Joe manchin aside, cornell is right. this whole problem with the for the people act and dealing with all of the voting restriction bills passed around the country by state legislatures, by republicans, is that we really cant be looking at the vote passing. a lot of democratic messaging has been that we have to focus on the vote counting and how corruptible it will be with the passage of these bills. how partisan and potentially raided it will be. there is a talk of water bottles and how that dis...

To you, a.b., because i know joe manchin is your favorite topic. your reaction to pelosi saying she is, quote, not giving up on getting mention the support the for the people acts. >> well, i think its impressive that the house speaker recently said she wasnt gonna give up on senate republicans either are getting behinds a commission to investigate january six and the worst assault on the capitol since the civil war. and surely they walked right off the cliff in lockstep and refused to back it b...
