In a remarkable interview attempting to justify his agreement with the senate Build Back Better climate change bill (fraudulently labeled ‘inflation reduction act’), West Virginia Democrat Senator Joe Manchin says the massive energy spending and tax bill will bring green renewable energy much quicker. In essence, the windmills and solar panels for West Virginia will arrive faster now, and that will improve energy production. [Transcript Here]
When discussing the new energy origination provisions, Senator Manchin catches himself mid-sentence saying, “the battery better be made in America.” He quickly corrected himself knowing the claim was false and followed up with, “better be sourced in North America, it better be processed,” because he is well aware the largest employment and investment beneficiaries for his deal will be Mexico and Canada, not American workers. WATCH:
♦ BRASS TACKS – Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was gleeful last week promoting Manchin’s new green energy proposal because, with steel and aluminum tariffs removed, Canada will be one the biggest beneficiaries of $370 billion congressional spending package. Canada has no heavy industry left, they are the assembly economy for foreign manufacturing that uses loopholes, and the senate bill creates a USMCA loophole for this exact purpose.
The West Virginia windmills and solar panels will be shipped as raw materials from China and the EU into Canada. Canada will assemble the parts and ship the finished goods into the United States for placement by illegal alien workers employed by the contractors. The batteries to store the solar and windmill power will come from Mexico, after they receive the raw materials from Africa and Asia.
Canadian workers, Mexican workers, Chinese Workers, African workers and ASEAN workers will all benefit from the generous Joe Manchin spending package.
Unemployed West Virginia coal miners will watch Joe Manchin run for office in 2024 on Japanese televisions powered by China, while eating cheese puff flavored cricket snacks sourced from Canada. Brilliant plan, Joe.
[Transcript] – JOHN DICKERSON: We go now to West Virginia Democrat Joe Manchin. Senator, welcome. I hope you’re feeling better from the COVID. Let me start with a- with a–
SENATOR JOE MANCHIN: –John, thanks for having me. I appreciate it.
JOHN DICKERSON: Let me start with something you said back in 2010 in a debate when you were running for Senate, here’s what you said:
SEN. JOE MANCHIN SOT: “I don’t think during the time of recession, you mess with any of the taxes or increase any taxes.”
JOHN DICKERSON: So that’s become the- your Republican colleagues favorite quote to roll out now that you’ve made this agreement with Chuck Schumer that has a tax piece to it. Why did you change your mind?
SEN. JOE MANCHIN: John, I didn’t change my not- my mind, I’ve never changed at all this is fighting inflation. This is all about the- the absolute horrible position that people are in now because of the inflation costs, whether it be gasoline, whether it be food pricing, whether it be energy pricing, and it’s around energy, mostly that’s driving these high inflation. This is going to do- take care of that, because this is aggressively producing more energy to get more supply to get the prices down. That’s what we’re doing. But we didn’t raise taxes, John, the taxes were- the corporate tax in America in 2017, before the Republican tax cut was 35%. They cut it to 21% 14% reduction. All the people that I know are paying 21% or more. All the even larger corporations, but some of the largest corporations of a billion dollars of value or more don’t even want to pay the minimum of 15%.
JOHN DICKERSON: So, this is an issue of fairness?
SEN. JOE MANCHIN: It’s basically closing– this is a fairness in closing a loophole. So, I’m not raising any taxes. I never thought that people weren’t paying at least 21.
JOHN DICKERSON: Let me ask you about–
SEN. JOE MANCHIN: –And I don’t know why. I mean, we went- go ahead I’m sorry.
JOHN DICKERSON: On the raising- Okay, so I understand what you’re saying about closing loopholes. But the Republican criticism, which attaches to what you said in 2010, is, when you increase taxes, by closing loopholes, you hurt supply, and during inflation, you want a lot of supply. And so even though this might not be a tax increase relative to previous rates, the taxes for certain companies will go up, which will make them produce more so the theory goes, and that will hurt inflation.
SEN. JOE MANCHIN: Let me just say this, John, in the last two years, there have been massive record profits across the board by these largest corporations, massive record profits, and it’s been the lowest capital expenditure in the last few years, so that didn’t drive it. What they’ve all told me was we want security, we want to have some type of pathway forward in permitting and regulations. They’re strangling us. And this is what we’re doing. We’re streamlining the regulations that people have to live within. It- basically accelerating how we get things to market, how quick we can produce things, how quick we can basically produce more energy, and how we can develop more technology. And using that for our benefit. We’re talking about also batteries for electric cars. If you want to get a discount on an electric car by buying an EV, the battery better be made in America, better be sourced in North America, it better be processed.
JOHN DICKERSON: Your Republican colleagues think you and Chuck Schumer did something underhanded by essentially, it looked like there wasn’t going to be anything big passed and then set and then you changed course worked out something with Schumer. Senator Cornyn, the Republican from Texas, said that that unveiling this agreement between you and Senator Schumer was “a declaration of political warfare.”
