ME AND YOU AND A DOG NAMED ‘BUILD BACK BETTER’: There’s A ‘Build Back Better’ Song, and It’s as Bad as You Can Imagine.

FINGERS CROSSED: Bye bye, BBB?

Ahead of President Joe Biden signing an infrastructure bill into law on Monday, Vice President Kamala Harris said, “Now, this bill, as significant as it is, as historic as it is, is part one of two.”

This is wishful thinking. Progressives have gotten played on supporting the bill, known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework. They reneged on their vow to not vote for the BIF unless the larger social spending bill came up for a vote at the same time.

I predict that while BIF is now law, the Build Back Better Act will fail to pass Congress.

With BIF enacted, neither Sen. Manchin nor Sen. Sinema has any incentive to support the $1.75 trillion bill that would drastically expand the welfare state. The progressives gave up the leverage they had in terms of votes in the House of Representatives. Manchin or Sinema can now safely come out in opposition to BBB.

Even before BIF passed the House, months after the Senate had done so, Manchin already expressed reservations about the BBB. His concerns included paid family leave provisions and how the BBB would affect inflation. And, right now, inflationary concerns are only growing. Meanwhile, Sinema has come out in opposition to certain tax increases, limiting how revenue could be raised under BBB.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: Democrats Still Lying About Ferguson Seven Years Later. “Democrats are allowed to lie about Ferguson with impunity. Yes, we’re writing about it here at conservative media outlets but it’s a safe bet that The New York Times or The Washington Post won’t be exhibiting any curiosity about this latest mendacious word barf from the always execrable Rep. Bush. She could start telling stories about being attacked by a ship full of space alien invaders who all look like Donald Trump and there would be shrugs all around in the MSM.”
