12:12Now PlayingJoe Manchin was promised by Democratic leadership that the West Virginia Senator’s pet bill granting accelerated permitting to pipeline projects – as well as renewable energy projects – would be passed by the end of the year. But Congressional progressives made no such promise, and they could use their power as a bloc to attempt to derail Manchin’s bill. But will they? The fact that all they’ve mustered so far is a strongly-worded letter to Nancy Pelosi suggests that their backbones are no stiffer than during the days of Force the Vote.
Jimmy and America’s comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the likelihood that The Squad and fellow progressives will launch anything other than token resistance to Manchin’s unquestionably climate unfriendly bill.
