Bernie TEARS INTO Corrupt Joe Manchin For Sabotaging The Democratic Agenda

Senator Bernie Sanders didn’t hold back on his criticism of obstructionist West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin after he rejected the Democrats’ latest attempt to propose legislation to combat climate change and properly tax the wealthy. Bernie saw right through Manchin’s lies during the entire process, telling ABC’s Martha Raddatz that there’s “nothing new” about Manchin working for his donors against the working class of West Virginia.

"Sen. Bernie Sanders lambasted fellow Sen. Joe Manchin on Sunday for sinking the Democratic Party's latest effort to pass renewable energy funding, accusing the West Virginia Democrat of acting on behalf of his corporate and billionaire donors instead of the working class of his home state.

Rejecting the notion that Manchin "abruptly pulled the plug" on the majority party's revived push for a scaled-back reconciliation package ahead of the November midterms, Sanders told ABC's Martha Raddatz that there was "nothing new" about the West Virginia senator's move last week, when he reportedly told the Democratic leadership that he wouldn't support new climate spending or taxes on the wealthy.

Senate Democrats now plan to push ahead with an even narrower bill that would extend soon-to-expire Affordable Care Act subsidies and let Medicare negotiate the prices of some prescription drugs directly with pharmaceutical companies.

"If you check the record, six months ago I made it clear that you have people like Manchin, [Sen. Kyrsten] Sinema to a lesser degree, who are intentionally sabotaging the president's agenda, what the American people want, what a majority of us in the Democratic caucus want," Sanders said Sunday."
