What the fukk are you talking about? I want both bills to pass because it’s for the good of the country and most progressives do. We are pissed centrist like Manchin and Sinema have openly have come out they will not vote for the $3.5 trillion bill. Saying only pass the $1.5 trillion bill and wait until 2022 to pass it. So if they want to go lay that game then progressives must stand firm and say no both bills must pass and some half ass measure. Biden and Bernie are on the same page wanting both bills to pass. It’s centrist who are sabotaging Biden’s agenda not progressives. Also Centrist were the ones who came out again lowering prescription drug cost meanwhile they campaigned for it a year ago. I see you and your homeboy never have smoke for these centrist clowns for that drug cost shyt. Its always shytting on AOC or Bernie. If Democrats don’t pass agendas that help their party win future elections then what is the fukking point in voting for them in the future? If you pass ad hoc half ass bills that don’t provide relief for most people it’s not a winning solution. The $3.5 trillion bill does that and more. Biden and Bernie both know this. It’s just blue dog Democrats sabotaging the party like they did to Clinton and Obama.
Exactly.
These centrist Dems are actively sabotaging and jockeying for the pharma industry.
Pressure and Wire28 aren't for whatever reason willing to see this. To them, everything is the progressive caucus' fault. They're the ones who are on the same page with Biden and the leadership. Most of the New Dems i.e. the larger centrist group of Dems in the House are also on board. You have these 10 motherfukkers in the House being bytch asses right now.
In the Senate, Brian Schatz, Bernie, Durbin, and a few others openly said 40 Dems wanted to invest $6 trillion over 10 years. And the $3.5T deal was a compromise for the budget framework.
They never shid on people like this Peters guy or Schrader in Oregon or Manchin and Siinema's clown asses.
They've been hoping for this to fail since the beginning.
They've even changed the title say centrists are blocking the bill while actively demanding progressives in the house block it.
They're not honest brokers and they've been wrong on almost every major electoral take they've made over the past 5 years.
I want everything to pass.
But what do you do if you're Jayapal and the progressives who want every program to stay in the package? Why are the centrists fukking it all up? There's no other leverage than their votes for the bipartisan bill.
This gang of 10 in the House and the 2 in the Senate (plus the cowards who they speak for) arent even talking about specific programs to cut. It's all "oh big number bad, I can't vote". Where's the logic in this?
Sinema told Biden to his face she was going to the tank the whole thing!
Why is there no smoke for these people?
Dems have talked about drug price reform for 15 years. Since the 6 for 2006! Do you remember that?
And the major electoral take for next year i.e. the Dems losing the House is not controversial. It is an inevitability. Clyburn is talking about losing the majority for 40 years.
Get your shid together now so you can say you made the biggest social welfare and infrastructure investment in over 5 decades.
