Opinion Headline: “Joe Manchin’s ‘help wanted’ ad: 10 reasonable Republicans”

Sunday, June 6th, 2021

Headline: “Fox News’ Chris Wallace Confronts Joe Manchin Over ‘Being Naive’ About Bipartisan Cooperation”

Headline: “Manchin flexes muscle in 50-50 Senate”

Joe Manchin’s extortionate power
In wielding his vote makes me glower.

With threats to withhold
Key votes, hoping Biden will cower.
