Manchin pulls support for Biden's $1.75 trillion social spending plan

Senator Joe Manchin announced Sunday that he will not be supporting President Biden's social spending plan, Build Back Better. WIth only 50 Democrats in the Senate, the party needed every party member to support the plan, meaning his refusal to support could be a fatal blow to the bill as it is written. CBS News senior White House and political correspondent Ed O'Keefe joins Lana Zak to discuss the update.

IMAGINE HOW STRONG OUR COUNTRY WOULD BE IF CONGRESS SPENT THEIR DAYS WORKING FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ELECTED THEM INSTEAD OF THE PEOPLE WHO BUY THEM.

[NashHinton]

I'm all for cutting spending. Let's start with Congress by placing them on minimum wage considering how useless they are.

[patsully]

Thank You! We can not afford this bill.

[rororidley]

He got what he wanted in the infrastructure bill and now he’s like F the people

[jamesbcrombie]

Great example of biased media in this title. One might think Joe Manchin refused to support a $1.75 trillion bill. We need real journalism to return.

THANK GOD! PRAISE THE LORD! Thank you Joe. Some sanity finally.

1.75 trillion is actually 175 billion a year. It's an insult after the trillions given to the rich.

[Mike-lvvs]

2017 tax cut for the rich adds 8 trillion to the debt over 10 years that's okay. Military budget 7 trillion over 10 years that's okay. 1.75 trillion for the middle class over 10 years that's impossible. This country is sick.

Great to see this scam of a bill crash and burn

Child credit??? How do you have children when you can't even afford yourself? Knowing that you are suffering and you have children to come to this world to suffer? Disgusting. These people should be arrested. I'm not paying taxes for idiots.

What is wrong with this guy is he really a democrat or faking to be one. Vote him out of office no way he needs to go.

[chavachang]

He is crazy old man. Need vote out for Sanator. He like to be Sanator but doesn’t care a bout people in the United State and his people who vote him.

Remember this when you’re driving over a bridge and the road falls into the water
this has happened before in Connecticut and other places

[spotlight]

Wonder how many bags, he gets
💰💰💰💰 He is representing his own greed while more people fall into poverty from lack of jobs.

[jayyearwood]

He can't explain it because he won't.
West Virginia needs to kick him out.

[jamc]

Throw him out of the democrat party .... NOW!
With or without him, doesnt change anything. does it ?

[liseburgess]

Joe Manchin should be voted out of the Senate. He is not working for the people who elected him, but for the coal industry which makes lots of money for

[DjFico]

Don't worry senator..you are doing the right thing and that is why the people in West Virginia love you and respect you...and you will be reelected again and again....

[vonjunzt]