SEN. JOE MANCHIN: It’s such a shame. John Cornyn is a good friend of mine. He’s such a good man. And for the politics to be so toxic right now. First of all, I never thought this would come to fruition. I never spoke with anybody about any of my colleagues, because they were frustrated that nothing happened for so long. On the other, I never could get the Build Back Better, which is a three and a half trillion-dollar spending bill. This is a $400 billion investment bill. And everything my Republicans talked about reducing the amount of debt that we have- we’re paying down $300 billion- first time in 25 years, they gotta like that. And next of all, they wanted more energy, I want more energy, we’re going to be producing more energy. There’s an agreement that we’re going to be drilling and doing more than we can to bring more energy to the market that reduces prices. They like that. I mean, it’s and there’s going to be a streamlining of permitting John, but they got to like that so well. I’m hoping they just- take cool off. Take a good look at the bill.
JOHN DICKERSON: Their argument is and this matters because you are working with Republicans on other pieces of legislation and Susan Collins, one of those Republicans you’re working with says that this, this break of trust, which is what they’re calling it, you made certain representations they would say to Republicans and broke your trust, she said Susan Collins said it’s a very unfortunate move that delay – that that destroys the many bipartisan efforts that are underway. In other words, whether it’s on election reform, or same sex marriage that that the well has been poisoned.
SEN. JOE MANCHIN: Well, here’s the thing, I think Susan Collins is, you know, my very dear friend, we work almost on everything together. But the thing of it, I never told anybody that I wasn’t going to do something. If I had a chance to fix the energy policy of the United States of America, and I didn’t do it, shame on me. If I had the chance to reduce the amount of inflation and people in West Virginia and across the country are enduring right now. Shame on me. And I never thought they would come to an agreement and use a dual path and basically recognizing within this administration, working with President Biden’s administration and working with Chuck Schumer, and all of them who basically were going a different direction, and were very upset with me for so long that they would ever sit down. But I guess, you know, this thing is bigger, become truly horrible for the families all across America. So now to have a piece of legislation, that we have energy, and we have investments for new energy, but basically, that’s a responsibility. You can walk and chew gum, you have a balanced approach. These are solutions Americans want. We were able to provide these solutions. Let’s not make them political, John.
JOHN DICKERSON: You and Senator Schumer have a deal. A lot of Democrats who used to be very angry at you are suddenly now saying nice things about you, Senator Kyrsten Sinema. Have you talked to Senator Sinema whose vote is still unknown on these bills? And where do you think she’ll go? Because if she doesn’t vote for it, it doesn’t happen.
SEN. JOE MANCHIN: Yeah, Senator Sinema is a dear friend of mine. And we’ve worked very close together on so many pieces of legislation. And she’s- she’s so involved in this legislation. When you think about it, she’s the one that really negotiated and worked very hard on getting Medicare allowing them to negotiate for lower drug prices saving $288 billion. That’s tremendous, which I support her completely on that she’s always been adamant about we’re not going to be raising taxes. And I agree with her wholeheartedly. I made very, very, very carefully evaluations that we wouldn’t raise any taxes. That was the last scrub that was done.
JOHN DICKERSON: Have you tried to lobby her?
SEN. JOE MANCHIN: No, I don’t. We don’t. I’ve never lobbied my- my colleagues on that. I just basically put the facts out try to answer questions. I’m always trying to negotiate with them if- if they want and I tried to and sometimes we don’t get there. They get frustrated. But we’re always looking at the next opportunity to improve the quality of life in America. And that’s what we’re doing.
JOHN DICKERSON: Finally, Senator, there was a vote on a bill this week that would provide health care to millions of veterans exposed to toxic fumes in burn pits during their deployments. Republicans who had previously voted for it, voted against it. Pat Toomey, Republican from Pennsylvania, who will be on who you’ve worked with extensively in your career is worried that it adds to the deficit. That’s something you care about. Does Pat Toomey have a point here?
SEN. JOE MANCHIN: Sure. Well, Pat Toomey is going to get a- he’s gonna get an amendment. He- he’ll have a vote on that. So Pat, come on, let’s go. Let’s put- put it out there, put the facts out there. Pat’s a good man and good friend of mine. I’m sorry, he’s not going to be running again. And he’s leaving the Senate because he’s been a quality valued member of the Senate. And he represented Pennsylvania extremely well. So he’s been a friend. We’re going to work through this. I haven’t seen the amendment. I’m – I’ll be briefed tomorrow morning on it and everything. But Pat is going to get his amendment and let’s see where it goes.
JOHN DICKERSON: Senator Joe Manchin, thanks for being with us. Face the Nation back in one minute. Stay with us. (link)

