Or GTFOH with this insulting horseshit. Start asking and don’t stop asking him why he’s with ALEC. Make him cry uncle.

....in the Democratic caucus, including one who we're constantly reminded "always votes with the Democrats."

https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/biden-congress-votes/

Look way down at the bottom of the list of Democrats in the "Biden Score" column ("How often the member votes in line with Biden's position" )

Plus he almost always shows up for votes (missed only 2% last year)

Right now, the most vital piece of legislation we could possibly pass is this voting rights act. What democracy we have left is in very serious danger of being overturned, and currently it is Manchin that is holding it up. Even after Biden gave his wife a really good job. Honestly, it is getting so I am questioning Manchin's party affiliation.

We have to get rid of that filibuster, George. So we can pass the voting rights act and hopefully retain our majority, instead of losing it as we will for sure if things go as they are now.
