I agree. I could have sworn they were told by parliament that they couldn't include amnesty in the reconciliation bill.

I truly hope both fail. Thank goodness Manchin and Semina have some sense about them.

Clyburn, Shut your face. You're the single reason why Biden is playing as president right now. This guy is from my state and he makes me ill.

Anyone who can be bought off easily. Sold to the highest bidder.

I read that in a bio of Pelosi! I believe ever word of it!

Full revolt in the House right now led by Jayapal, ~20 Progressives hand voted internally to tank infrastructure

Pelosi needs like 10 more Republicans to go along to overcome the woke cultists

Might not be such a bad idea for the GOP to do this, would split the Dems right and half

Nancy has adopted a new strategy... "15 days to pass the bill".

Except the infrastructure bill has a lot - majority - of non-infrastructure things in it. If it was only roads and bridges and airports I'd be all for it.

Rest assured that even if it was all infrastructure, there will be plenty of funding for certain districts that don't need it, and many needs will go unfunded.

I also would like both bills to fail. They are Partisan Boondoggle Porkulous Bills. Not good for the People.

It’s a Showdown at the OK Corral — we will know later tonight how this works out.
Pelosi controls the. Money Bags, but that’s no help for many of them. Many are Dead Men/Women(Politically) Walking and they know it. 63/Seats went Poof! 10 years ago and Pelosi Money won’t stop that in 2022.

The People DO NOT like this stuff, they said on Tuesday this week, the Polls confirm it.

Likewise.

I'd like that failure to go further and for an indefinite moratorium to be placed on any and all new spending until, at a minimum, the Feds run a substantial budget surplus for a minimum of 10 consecutive years with a 20% tax cut across the board.