Windmills and solar panels don’t work and never will. (Work – I mean in the economic sense). Real contribution of these two boondoggles is about 5% when measured correctly and will never be more than that.
Also wind is down about 20% over the last decade and no one is completely sure why.
Manchurian makes me sick.
What batteries to store wind and solar farms’ power? Grid level batteries do not exist anywhere in the world. Nowhere. Grid level batteries will not exist within the next 10 years at least. I talk to advanced battery engineers everyday and have since 2010 as part of my job.
Anyone who says otherwise about grid level batteries is lying.
Having spent quite a bit of time in West By God Virginia and knowing many Mountaineers, I’d bet that the vast majority of the fine citizens of that beautiful state want nothing to do with windmills on every hill and mountainside. It’s time they vote this easily swayed moron out of office. But, before they do, please find out what “incentive” was given for his vote after standing so firm against it for a long time.
Manchin’s mug appears in Wikipedia on the definition page for “jackwagon”.

All because Republicans could not hold Georgia.
all because rino republicans purposely could not hold Georgia
Aren’t they all RINOS?
No…enemies of the people…Yes
“Would not”
They didnt want to.
Georgia election, like the presidential election, was stolen.
That kind of attitude is why people stayed home, allowing it to be stolen.
You hate the RINOs and so do I. Voting to spite themselves, which is what they don’t want, is necessary in some cases. They’d rather the Senate be 100-0 and 435-0 Democrat if they could help it.
That’s right. People didn’t like their RINO candidates so they either didn’t vote or they voted for other people, thus helping to lose the majorities.
Stop voting stupidly, people. Majorities are more important than individual candidates.
Boy I bet the hill jacks in West Virginia are excited as hell at the thought of their beautiful State going wall to wall windmills. Unlike the DH’s living in Nantucket who would absolutely not allow them off shore.
As an aside, if Kari loses in the election for Gov. Thursday in Arizona…and RINO Robson slides in, I WILL NOT vote for her when she faces the democrap. I am absolutely done voting for pretenders…Pizz on the gope. Maricopa and Pima Counties are still using dominion machines.
Same with Rubio here. Not voting for him under any circumstances.
Rubio is better than Val “Affirmative Action Defund the Police” Demmings. The problem is people like Rubio have no challengers in the primaries so they skate through .
The right majority, only.
We have a majority of lemmings now.
Reality check. Launched on September 23, 2021, this is a documentary well worth watching!
A London banker, Alexander Pohl, works for years at one of the world’s largest banks, financing big wind and solar farms, until he realizes that the so-called “green” industry is not that green. Pohl decides to move back to nature. After a search, he settles in northern Sweden. Subsequently, a large wind farm is installed in his area. He starts to unpack the players and economics, trying to understand the upside-down economics.
What happens is captured in this documentary as Alexander and Dutch documentary producer Marijn Poels travel together asking questions to understand why people are making decisions that support a fake green industry. Pohl’s efforts to bring transparency raise a few hackles in a country ordinarily known for tolerance. The result is frightening for Pohl.

