They knowingly helped the Russian install Trump in 2016 (they quietly paid a $5 billion fine)
and now they are helping to stop progress for the American people and the fight for protection
of the earth's climate.

"Sen. Joe Manchins reelection campaign raised nearly $300,000 from corporate political action committees and executives days after the conservative Democrat said he would oppose President Joe Bidens $1.75 trillion social and climate spending package, according to a CNBC analysis of Federal Election Commission filings."
Joe is 78 and he will be 80 or 81 in 2024 so he is not running again. So the question is where is that money going?
