I have no doubt President Biden, Speaker Pelosi and Leader Schumer will manage the sausage making in the democratic conference to get a bill done. They are probably the most experienced congressional leaders we ever had coupled with a president who was a master negotiator in the senate for decades.

in 2022, pointing out they had 4 years to come up with an infrastructure bill and were too lazy to do it, along with coming up with a health care alternative and other very necessary things that need to be done. Adding insult to injury, they won't vote for any necessary thing the Democrats have proposed, only because Democrats are the ones proposing it.

Weaponize the truth, guys. The truth is your best weapon and you need to start firing.

Yes, the Daily Beast / Exxon thing might be a hoax it is mighty suspicious, though if you know the history of just how Conservative Arizona, (sided with the confederates while U.S. territory). Yes, it is only my opinion that the Exxon lobbyist story might not be real.
