This. Progressives holding up a bill for another bill that isn’t even complete yet. Progressives are to blame if Biden walks away with nothing on Thursday.

How? BBB bill is part of Biden’s agenda. Biden and Congressional leadership already agreed to coupling of both bills. Sinema and Manchin are the ones going rogue.

fukk passing the physical infrastructure deal if they don’t pass the human infrastructure deal. I pray progressives don’t cave.

The deal was pass both the BBB and BIB at the same time. Biden himself said he wouldn't sign one bill without the other. Progressives are the only ones fighting to make that a reality.

'Moderates' aren't even operating in good faith on the BBB. They keep saying it's too expensive, but won't say what how much they want to spend. They don't agree with everything that's proposed in the bill, but won't say what they want taken out. They demand the BIB is passed now, but won't even commit to a vote on the BBB.

No. This is entirely on the 'moderates.' The president wants both bills, they both poll extremely well, and these corporate goon 'moderates' are playing games. Of course the progressives will get the blame because liberals won't ever take their side (perhaps understandably), and the media loves dikkriding corporations, dikkriding Republicans, and playing #BothSides, so of course they only want to see the corporate-backed 'bipartisan' bill.

Progressives are doing what they were told by Biden, Pelosi and Schumer. Everyone knew the deal.

Biden wanted two-track as did the leadership. Bipartisan went through regular order. Then there'd be reconciliation. Passed at the same time encompassing nearly the entire Biden agenda.

And by the way, this isn't just the progressive caucus. You have committee chairs like Maxine Waters, Pete DeFazio, and others who are openly saying that only passing the bipartisan bill is horse shid.

You really think people who been in Congress for 20-30 years who've worked their entire careers for this moment are going to only pass the only leverage they have over Sinema and Manchin? Manchin is talking about passing reconciliation before NOVEMBER 2022. BEFORE THE MIDTERMS.

Just insanity. Everyone knows shid isn't going to be happening when people are campaigning.

It's now or never for both bills. Bipartisan bill will fail on Thursday if Pelosi puts it on the floor. If that happens, she can always bring it back up when they get the reconciliation in order. She most probably won't bring it to the floor due to her track record. But this is also her last hurrah. Maybe she does bring it so it can fail and show the Senate they need to get those 2 in line.

Biden promised popular things like addressing the Medicaid gap and lowering drug prices. You only pass the bipartisan bill, none of that shid is going to happen in 2022. And the Dems need quick Ws and material benefits going out to people well before the election.
@Atlrocafella has not been following what’s been going on at all, and is proud of that. Why give him all of this? He won’t read it, doesn’t care and if he does read it he won’t fully understand because he doesn’t care.

And we know how @DEAD7 is.

Facts. Bad faith actors. They won’t even say what they don’t want in the Bill because they know this is a good bill for the people.

The mainstream media won’t do its job to bring clarity either. It’s a damn shame that the only mainstream media show that attempts(half way) to hold these ghouls responsible these days is Chris Wallace Sunday show on fukking Fox News.

Edit: Sometimes I feel like the Ed Norton character on 25th hour.

2 (backed by donor money) have a problem with their leader's agenda vs almost 30 who say fukk that we have to ride on it. Let's blame the 30.

Anybody talking about "win something" on Thursday is a fool. How you gonna explain to your constituents that you lost to yourself?

If they cave I'm never voting again I'm my life. They lose all leverage that they have if they cave. I honestly would be on all media outlets and social media just hammering manchin and that chick

I put all those “centrists” on ignore about a year or two ago and don’t regret it. Atlrockafella, wire69 or whatever, Pressure, the cac mamba, Nap, DalMem, can’t remember all of their names. None of those nikkas is ever getting a half a bar from me again.

They'd get the blame regardless, so fukk it. I'm glad they're finally throwing their weight around. It's the centrists and DINO's fukking everything up, so maybe aim your anger at the correct people. Biden said he could Unite and work with the left and the right but can't even fukking get enough moderate dems and conservative dems to back him.
