Manchin says he will vote no on Biden's social spending bill

Democratic Senator Joe Manchin said he could not vote for President Biden's social spending plan, which could doom the bill. CBS News senior White House and political correspondent Ed O'Keefe, CBS News congressional correspondent Nikole Killion and Wall Street Journal Capitol Hill reporter Siobhan Hughes join CBSN's "Red & Blue" anchor Elaine Quijano with the latest.

What they did to the dislike button is the same thing they did with the votes.

[kevinjohn]

Imagine an Adminstration so weak that they have to call on their “Tech” friends to get the dislike 👎 button removed from YouTube.

Honest hard-working people are tired of this administration's constant enemas!

[connielynnchadwick]

IF the bill was good and right. It would have passed.

[michaelcole]

I never realized this because I don't watch this but it really is biased media. What ever happened to America first. From a war veteran. I'm out!

[mikeallred]

Thank GOD we still have real men with BALLS

[Nate-dngx]

why is massive public spending even a consideration during a period of high inflation?

[raypotts]

Senator Manchin saved our country Thank you West Virginia

[GrandTourer]

I don't care how rich he is, this bill will not give a cent to any of the middle class and will cause much harder inflation. Why would anyone vote for it?

[adamk]

The truth is there are a number of other mod dems who are happy he is the one taking the lead hear so they don't have to take a position or can vote yes and can have it both ways knowing it won't pass.

[michaelhinchliffe]

Joe you are one of the most sensible cleverest politician who is protecting the American people god bless you don't let them bully you

[sylviewalker]

West Virginia is super great place to live, massive job security and lovely representatives that are doing so well they thrive on 220K Houseboat/yacht when working out of state. Right!

Manchin is probably the only one in his party to read it.

[martinhonan]

Joe put country first. Thank you sir and Merry Christmas America.

[janereams]

Awesome, a politician who looks out for his constituents

[CVT]

Manchin has made himself a superhero to the American people.

[richietavarez]

Wow… who could of seen this coming. After months of Manchin saying he would vote NO on the garbage bill, I’m shocked

[based_yeoman]

The way the white house attacked Manchin afterwards will come back to haunt them.

[annmarie]

Good for manchin. He’s doing exactly what he was elected to do. Take care of his people. In doing so he’s helping the American people. You can’t keep printing money without higher inflation.

[hue]

Stand your ground Joe Manchin. The nation of you need a true leader like you more than ever. Inflation is a real thing ladies and gentlemen regardless if we like it or not.
