Joe Manchin gets $500,000 a year from one of the dirtiest coal plants in West Virginia, and he’s demanding that Democrats gut their climate agenda. One corrupt politician is holding back the world.
Breaking News: The heart of President Biden's climate agenda — a push to replace coal- and gas-fired power plants — is said to likely be cut from the budget bill because Senator Joe Manchin opposes it. nyti.ms/3aHKAv7

Is there an official statement coming from Senator Manchin on the specifics of what he opposes? Shouldn't we expect that? Please be precise @Sen_JoeManchin - what pieces are you opposing and why?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Not one. There are more and the majority of the workers in West Virginia are oil, natural gas and coal workers. Your idea of climate change would decimate the entire state worse than what it is.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Quite true, and precisely what do you suggest we actually do about that? 2 senators from every state creates a bit of a problem. What is your solution? He clearly could not care less about the insults that are being hurled at him. He's a scumbag. What do we do?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Ugh, can we start a gofundme to try and buy him back. I‘d pitch in $20
Replying to @marwilliamson
Oh, you call everyone who doesn’t submit to your Marxist agenda corrupt.

No, he’s defending the interests of his voters you moron.

Last time I checked, there were 50 Republican Senators also rejecting the concept of the $3.5+ tril giveaway bill. ...and if you honestly think that any of the other 99 Senators are not corrupt, here's your sign.

It’s a drop in the bucket compared to China

Marianne. This is important information. How do we get him to stop this crazy stalling? Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema. I wrote to both of them this week, but instead of just talking about it, how do you suggest we can come together to take action.
