Biden 'Ally & Friend' Hammers First Nail Into Administration's Coffin

In a CBS interview, Virginia Democrat Senator Tim Kaine confesses that Biden's Build Back Better agenda as we understand it is doomed. Although, he thinks that key items within the legislation will survive.

Former 2016 running mate to Hillary Clinton and survivor of traffic on the I95 had this to state on Face the Nation to host Margaret Brennan.

"Even the White House economist is using the past tense when referring to Build Back Better. It's dead. You don't have the votes in the Senate," joked Brennan in introducing the subject.

Here's what Senator Kaine had to announce:

"Yeah I don't agree with you, Margaret. You're right that it's dead, the most recent version of it is not going to happen. But if you look at the core of the bill – I think the core – is education and workforce, and things like reducing childcare and education expenses, workforce training, and then support for the workforce in areas like healthcare."

"There are other pieces of the bill that are more controversial, I still believe we're going to find a core of this bill (whatever we call it) we're going to find a core of the bill and pass it, and it will deal directly with some of these inflation concerns," he summed.

It's not only the view of CBS that Build Back Better legislation is seemingly dead. A Bloomberg reporter cited it in his question for Press Secretary Jen Psaki last Thursday, when asking her why the Biden Administration is apparently at an impasse.

Late last year, the Biden White House had media issues with proper messaging as to why Build Back Better had to be approved in DC. The President alleged in mid-2021 to have "overwhelmingly" amounts of public backing for Build Back Better. Though high-profile names like Elon Musk had publicly denounced it towards the end.

The $1.2 trillion USD infrastructure bill passed by Congress last year was for a time held up by being paired alongside the $3.5 trillion Build Back Better legislation. The Biden White House reluctantly acknowledged its price tag.

A point of interest for Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia, he was able to hold the whole thing up when it came to last votes, given the circumstances of the 50 - 50 split of the U.S. Senate.

When the debate in Congress pivoted to the problem of voting rights afterward, both Senators Manchin and Sinema stood by keeping the filibuster rule in place that needs 60 votes for bills to pass through the chamber.
