President Joe Biden is running out of patience as Sen. Joe Manchin continues to drag his feet on supporting the party’s domestic spending legislation.
Tensions are boiling over as discussions about finishing Democrats’ $1.7 trillion domestic spending bill drag on between President Joe Biden and Sen. Joe Manchin.
The legislation looks increasingly likely to stall over the impending holiday break, prompting Biden himself to bemoan the slow pace. And Manchin (D-W.Va.) grew frustrated on Wednesday when questioned about whether he opposes a provision in the bill to extend the expanded child tax credit, deeming those queries “bullshit” and denying that he wants to end the $300 monthly check many families receive for children.
