Why is Sen. Joe Manchin, who has made millions from a family coal business, able to chair an energy committee in the Senate that’s working to combat climate change? @mehdirhasan asked Sen. Ed Markey just that.

It looks like the liberal media is in an all-out blitz to smear Joe Manchin. Or are you asking questions about the potential conflicts of interest of all 534 members of Congress?
Why did Joe Biden get 5 million dollar from China
It’s not right. They don’t want to say it. Keep asking that question. The American People want Manchin off chairing that committee. He’s not an honest broker. I think He feels the ground shaking under His feet. He’s being exposed like never before. And His corrupt self should be.
@ewarren , your colleague from Massachusetts couldn’t answer. Will you?
Replying to @MehdiHasanShow
Please ask Chuck Schumer why he allows Manchin to chair the energy committee. Doesn't Schumer have the power to re-assign Manchin to another committee where his presence would be more benign?

Joe Manchin is no Democrat! He's proven that his bank account & staying on the right side of the fossil fuel industry brings him $$ from Big Donors. If he voted for anything "green" he loses $$ from his coal business and his big fossil fuel donors.
Why GOP is able to chair America while America is working to combat climate change?
Because @SenSchumer is a FCKEN FECKLESS WEAK “leader” what a colossal failure he is yet he gets a pass for losing the senate repeatedly & not being able to even keep his own team together. Step DOWN. Let someone with a spine do this job. @SenWhitehouse @amyklobuchar