Thank you. Watching.

From the movie:
“This is what happens when parasites destroy their host.”
BINGO!
Like McConnell and the RINOs didn’t want this to pass. A GOP senate would have passed the same thing but called it something else.
How come no one blames Doug Collins? He stays out of that race and Blondie wins with no runoff required
All because of the Big Steal and the Big Lie.
Congress writes the tax laws which enable corporations to reduce their tax liabilities to almost nothing and then congress acts as if the companies are cheating on their taxes when they use them.
Ironically, congress uses various deductions, exemptions, and credits, to either reward or punish certain behavior.
It’s a form of control.
By enacting a 15% minimum corporate tax, some corporations will no longer find it beneficial to modify their behavior in order to receive a deduction which is no longer of value to them.
Corporate lobbyists write those laws and buy off Congress to pass them.
Exactly. That’s why they always stutter when asked to explain what’s is the bill, because they don’t know. Gotta pass it to find out what’s in it. 🙄
It is staggering how many products stamped “Made in Canada” and “Made in Mexico’ are 100% made in China.
One of the tricks is to send smaller unmarked packages, stored inside larger crates that are marked “Made in China” then just unload the crates, and distribute the unmarked packages and claim ignorance.
In Canada and Mexico, the content can be nearly all from China, yet meet the lax standards as made in Canada of Mexico.
Also, no one is checking at the U.S. Port of Entry. Stuff just slides on through, unmarked as to country of origin.
Sundance talked a lot about this grifting of China-made parts, steel, etc, as the fatal flaw of NAFTA.
One thing AMLO did after BiteMe got in was request a suspension of the ROO (Rules of Origin) percentages, negotiated in the USMCA. They all want that skim.
And those cheap Chinese parts are still going into cars with Americans in them.
It’s just another “gubmit job”, so they don’t give a rats ass if they catch something or not.
at the time the USMCA was being developed I was hopeful that the glaringly obvious “NAFTA loophole” would be legislated out of existence. Of course they took a swipe at it and landed a glancing blow re the auto mfg sector but that’s about it. Still there – still being used and abused. One of my big disappointments in the Trump/Navarro team.
Another, better skilled in the art of the deal than most, demokrat liar. He sold us ou
tr, and worst played the thoughtful American politician, when in reality he just was harder to buy!

Manchin always caves and always sells out. Why do West Virginians keep electing him? He’s proven his duplicity over and over.
Your last sentence could be looked at two ways. “Why do” WV voters continue to elect him? Or “DO” WV voters continue to elect him?

It is amazing how people praise him as a “reasonable liberal.” He’s just another member of the uniparty. Just another piece of shite.
Embarrassing so.
Coming soon to WV….lots more dead birds.
But the nuclear powered EV’s are da bomb!!
WVA has tremendous natgas resources but the Atlantic Coast Pipeline project has been shut down and they are unable to finish the Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) which is 95 percent complete.
Manchin is chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee
What has he done?
Better get started exposing his perfidy to your fellow W. Virginians. Maybe they’ll wise up.
I bet the West Virginia’s are jumping for joy.
Yeah, yeah… Everybody is your “very good friend”. Please…
All that stands between us and devastation is one very cold winter.
Toronto now operates “warming centers”, public buildings where the poor can huddle during cold nights. I’m sure New York and Chicago do the same. Hell on earth.
Who knew that the coming of Trump and his populism, and the coming of Brexit, would drive the elite of the western world literally insane.
Panic stricken! He could ruin everything!
“ We’ve got to stop Christmas from coming!”
Everybody’s a good and dear friend how wonderfully nice for him.
Like a pit of vipers all slithering in amongst themselves.
May they not have to wait for judgment to get what’s coming to them.
Hey may not be lying about that… he probably is very good and dear friends with his fellow pond scum in DC.
The whole Republican-Democrat opposition thing is nothing more than a scripted show – put on for us pleebs. The leaders of both parties work together very well, as we all too often see in the results.
It’s the voters that want to hurt each other… the politicians – once they make the establishment – are all in together.
MANCHIN is a BIG FRAUD…but do not worry because everyone is the senate is his “GOOD FRIEND” as per himself
REGARDING BURN PITS: PACT ACT 28 July 2022 Senate Vote – Another Example of Media And Political Deceit https://creativedestructionmedia.com/news/politics/2022/07/29/pact-act-28-july-2022-senate-vote-another-example-of-media-and-political-deceit/ the bill included a “budget gimmick” that moved $400 billion over 10 years from “discretionary to the mandatory spending category”
Don’t worry… Joe has looked over the bill and made sure it’s a-otay. /sarc
I can’t believe Con-gressional approval is anywhere above 0%. They must be sure to ask the families of Con-gress critters.

