What do you think he got...? Or what do they have on him...?
Chucky said he would bring up a vote for a Manchin wanted West Virginia pipeline. Many feel he is being fooled. Some think he should run for president.

That makes no sense. But nothing you say ever does.

I don’t think that’s completely correct. The pipeline is mostly complete, but there are a few permits and other issues holding it up. I believe Manchin was told if he cooperated, the administration would lubricate the process. If he didn’t they would delay or stop it.

I do think the Natural Gas pipeline, constructed with the proper safeguards, is a good thing. West Virginia needs jobs that are not connected to coal mining. The nation needs energy, not connected to coal mining.

Your losing it, as I agree 100% with that statement. Thinking all clean electric is the near future, like Democrats are forcing down everyone's throats in places like California, is a disaster waiting to happen. Cutting out natural gas will triple the need for electricity in most instances, due to the fact using electricity for central heat, cooking, and heating water is very inefficient.
I wonder if you accidentally said the right thing. I would think someone like Gavin Newsome would be your hero, and what you said defied him.

Helping Drug Users Survive, Not Abstain: ‘Harm Reduction’ Gains Federal Support


Congress has appropriated funds specifically for programs that distribute clean syringes and other supplies meant to protect users.


Such programs have long come under attack for enabling drug use, but President Biden has made expanding harm-reduction efforts one of his drug policy priorities — the first president to do so.



I know people who are alcoholics, and I don’t buy them a bottle of whiskey. And I know people who want to kill themselves, and I don’t buy them a bullet for their gun.

I have a question. If companies simply pass the cost of new taxes on to consumers, why do they spend millions of dollars lobbying against them and even more millions supporting candidates who will vote in the companies favor. Why not save all that money.

I think the answer is obvious.

You idiot.
When that money goes to taxes, it is 90% wasted.
When it dosen't go to taxes, it is churned to create more business and more wealth and allows for investment, the opposite of taxes.

I just recognize that we don’t currently have the infrastructure to go to 100% renewable energy. Despite what you think, the Biden administration recognizes that too.

I hear a lot of nonsense here that Democrats or liberals or however you want to categorize them, want to destroy the oil industry so clean renewable energy sources can take over. That is wrong. We want renewable energy to take over so we no longer need the oil companies. But we understand we need them until the transition is complete.

You don't get it, do you? Democrats are just trying to keep part of their voting base alive. They are actually delusional to the point where they think
there are no such things as evil people and losers. Just people that were dealt a bad hand.

Yes it’s obvious you toad! Every time you raise your price (for any reason) you shrink your customer base.

Spoken like a true government employee who’s never issued a paycheck or run a business.

Stay in your own lane you socialist POS

Mostie had no idea Biden is spending billions on his "harm reduction" program. If Biden were truly interested in protecting addicts he'd shut the border down. A majority of the product flows in thru Mexico, something he is aware of.



Makes me think Biden and his cronies are silent partners in the illegal drug trade.
