@TheTJHelm @nielslesniewski Protect him in that White House, along with many Senate offices, has allowed him to play a high-profile role in all of this, making him seem relevant to the party, and now he's saying he never intended to vote for this. — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S. was close to universal paid leave. With the collapse of Build Back Better, it's all fallen apart. The U.S. is one of just 7 nations that does not offer paid leave. https://t.co/I6r6iJSM7h via @19thnews — PolitiTweet.org

My final byline for 2021, the year that kept on giving: Democrats' Build Back Better plan, aimed at "addressing longstanding discrimination and barriers that have hampered women," falters in Senate, doomed by @Sen_JoeManchin this year & next: https://t.co/Sn0U84Rkhv via @19thnews — PolitiTweet.org

@emarvelous We are now battling over whether honey-baked ham will be served on Christmas day. I think I'd rather drink mold water. — PolitiTweet.org
Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker
My parents inexplicably don’t drink actual water. I just dug out the the many-years-old Brita and asked when the last time they changed the filter was. Mother: “Never.” 🤯🤢😳😨🤔😲😷 — PolitiTweet.org

@cameron_easley @burgessev @nielslesniewski That's true, it was. But they're related. The optics of the past 6 months are that he's a pivotal Democratic player & gave him a chance to publicly frame things for his voters, & reasoning was always that D's need that seat. I'm not convinced beyond 2022 it matters. — PolitiTweet.org
Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker
@cameron_easley @burgessev @nielslesniewski There is middle ground between "scorched earth" and making someone central to negotiations and giving them the limelight and access to the White House. If he's not a good-faith negotiator, don't waste the time? — PolitiTweet.org
Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker
@nielslesniewski @burgessev @cameron_easley Now this is a good post 2022 point. — PolitiTweet.org
Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker
@DougHeye @cameron_easley @nielslesniewski But he's not up until 2024 and don't you think Democrats are going to lose the Senate majority next year anyway? — PolitiTweet.org
Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker
@burgessev @nielslesniewski @cameron_easley If they didn't cater to him during BBB negotiations — which again, he just said he never intended to support — would he really spend next year vindictively blocking judges??? (Some of which are getting R votes). — PolitiTweet.org
Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker
@DougHeye @cameron_easley @nielslesniewski Seems unclear? He's functioning as an adversary, not a member who supports their key priorities. — PolitiTweet.org

@nielslesniewski @cameron_easley It always comes back to Breyer! — PolitiTweet.org
Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker
@cameron_easley @nielslesniewski Is he tho? He just derailed a key piece of legislation of importance to D's most loyal constituencies and said he never planned on voting for it as they negotiated for months. — PolitiTweet.org
Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker
@cameron_easley @nielslesniewski yet they're so concerned about appeasing him -- why?? I genuinely cannot figure it out. — PolitiTweet.org
Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker
@nielslesniewski But they're likely to lose the "majority" next year anyway so why continue to protect Manchin? — PolitiTweet.org
Amanda Becker @AmandaBecker
Actual question: Now that we know the D from WV did not think he'd ever vote for BBB, & doesn't answer calls from president, why is it important for party to protect that seat so it doesn't go R? Other than the non-majority majority, which they will prob lose sep & apart from WV. — PolitiTweet.org

"It's been a horrible year, hasn't it?" A congressional year that began with an assault on the seat of democracy ended at 4 a.m. Saturday with the failure of a narrow Democratic majority to deliver on its most cherished promises. https://t.co/KCOpGrwtpL — PolitiTweet.org

Privately, Sen. Joe Manchin has told his colleagues that he essentially doesn’t trust low-income people to spend government money wisely. https://t.co/E00AnKe5aD via @HuffPostPol — PolitiTweet.org

West Virginia has the 7th-highest child poverty rate among states. In 2019, TWENTY PERCENT of its children were living in poverty. Interesting that Manchin "knew from beginning" he wouldn't support BBB: https://t.co/AzdOoFiEZ5 — PolitiTweet.org

Biden — & Congress — overtly framed BBB as long-needed plan to support women’s workforce participation, at time when they were forced out of workforce in unprecedented numbers during COVID. Women, in particular women of color, were critical to Biden’s & Democratic 2020 victories. — PolitiTweet.org