Windmills Kill All the Birds, Trump Says, While Biden Advocates Phasing Out Oil (The one debate)
jm another TURNCOAT.
Well, the people of WV keep electing numbnuts nincompoop Manchin.
These morons in DC think windmills are going to work? They won’t do a dam bit of good…They can’t be kicked out of DC fast enough. So frustrating. They don’t represent anyone but themselves.
Gov’t Uniparty represent the 1%. Wind mills kill the birds bees etc. I love my hummers, robins, blue jays, wrens. I have a friendly pollinator yard with vegetable garden
, flowers, gardenia, roses Azaleas, hydrangeas, lily’s, Camellias. Windmills are horrendous ugly and useless. I am going to pray Alabama will never use them.
I keep hearing West Virginia has gone deep red… not seeing it.
I was born, raised, and live in West Virginia. I have never voted for Manchin for any office. I notice in the video that rather than wearing a United States flag/West Virginia flag lapel pin, he is wearing a United States flag/Ukraine flag lapel pin. That tells me all I need to know.
Manchin was the last Democrat politician who was still skillfully pretending to represent his voters’ interests in his state. But he has clearly cast off his costumed charade and proudly joined the Green/Grifter/Dem/RINO/WEF nation wreckers. Sinema preceded him by a few months.
Every day that passes, the USA is being significantly weakened, transformed, harmed and sold out. There is an increasingly dismal probability that the ruinous end result of the nation wrecker’s BBB policies and spending spree of 2022 will wreak so much unprecedented harm on the USA that it will soon be a struggle for many Americans just to survive. This fight to survive will take precedence over trying to hold the politicians accountable for the destruction they willingly caused. The “elite crooks” have not been held accountable for decades and this is the result.
The early signs of a return to anarchy are already painfully evident in many U.S. cities. Soros and his flunkeys, the Open Border enablers et al have been doing their part in the planned decline of America while the Democrat led Uni-party has also been doing its part from the heights of the Capitol itself. This historic building is being portrayed by the corrupt Jan. 6th Show trial performers as a paragon of virtue and magnificence when it is actually the most pernicious source of America’s present demise thanks to the majority of Reps and Senators that have been infecting it; especially since 2020.
The beautiful landscapes of our country are being forever changed, as well as the habitat for God’s creatures.
So Flim Flam Manchin helps KILL the main industry and energy source in West Virginia, COAL, to be replaced by WINDMILLS made in CANADA and MEXICO….but the Canadians and Mexicans did not elect Manchin, the people of West Virginia did……..SUUUUUUUUUUUCKERS!!!
In my opinion, if they don’t keep their word, which they won’t, he’ll primary Brandon. That’s what I think. One Democrat off the board for the Senate. But could he win a Primary against him? My mind says no, but Brandon’s numbers are really bad.
Windmills have absolutely blighted Iowa and every other state where the state government has sold its soul. Every Representative and Senator and the VP and the P(OS) should have windmills put on their properties, preferably in front of the windows that have the best views.
Oh my God I hate these people. In their stated effort to save the planet they are actually ruining it more quickly.
Me, too.
i am fuming. I love our birds. I love watching and feeding them. They love my yard. Although we
stay into with the little smart mocking birds. They love to peck tomatoes. I have to pick and cover up. This is environmental destruction!!
Another reason to vote for all of your GOP candidates in November: to stop twits like Manchin from having so much control. Why the heck is this guy the power-holder now? I’ll tell you why. Because stupid voters let those majorities go to the Dems. GET THEM BACK. Manchin will then be a nobody Dem in the minority party. And Chuck and Nancy will be knocked out of their spots.
Wind Mills are a total scam and a chess game for profit. Wake up people. Launched on September 23, 2021, this is a documentary well worth watching!

