Biden infrastructure/tax increase megathread

[MR DARK BRANDON]

What time will vote be held

[MR DARK BRANDON]

It’s like a kindergarten class

[MR DARK BRANDON]

One thing to probably take from the tortured passage of this bill is I feel Jumanee Williams is going to have competition for House Democratic leadership when Pelosi retires. Pramila Jayapal?

I don’t think Jayapal or any of the other progressives for that matter are interested in the leadership

You're still blaming the CPC for this? Christ almighty.

Typo lol! Autocorrect

So house regressives are acting like babies again

[MR DARK BRANDON]

Pelosi needs to stop chicken out.

Put all the progressives regressives on record for voting against the infrastructure bill.

They need primary challenges at the very least. This is incredibly anti American of them, scratch that. Anti HUMANITY

[MR DARK BRANDON]

I hope AOC and her 20 idiots realize what they are doing. Disgraceful. I can’t believe we replaced good legislators with these stupid  kids

[MR DARK BRANDON]

I can’t for the life of me wonder why AOC’s mom decided it was a good idea to smoke while she was in the womb

They aren’t wrong.

Pelosi has, throughout the whole process, immediately been agreeing to every condition from a handful of conservatives and focusing on beating the other 200+ Dems into submission.

Moderates didn't ruin Virginia and nearly ruin New Jersey. Progressives did. Progressives don't deserve any concessions and should be begging for Mercy.

we should try to ruin their elections see how they like it.

Terry is a progressive ? HIm ??

I think Wulfric's (moronic) argument is that Terry did nothing wrong and lost exclusively due to outside factors.

Wulfric is not wrong

[MR DARK BRANDON]

So "ORANGE MAN BAD ORANGE MAN BAD ORANGE MAN BAD" was a good message for a previously popular ex-governor to run on when Trump wasn't in office anymore? I'm just trying to understand this.

This is the same clown that has, self-admittedly, said we are larger threats to the nation than Donald Trump.

Maybe I was being hyperbolic with Wulfric and ppolitics and compucomp. Liam admits he prefers GOP rule to progressive rule.

I don’t and I think you took my words out of context I said progressives where a threat due to the fact that they are leading us to A Trump/Desantis rule. I never said I would support them over progressives (I wouldn’t)

I wonder if the Squad consented to this statement...

YAAAAAAAASSSSS QUEEEEEEEEN 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍💅💅💅💅💅💅💅💅💅💅

Am I doing this right?

[MR DARK BRANDON]

Any progressive who wants to advance their career (with the exception of president) gets a free endorsement from me.

What do they have to for my free endorsement? Vote for BIF

[MR DARK BRANDON]

[MR DARK BRANDON]

[MR DARK BRANDON]

My message to the squad tonight;

Here are the six House Democrats who broke from their party to vote against the bill:

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York
Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota
Rep. Cori Bush of Missouri
Rep. Jamaal Bowman of New York
Rep. Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts
Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan

the troublemaker caucus

The house kindergarten caucus

[MR DARK BRANDON]

AOC, is this you?

Not really. It just leaves a bad taste in my mouth to call AOC a crackbaby and I definitely don't think the thought would have crossed Liam's mind if she was white.

He should have just called her a s--- like he was thinking.

Woah woah cmon now! I was only using that argument in a non serious way due to her ideas! Race had nothing to Do with it! I’m sorry if I’ve been a bit on edge today, and I have a lot going on RN I haven’t had my meds in a few days but that is unfair to say that my attacks where in any way racially motivated.

[MR DARK BRANDON]

13 Stupid and TRAITOROUS RINOS bailed out Biden and Pelosi by voting to pass this “infrastructure bill.”
I have never felt so betrayed, this is the worst day of my life.

lmao touch grass, it's just infrastructure spending

No. This is the death of the red wave

That’s a bad thing?

[MR DARK BRANDON]

Why did Jayapal fold on holding BIF hostage. The New Yorker has the following paragraph:

According to a C.P.C. member who was in the room, the President also suggested that, if the caucus blocked the BIF again, then perhaps it was not in the cards to get either bill done. “He said, ‘Look, maybe we just don’t do any of this, and I move on,” the member said. “That was a big deal. I think some people were, like, ‘Maybe he’s had it.’ ”

Yes, I thought so.

fix the link Torie for f**k's sake

And this is why Biden is a pathetic failure of a President. If you're not just willing to shrug your shoulders and say "oh well, maybe not then" on what's supposed to be your biggest accomplishment, you're not going to get anything worthwhile done. With this attitude, Obamacare would never have passed either. Forget learning lessons from the Obama years, we're actually moving backwards

Obvious debating tactic is obvious. Of course Biden isn't sincerely apathetic to the bills passing.

Such a great "tactic" that made it significantly less likely that BBB will ever pass.

It worked for infra doe
