    Key Dem Senator Joe Manchin is not happy with VP Harris .

    'We need to work together': Manchin blasts Harris' TV hit on Covid relief - POLITICO

    A bipartisan group of 10 Senators that he is a part of met with Quid yesterday to hash out a compromise bill . But Quid is beholden to the radicals in the party ;and Schmucky and Madam Mim are hell bent to ram their version of covid relief down our throats with the use of the reconciliation card.

    Hardly bipartisan, and their opening bid is a 3rd of what Joe and dems want. Repubs are good at shoving stuff down throats. When it comes to stocking the markets repubs are great, when it comes to main street...different story. Even the repub governor of Marcin's WVA agrees with Joe on this one. He ain't the only repub either.

    Joe has seen this stall tactic before.

    OOPS sorry Tom, missed this meeting...too much Netflix...

    Bipartisan Senate group to meet with Biden aide on coronavirus relief - Roll Call

    Looks like dems hope for the best, but plan for the worst which ain't a bad idea given history and current events.

    So you would prefer that people can't put food on the table and provide help in many areas? All for squeezing the people to serve a failed ideology?

    They are wanting to spend nearly 2 tril in order to send perhaps 400 bil to the folks. So we are going to borrow about 3K for every man, woman, and child in America in order to send most people a check for 1500K.

    Yes. That's a great idea. I guess we can use the extra to fund more studies of trans gender people overseas.

    Maybe you could use the money to send transgender people overseas
