Manchin: Democrats ‘Never Said’ Inflation Reduction Act Would Immediately Bring Down Costs

Democratic West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin claimed Democrats “never said” the newly passed Inflation Reduction Act would immediately bring down costs.

The senator admitted to Fox News reporter Hillary Vaughn that the reconciliation package will not “immediately” bring down the costs of groceries and everyday goods. Several Democrats have said Americans will see prices go down thanks to the legislation.

“Is it misleading to call this the Inflation Reduction Act for Americans when it’s not going to make their grocery bill cheaper, it’s not going to make everyday goods cheaper for them at least immediately?” Vaughn asked.

“Why would it? Well, immediately it’s not,” Manchin responded. “But we never said anything happens immediately like today, turn the switch on and off.”

The only way th fix this is to repeal the 17th Amendment.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

Oh my God.  Who wants to move to WV and run for senate?  Sheets moved there from NC, McConnell moved to Kentucky from the peach state.  It could work.

Would the state have as a senator someone who moved there just to run for the Senate?  Isn't that sort of part of the core meaning of the term carpet-bagger?

I don't know.  West Virginia also blessed us with a Rockefeller for about 50 terms.

The GOP needs to introduce the "Mother Earth Climate Justice Bill" that allows for unrestrained coal mining, oil and gas drilling, and the construction of new coal fired and nuclear power plants.

The Dems pulled this same bait & switch nonsense with Obama-care.  "You can keep your current doctor."
