Sen. Joe Manchin's deal with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer for an oil and gas permitting bill in exchange for the West Virginia senator's support for the White House's $739 billion climate change spending and tax hike, signed into law last week by President Biden, is in jeopardy, as progressives say they are not bound by any agreement and vow to oppose the legislation.

[AT7Saluki]

Well there's a stunner - Democrats lying about intentions. Manchin is either complicit or a complete rube.

[Ebenezer]

Just like Chamberlain bought into the Munich Agreement of 1938 which Hitler had no intention of honoring.

[MustKnowHistory]

Well, duh.

[Reily]

He thinks he’s buying into the good graces of the left so he can have a shot at the Rat nomination in 2024. (Or at least the VP slot!). He’s 75 it’s now or never.

[NorthMountain]

Manchin is complicit.

[rktman]

Oil and gas drilling? 😲.

[Da Coyote]

There is only solution for far-left rats. Sooner or later, we’ll be forced to admit it.
After admission comes implementation.

[PIF]

Manchin is either complicit or a complete rube.

—
both.

[frank ballenger]

I’ll believe the Dem schism I hoped for since the 1990s will actually come to fruition.
I also hope for world peace and settlement of the national debt.

If there is a squabble the Right should exploit it and push it like the Left has done with our Romney, Liz, etc. ones. They control the media, though.

[PIF]

The end game here, with this policy of squashing fossil fuels, is de-industrialization of the West, while making their territories ungovernable.

[Political Junkie Too]

Schumer will lie about a deal even when he doesn't need to be just to avoid the precedent.

Bend over Joe. Here comes Schmucky Schumer again.

[RedMonqey]

It is next to Pennsylvania that historically speaking had plenty of oil, gas I suppose from fracking but the real question is in what amount and is it was economically feasible to get.

Machine just bet his career on it so we will see.

[joshua c]

how many times can the dems get away with this?

he got fooled by wimpy

i will gladly pay you tuesday for a hamburger today

[Roadrunner383]

If Manchin was serious about his deal with Schumer, he would have demanded that his bill be passed before the so-called Inflation Reduction Act.

[DrGunsforHands]

If he was serious he would have forced it in the crap burger bill.

[ApplegateRanch]

Never fails!

[kiryandil]

Looks like the Green Bux of Xi and Putin are still working hard to kill American energy.

[KarlInOhio]

So, Manchin, how does it feel to be used like a $20 hooker who didn’t get her money up front?

[ridesthemiles]

Day after bill was signed-—Sierra Club & Biodiversity group filed lawsuits about the environment protections.
