Joe Biden has a new enemy in Congress.
Senator Joe Manchin (D-W.V.) has been on a mission since he got duped into supporting Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act.
Since then, Manchin has been calling out Joe Biden on just about everything, especially when it comes to renewable energy.
Revenge Tour
Manchin’s latest rant came down when Biden vetoed legislation to block his ESG order.
The rule will force investments to back the Democrat agenda.
There is serious worry that this rule is going to take retirement accounts in the wrong direction.
Manchin stated, “This Administration continues to prioritize their radical policy agenda over the economic, energy and national security needs of our country, and it is absolutely infuriating.”
Manchin continued, “West Virginians are under increasing stress as we continue to recover from a once in a generation pandemic, pay the bills amid record inflation, and face the largest land war in Europe since World War II.
“The Administration’s unrelenting campaign to advance a radical social and environmental agenda is only exacerbating these challenges.
“This ESG rule will weaken our energy, national and economic security while jeopardizing the hard-earned retirement savings of 150 million West Virginians and Americans.
“Despite a clear and bipartisan rejection of the rule from Congress, President Biden is choosing to put his Administration’s progressive agenda above the well-being of the American people.”
Sounds to me like Manchin is setting the table to try to hold his seat since he sold everyone out for most of the last four years.
