Breaking News: The heart of President Biden's climate agenda — a push to replace coal- and gas-fired power plants — is said to likely be cut from the budget bill because Senator Joe Manchin opposes it.

God bless Joe Manchin

This has always been their strategy... they will get what they schemed for behind the scenes. They don't want the climate stuff. It was just fodder.

It means Joe is negotiating a deal, which is NOT good, but it means that shite the Dems promised their special interests is being tossed, which IS good.


I'm hoping the window-lickers on the left want to kill the whole bill if they aren't getting the full Green New Deal with it.

Coal is dead anyway. In WV and elsewhere. AEP was one of the largest coal fired utilities in the country. No more. Solar and wind. They are at the government trough. Mancin knows it. His daughter needs that multimillion dollar pharmaceutical job. Mancin is a joke. Sinema to fold too n

Just watch.

I cannot imagine that progressives are okay with this. Hopefully the Dems can't find the votes.

If that's all it takes to get him to vote for it, then he's a feckless loser.

I don't believe it would pass the House without the climate garbage.

This legislation matters not in regards to coal for electricity (in the industry)

Coal is dying as electric utilities are moving toward net zero carbon goals and will be minimal by 2030 in the SE - where some day you’ll likely have new ng combined cycle with carbon capture on the backend and some existing retrofitted

All while China is building a new coal plant a minute and India has zero time for climate concerns. Yet we have to suffer even though they aren't being held to any standard and account for 2/5th's of the world's population.

Its clown world.
