I wouldn't be at all surprised if Manchin pulled a "Lucy" no matter what he thinks he got in the deal. He's become too agreeable of late.

McTurtle is himself a master of the slight of hand. I wonder why he didn't pitch much of a fuss? Strange goings on on capital hill.

Are we on a roll? I think the Jan 6th Committee significantly moved the needle. Mitch is out, patriots are in.

May Mitch never live down any of his evil deeds.

He should probably avoid public places for his safety I'd imagine now.

Being despised by most has consequences!

Muhaha!
