'Betrayal': Dems livid as outgoing senators deliver 'crushing blow'
Story by Erik De La Garza • 12h


Decisive votes against extending President Joe Biden’s nominee to the National Labor Relations Board by two outgoing independent senators provoked an immediate stream of reaction Wednesday from political observers across social media.

The internet began to chime in after it became clear that Sen. Joe Manchin (I-WV) and Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) effectively cost Democrats control of the labor board through 2026 with their “no” votes.
 
“Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema just delivered a crushing blow to the labor agenda,” Democratic strategist Chris Jackson wrote in a social media post. “Their votes effectively hand Donald Trump the keys to the board the moment he takes office again. This is a betrayal of working families — and a gift to corporate interests, which is par for the course for these two.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

the National Labor Relations Board needs to be dissolved on day two.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
