Her constituents want her to be a proper Democrat, instead of whatever it is that her Republican donors want her to be. Sad thing is, she prefers to follow the money.
Yes, a proper democrat. That is, not to speak for herself. Fall in line. Repubs dont do that. Which is a better concept?

There's Zahlanzi... Hey, why won't the libs, the mob, answer the question about Taiwan vs China? Can NO ONE speak for themselves, what a perfect cohesive narrative you fellers are running.

@AverageJoe1 -- Both China and Taiwan are to be respected for the advances they have made despite the selfish interference and invasions of Western and other powers.

Whereas Iowa or whatever is just Iowa. Or Nebraska. "Dig in!"


@AverageJoe1
You mean the part where the avowed method of republicans is to stop anything written by dems? Does the phrase "I am the grim reaper" mean anything?

It's because the question is stupid AF.

Holy crap, Global Research AGAIN?

You are becoming addicted to fear.


The Dems didn't have to do too much to modify Sinema though I hate the idiotic "carried interest" rule which she saved because some of her big donors insisted on it. https://www.businessinsider.com/kyrsten-sinema-donors-score-win-from-carried-interest-tax-break-2022-8

There were a few other corporate tax dodges she managed to preserve but a 1% tax on stock buybacks was added which should raise considerable revenue.

All in all, the bill is a good one even if it does not match progressive hopes. For that, the Dems will need a few more Senators and continued control of the House which the People will decide in November (using our flawed, undemocratic system of course).

Yeah, the so-called repubs fell in line really well stopping anything started by Dems.
Till now anyway. Now they will do the turnaround just like they did on the infranet bill giving billions to fix bridges, they voted unanimously no but then touted how great it was after they saw the money pouring into bridge and roadwork projects in their states. Fukking hypocrites.
They will to the same to the climate bill just passed too.

Thank you Newt Gingrich. Such a NICE person. Such a POS actually.

If a Democrat in Arizona wants a quick ride to the Senate, run against Sinema. She's going to be primaried so hard her head will spin completely off.
She'll be around for a couple more years - unless you crazies do something unnatural to her.

Everyone's going to hate her for it, but I bet she's going to torpedo the current bill that Manchin and Schumer are so happy about — on principle, and because it's what her constituents would want her to do.
Y'all can stop rejoicing, she shaved it back,
---for her big donors,, no doubt, but she's on board....
It's a done deal........to The House, then The President's desk/
.............Great week for Old JOE
