Senate Energy Committee Chair Joe Manchin (D-W.V.) blasted the Biden administration’s new guidance on “foreign entities of concern” (FEOCs) ineligible for the Inflation Reduction Act’s (IRA) electric vehicle tax credits, calling them contradictory to the text of the landmark climate law.

Manchin, when an election is near: I think for myself! And I object to what Biden is doing!
Manchin, when an election is not near: I vote with President Biden.
Sigh. The tragedy is that he’s no different than most people in Congress.
West Virginians, don’t forget to get ri5of this phony.

Just follow the money with Manchin.
He sold all his Votes.
His wife made a fortune, too - under Biden.
Manchin is a DEMOCRAT, so all you ‘conservatives’ out there who voted for him, or sat out his re-election because the Republican wasn’t ‘pure enough’ for you are getting EXACTLY WHAT YOU DESERVE - you have NOTHING to bitch about, he doesn’t owe our side crap.
