(FOX NEWS) – Sen. Joe Manchin this weekend effectively killed Joe Biden’s landmark legislation, the multitrillion-dollar Build Back Better Act.
Once heralded as the Democrat Party’s flagship bill on social policy and climate, public in-fighting and defunding recently relegated it to the last beacon of hope for Biden to salvage his fledgling agenda and reverse the catastrophic trajectory of this country.
Instead, BBB now lies dead in the water alongside a crippling wake of broken campaign promises, such as student loan forgiveness and a plan for COVID. Worse, the main things that Biden and the Democrat Party have successfully delivered to the American people since taking office are historic inflation, a supply chain crisis, rising crime and surging illegal immigration.
Over the past 48 hours, frenzied and frothing liberal pundits have saturated news outlets and slammed Manchin as being single-handedly responsible for killing their decades-promised paid family medical and leave act and enhanced child tax credit imbedded deep within the BBB legislation.
In reality, the Wall Street Journal just published a study that confirmed the Build Back Better plan would have doubled the cost of day care for middle-income families by acting as a $20,000 – $30,000 annual tax on working-class Americans at a time when this country is already suffering the worst inflation in 40 years.
Progressive pied pipers, Reps. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., and even the maskless Maxine Waters, D-Calif., have all publicly accused Manchin of derailing BBB’s purported affordable housing funding, universal pre-K and radical climate change agenda.
In reality, Donald Trump already gave more funding to public housing than any president since 1997, issued an executive order funding school choice and under his administration, the United States led the world in lowest carbon emissions, while simultaneously being a net exporter of natural gas and energy independent for the first time in 60 years. Much to the chagrin of globalists, Trump also accomplished the latter without kowtowing to the inequitable Paris climate accord.
