The bill was tossed out of the Senate: Senate votes 51-49 against starting debate on bipartisan infrastructure bill
51-49 sounds close, right? No, as the post highlights, 60 votes were needed.
Now the spin doctors are at it:
- Senator Joe Manchin says ... We have made significant progress in bipartisan infrastructure proposal negotiations
- US President Biden was asked if a deal will be done .... "Yes we will"
The only thing missing from this farce is the boatloads of soybeans à la the China trade deal phase 1
