This! ----- while our Democratic POTUS is abroad on the international stage and on the eve of

the "neck and neck" Virginia gubernatorial election--------!

I guess I'd better just keep my damn mouth shut because there is nothing I can think of that is both honest and not violative of the TOS!

..just as Biden headed to COP26 without his $500Billion Climate bill to present as Americ's committment.
And with the Virginia race closing in.

Didn't matter a wit a week ago, nor today.
But damn if it didn't make for some chest beating media spots!

Well, Everyone knows who Biden is. A man of his word. He will succeed on that word.
The others? Now we known them too.
"Nothing's better than something!" REALLY!

Why Schumer didn't threaten to strip this clown of his committee assignments, appoint him greeter on the senate floor or something

Crappiest leadership ever

Because he would appoint him minority leader. It is nice to pretend we have leverage, but Manchin knows we have none. There is nothing we can do, aside from getting Susan to medically retire and let Janet replace her.
