"My phone rang early the morning after the long 2020 election night. It was Joe Manchin waking me up. He immediately jumped from “congratulations” to discussing how to reinvigorate bipartisanship in Washington. At the time, we did not know that the Senate would be equally divided between Republicans and Democrats, making Joe’s vote the most sought-after in the Senate.
In 2021, Joe is in the midst of every debate. He is front and center on the filibuster issue, the infrastructure­ debate, and issues from voting laws to immigration to taxes and spending, as well as nearly every appointment made by the President. In short, Joe is the go-to-guy in the 50-50 Senate.

Joe believes passionately that bipartisanship leads to the best solutions, and he wants to prove it can still work. As someone who shares his belief in working across the aisle, I always want him on my side."

my new magazine and saw the article.

3. I suppose I shouldn't say this in the midst of the Covid

pandemic, but a plague on both their houses.

5. I suppose the mutual asskissing is to be expected,

in return for Manchin endorsing her instead of her Democratic opponent.

6. That coal owned POS is in charge of writing our climate policy.

What the fuck is happening.

7. And behind his back she is laughing at Manchin just

like all the other pukes. He is their entertainment and he doesn't even know it. Karma is a bitch Joe Manchin.

8. Susan Collins waves Joe Manchin's balls over DC...

That's just embarrassing.
