The only bright spot here is that both Democrats and Republicans don't like Manchin, and hopefully his ego won't let him go down in third party flames.
Ana de Alba has been elevated to the nation’s largest appellate court a little over a year after becoming the first Hispanic female trial judge in her California district.
De Alba, the daughter of farm workers who immigrated from Mexico, was confirmed on Monday, 48-43, to the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
Like McConnell, no one will miss him when he's gone, although some will seek his grave for a full bladder visit. Like Rand Paul, nobody will remember him save for his intensely jailable daughter.
"Myopic thinking" is a very very very undeservedly nice way of saying it.
"Both parties are the same" is a straight-up fascist-enabling lie that no one who hasn't been living in the Marianas Trench since Watergate could possibly believe, and every three minutes brings new proof.
Speaking of fascist-enabling lies that no one who hasn't been living in the Marianas Trench since Watergate could possibly believe, there's also the idea that Republican-controlled state legislatures' voter suppression efforts have anything at all to do with protecting "the integrity of elections."
Seems like one party in particular is a veritable font of these sorts of fascist-enabling lies. If only there was a word that could adequately describe that ethos...
So what Manchin is saying is instead of raising living standards in West Virginia (which he failed to do after 40 years in state and federal office) he wants to lower the living standards of the other 47 states to that of West Virginia. States with better educational outcomes, lower poverty rates, higher incomes, and generally less reliance on federal assistance.
Imagine if, now that he’s announced he’s not running for re-election, he actually DID things that would make life better for his constituents. Like the expanded child tax credit, and protecting voting and reproductive rights. I know, I know, it’s clear he’s not done with the attention that being in politics brings, so he can’t be arsed to help anyone but himself.

He is not a centrist. I know that window has been shifted right, but Concerned Susan is more centrist than Joe is, and she is not one either.
Biden is a centrist. Machin is center right, at best.
In my mind a centrist is just a contrarian who thinks he’s smarter than either side.
He was the only Dem to vote against Ana de Alba for the 9th Circuit. Yesterday, after he announced he’s retiring. Terrible to the end.

My daddy’s about the same age as Manchin. I'm gonna ask him to beat Manchin up.
Juck Foe Manchin. And juck Fill Stein as well. Bastids.
My god he's full of shit.
"...which of the two parties actively promotes chaos and has a free-range Marjorie Taylor Greene."
Entirely TOO free-range.

The Bipartisan Party always delivers, and this is what they deliver.
