his agenda.”

The Real Coldheartedtruth said...

Senators have left for the weekend, and the House is going to vote on short-term transportation extension tonight, indicating that they will not vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill. These negotiations will grind on into next week. 

TPM

As far as getting Republicans to vote for the "pure" infrastructure bill in the House it may happen, but I think there will be more needed than 6-12, more like 15-20 imo.

And the progressives will scream bloody murder

just like when Trump won the election

without any trump/russia collusion

Someone needs to tell McAuliffe that he's running against Youngkin. Not Trump. Trump hasn't even been to VA in months.

btw notice any difference between the Headline by Goddard and what his his source actually wrote ?

or are you just a swallower ?

and I see why you don't provide links.

imagine what else he is leaving off or putting out of context with his source.

but that helps the FAKE NEWS narratives even more

In fact you even went one step further

No they didn't say that, Goddard did

FAKE NEWS by the fake "pastor"

C.H. Truth said...

Manchin was specifically asked if he would support 1.75 trillion. His response was not yes or no. He stated that the 1.75 trillion dollar figure was what had been negotiated.

He didn't state that he was necessarily part of that negotiation. Just that that was the number that was negotiated.

Perhaps he means that he would accept 1.75 trillion or perhaps not.


But if Manchin was clearly on board with 1.75 trillion is there any reason on earthy why he would not just say "yeah, I can live with 1.75 trillion"? Why would someone who is "on board" with the number be so cryptic about it?


We all can come up with some signal that points to something here or there. But Manchin is on board with the Reconciliation bill when Manchin says he is no board with it. He has nothing to gain by being on board and pretending he isn't or visa versa.
