"If progressives fold again to new demand by Dem leadership to vote on infrastructure bill without even voting on BBB in the House, their defeat will be even more humiliating. There’s now a good chance they’re going to get NOTHING. Trusting Democratic leadership has NEVER worked."
"Will every progressive in Congress admit “trusting” Biden was a terrible mistake and promise that they’ll never trust Dem leadership again if Senate never passes BBB or guts it?"
"Isn’t it amazing that so-called journalists like
@andersoncooper
&
@jaketapper
never mention that every provision of BBB is incredibly popular in West Virginia & Arizona? Especially the provisions Manchin & Sinema killed! They do the opposite and imply those states don’t want it."
"This is a terrible plan. Even if it passes the House, Manchin has clearly stated he’s made no promises to vote for BBB in Senate. And without any leverage, we’ll all see that bill get eviscerated in Senate as progressive “leaders” tell us there was nothing they could do. #VoteNo"
"This is as easy a prediction as I’ve ever made: Once progressive leadership helps BIF pass in House, BBB will either not pass at all in the Senate or be stripped to the bone until it’s a comically empty bill with nearly every progressive priority taken out. Absolute guarantee!"
"I say this now because I also guarantee you
@RepJayapal
and other so-called progressive leaders will pretend to be surprised and upset as it gets gutted. You agreed to that result tonight, so please spare us the fake indignation later. This is not negotiation, this is surrender."
"I will bet
@RepJayapal
any amount of money that the House version of BBB is not passed as is by the Senate. A promise from corporate Democrats like Biden and Pelosi are worth approximately nothing. Also, Manchin said he made no promise! This is the most obvious trap of all time."
Chunk Yogurt's twatter was pretty hilarious last night also
Please share, I dont watch twitter so I miss out good stuff :)
