with this absolute bias and what they re going to get from the other side of the aisle. why am i saying this? the media is all atwitter, literally and figuratively that mitch mcconnell, whied some new threat. here it is. nobody serving in this chamber can even begin can even begin to imagine what a completely scorched earth senate would look like. the senate would be more like a 100-car pileup. nothing moving. now, not only is this not true, but it is not to be believed. i don t know why anybody is seeing this. with any type of sense of a appre apprehension. it s being viewed as a threat. it is not a threat. it is a promise from a political conniver without equal who s made a legacy of beating the democrats. he eliminated the filibuster for supreme court nominations in 2017. hello? why would you listen to him about this? why would you even consider what he s saying? that was scorched earth. no one can imagine it? you lived it, democrats. you ve lived it with him. he r

deciding vote in the event of a tie. so when you look at it the failure that manchin doesn t want to go back to fdr-like policies or lbj policies which bankrupted people that removed work requirements. handed people money freely to stay home instead of going to work. when he looks to west virginia for his political survival as well as economic survival, he sees this is not the survival of the country if they go down this progressive path. nicole: katie, media has certainly been attacking senator manchin but you wrote a piece town hall about killing of the build back better plan essentially saying good-bye to biden being the next fdr. tell us about that. katie: joe biden campaigned as a moderate. when he came into office to repay people on the left to bernie sanders who is now the senate budget committee chairman and aoc congresswoman in the house and part kristina of the d
