Cuts & Cosplay Oct 28, 2021

Show notes

Here’s the $1.85 trillion framework that Biden got the corporate Dems to agree to for now. As of Thursday morning that two crucial holdouts, Senators Joe Manchin III of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona, had yet to commit to voting for it. There’s nothing left in the bill and progressives should vote no. Rep. Jamaal Bowman Slams Manchin’s ‘Completely Unacceptable’ Opposition to Paid Family Leave: ‘He’s Regurgitating Talking Points From the 1980s.’ Don Lemon Bluntly Asks Democratic Rep. ‘Are You Concerned That It Looks Like Your Party Is Blowing It?’ It’s a NO from AOC on the useless version of the reconciliation bill that Manchin has now taken full control of. Manchin’s obstruction is already making him richer. Joe Manchin is just as bad at running from constituents as Sinema is. WATCH: Jen Psaki Bristles at Kristen Welker’s ‘Unconstructive Line Of Questioning’ on Build Back Better Deal. Israel to build 1,300 settlement units in occupied West Bank.

Don't touch me Oct 26, 2021

Show notes

Paid family leave, one of the hallmarks of President Joe Biden's social safety net agenda, is in jeopardy of being pared down once again or even cut from a major spending bill over a lack of support from Joe Manchin. Democratic leaders are telling members to embrace the spending bill, even as progressives see several major policy goals get tossed. Kyrsten Sinema was confronted by a self-described constituent as she walked through an airport. The border patrol agent who posted a doctored sex photo of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez got away with it. Mitt Romney expressed concern that taxing billionaires could cause them to invest in paintings or ranches rather than things that build jobs.