West Virginia threatens to bar big banks, Blackrock over perceived fossil fuel boycotts
Pete Schroeder
Tue, June 14, 2022 at 11:51 AM·2
West Virginia is one of several states, including Texas, to adopt or consider new laws aimed at punishing banks they believe to be discriminating against such industries via ESG policies. Moore has the authority to bar banks from state business under a new state law he backed, which the legislature passed in March.
“At a time when energy demand is skyrocketing and consumers are bearing the brunt of generationally high inflation, it makes absolutely no sense for financial institutions to cut off capital and financing to these legal, profitable industries simply because they don’t align with their radical social and political agendas,” said Moore in a statement when West Virginia passed the new law in March.
“This law now puts the banking sector on notice: If you refuse to do business with our people, we won’t give you our people’s business.”

Coal Miner Confronts Hillary, Gets Her To Apologize For Saying She’d Put Him Out Of Work
by Guest Post
May 3, 2016
Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton apologized Monday for saying in March that she would put coal mines “out of business” after being confronted by a former West Virginia coal miner.
The former secretary of state called the comments a “misstatement” during her coal country campaign ahead of Kentucky’s May 17 Democratic primary election. Clinton is making stops in West Virginia, Kentucky, and Ohio to pitch her plan for making coal states green energy states.

WVA is a beautiful state. So sad to think it will have those stinking windmills. I hope the Hillbillies of Scotch and Irish descent will knock ’em down.
Manchin and the BBB, Intel+Microsoft and ESG, and SEIA in NYC
There was a lot of optimism about the BBB Act, ITC, solar potential in NY and more at the Solar Finance, Tax, & Buyers Seminar in New York — lawyers, CPAs, developers, and solar politics.
March 31, 2022<————–
John Fitzgerald Weaver
Next on stage was a group led by SEIA’s Erin Duncan, who expressed optimism over the signing of the Build Back Better (BBB) legislation — specifically, on the subject of solar construction (along with direct pay) and manufacturing tax credits.
Duncan’s opinion was shared by everyone on stage. James Dennis reminded the audience that West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin had recently suggested that the BBB legislation must be finalized by July 4th so that there is time for it to be signed before the August recess — in time for Congress to go home and shake hands.

Please note: the ESG policies here
Dems have got 5 months left to hard push the Transition. After that they don’t care. The plan was always in place.
Wind farms worked really well in TX, I am sure if they show up in WV, they will work as well.
Noticed a local energy company commercial yesterday. Asking, do you know where electricity comes from while showing power lines, lights on in homes, etc. Well, let it be known, according to the energy company, electricity comes from the sun, from solar panels, from water and of course from huge ugly windmills. No mention about the fossil fuel it requires to power these money making gadgets, that won’t work without wind and will freeze in winter, clutter the landscape and ruin wildlife and human alike. They are going full tilt with their bbb.
Windmills in heavily wooded and mountainous WV? Really! C’mon, man! They barely work on the plains.
Something you will never find, a profitable windmill.
If it wasn’t for free government money no one would be building them or buying them.
Man Chin….nah….AS% HAT…Yes Sir….
As, instant by instant, I hear all of these people endlessly speak, I hear …
“Psy-Ops”
… delivered in support of …
“Graft!”
Need I ask more of any such people?
I’m so sick of these people selling out America and the American citizens
When will this sh!t stop?
When we refuse to allow this BS. Money drives all the cars on this train.
The majority caved to vaxing, lockdowns, not rationalizing they can’t throw all of us in jail.
West Virginia needs windmills with a treasure trove of coal, just like Kentucky needs more flooding, and just like DC needs more Swamp creatures.
WV already has enough of those ugly bird killing machines from China. China has already purchased the US and it won’t be long before we are called the US of China. All these traitors in DC and NY think they will still be in charge when China officially takes over. They are too stupid to realize that China hates anyone who is not Chinese.
Oh you ‘Mericans, so picky….
Manchin made a deal with a leading devil.
He’ll have to get himself out of the quagmire he’s in.
Any talk from Republicans abiut reversing this nonsense? Didn’t think so.
