This weekend, Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia said he’s a “no” on the “Build Back Better” bill, meaning that a large chunk of President Biden’s agenda is, at least for now, dead in the Senate.
This morning, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez showed that she’s clearly upset with Manchin:
“An egregious breach of the trust of the President” @AOC on Joe Manchin rejecting Build Back Better adding “It’s time to take the kid gloves off”. @Morning_Joe

"I think what Sen. Manchin did yesterday represents such an egregious breach of trust of the President," Rep. Ocasio-Cortez on Sen. Manchin's remarks that he won't support the Build Back Better bill.
"It's an outcome we had warned about."

AOC: “What we really need to do is crack down on the Senate, which acts like an old boys’ club…”

Something tells us that Manchin’s far more concerned about what the voters in West Virginia think than a left-wing congresswoman from New York.
That seems a bit threatening. What does @AOC plan to do to Manchin? https://t.co/qJlYwVCF1M

AOC is using an interesting strategy:
Please keep going. I hope they spend every day attacking the guy they need to accomplish anything in the Senate. It’s really a brilliant strategy. https://t.co/66077SKfEW

Dems like AOC don’t seem to really be thinking this through.
She's free to primary Schumer. https://t.co/B5pDfS8nkH

Oh, please!
She should do that.
