Sanders says Biden can't count on him to support 'almost any' spending package compromise
By Mychael Schnell - 01/23/22 11:12 AM EST

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Sunday said President Biden cannot count on him to support "almost any" compromise social spending and climate package the Senate cobbles together, emphasizing that he must review the details of a proposal before deciding if he can vote for it.

Asked by moderator Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press” if Biden can count on his vote “with almost any compromise” the president arrives at with Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), Sanders said, “absolutely not.”

“You're going to have to look at what that so-called compromise is. If it's strong, if it protects the needs of working people, if it deals with climate, I'm there. But we have to look at the details of any proposal,” he added.

The Democrats’ social spending and climate package is currently stalled in the Senate because of opposition from Republicans and Manchin and Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-W.Va.). The two centrist Democrats were unable to get on board with the package despite weeks of negotiations between the White House and Capitol Hill.

Democrats are now considering passing the legislation in sections that have support in the upper chamber. Sanders’s comments, however, further muddy the water for Biden’s chances of passing one of his marquee bills, putting his support of a final compromise bill in question.

Passing the BBB bill in sections .... we'll see what Manchin does. Meanwhile Crazy Bernie is trying to stay relevant.

It will be interesting now to see how the filibuster plays into it. We also need to watch what RINOs help the DCP pass their agenda.

After Bidens 'harmless' year of catastrophic spending, and harmless inflation, along with massive destruction of American jobs,while back to sending jobs, money and technology to China.  While importing Chinese diseases and foreigners in massive numbers infected and hard core criminals.
Because it was all better than Trump in office bringing jobs back here and building up our economy, and our enemies in fear of us once again.  We now have financed and tech supported enemies that boldly challenge, threaten, and attack us, and hold our people hostage, indefinitely!
Who could ask for anything more? Oh year our government not concerned of foreign enemies, but fortifies its self against the American people, even more than Communist Countries do.
The utopia of fools and damn fools is upon us, WHO COULD ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE?  fOOLS FOUGHT FOR IT AND WE ALL GOT IT!  ("LIKE std'S?')

More.... America back to dependency on foreign energy sources, and their fists around our throats,  thank you democrat stooges.

----In similar news ---  IMO the DEMS are sounding false alarms and are hoping that the GOP becomes complacent.  The GOP needs to go in with all their fight and become absolutely relentless.

He knows how to exploit them for political gain.

More reason to have term limits.  Pelosi, Bernie, McConnell and other old evil duffers would have been out the door long ago.

Maybe we could have wealth increase limits, too.  Once a legislator's net worth increases by $1 million, that legislator must retire immediately.

Why isn’t that very few people in Washington DC seem to understand what near $30 trillion in debt means? Bernie Sanders is a believer in modern monetary theory so he doesn’t give a shit. Unfortunately, there are others like him and Washington

It's $30 trillion of OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY.  We are ants in a country run by grasshoppers.
