Biden 'still full steam ahead' on domestic agenda, despite new opposition: WH adviser

Faced with new opposition to his domestic agenda from a key Democratic senator, one of President Joe Biden's top advisers said the White House is "still full steam ahead on trying to get our legislation passed."

"Look, Senator Manchin is a valued partner, we're going to continue to work with him, but we're also going to continue to push our agenda," senior adviser to the president Cedric Richmond said on "This Week" Sunday, pressed by anchor George Stephanopoulos on how it will pass without the senator's support.

"It's not abnormal for this to happen in the legislative process ... we're still full steam ahead on trying to get our legislation passed," he added.

With Congress set to return from recess next Monday, the fate of the president's agenda is uncertain after moderate Sen. Joe Manchin declared in an op-ed Thursday that he would not support the $3.5 trillion budget resolution that Democrats alone, including Manchin, took the first step in passing last month through a process called reconciliation. Manchin called for a "strategic pause" on that bill, which contains many of Biden's "human infrastructure" priorities, including health care, child care and revamping the nation's energy sector to address climate change.

Cheer his motorcade or march in support of his leadership through these trying times. This would change the public's perception to all the negative news the M$M is feasting upon in their lust to level the playing field.

Four more years!!! Four more years!!! Four more years!!!
