Pelosi Says House Won’t Consider Bipartisan Infrastructure Plan without Reconciliation Proposal

[Thread]

You didn't bat an eye when five defense contractors got trillions to fight failed wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. You certainly didn't call it a boondoggle or "pork for everyone."

Don't fret, Winester, that mother er squattin' in the White House will get around to gutting the military and that right soon, son.

...hard to argue when the top soldier was planning to shoot President Trump to death on spec.

ADDENDUM:::But it kinda a makes sense, El,,,Madonna threatened to blow President Trump up on day 1 and nobody acted like that was against the law, so, it's no surprise that General Milley then felt it was okay for him to attempt the assassination of President Trump.

...only to the extent that it feathers President Trump's cap due to the reality that the assassination attempt(s) by both Madonna & Milley were unsuccessful...

Trump President.
Not Clinton.

Running up the tab by handing out goodies to rich folks and defense contractors then refusing to pay for it when the the other party has power is by now Republican orthodoxy

(They're) mad, well, more like enraged at him and thus have taken off the gloves. Where were (they) the last 20 years?

tee, hee.

the problem is sinema/manchin wont face any pressure or leverage. they are vocally against the big reconciliation bill and they have no shame in owning that they're tanking it. whatever happens to the infra bill, they seem perfectly proud to tank the 3.5 trillion reconciliation bill. theres no additional pressure

meanwhile they can proudly say they voted for the infra bill and its the progressives getting in the way. just makes the dems look incompetent like the republicans with obamacare and mccain thumbs down

They're already actively threatening to (primary) Sinema as we speak, 21. They don't want to get too overwrought with Manchin, but they've even thrown it is his face about 20 year investments he's got.

Make no mistake the gloves are off. (They) do not want to see Biden get shamed like this in broad daylight, AND most importantly in front of President Trump. (They) want to do that exact same thing to President Trump. Have Biden get the 3.5 trillion then shuffle to a podium and utter "Trump" in some way, shape, or, form, before shuffling back out for an Ovaltine.

they absolutely should primary sinema

but in the meantime have to deal with the reality of the current situation. not a fantasy world where sinema/manchin are going to pull a 180 and support a bill they've publicly said they wont

Manchin voted with Trump like 60% of the time. I predict he joins the GOP soon. The more that little twit AOC bad mouths him on camera, the better . Keep at it girl!! Push those buttons.

I don't think she cares. I think she has a promising career ahead of her as a lobbyist and she knows it.

Good luck running an AOC style progressive against Sinema in Arizona...

Nah she burned all those bridges. She'll get a network gig.
