Democratic Unity On Infrastructure Bigger News Than Bipartisan ‘Framework’

Rachel Maddow makes the case that despite the hoopla about the bipartisan compromise infrastructure bill reaching an agreed upon framework, it's a bigger deal that all of the key Democratic players agree on the two-bill plan for moving forward on infrastructure. Rep. Pramila Jayapal, chair of the House Progressive Caucus points out that the dual bill format was a progressive idea.

  1. Where were the conservative senators? Oh wait… you said Republican. Yeah, come on out Romney.

    1. Mitts always acting like he has some sense. But yet he still calls himself a Republican after the busted but whole GOP has disgraced themselves.

  2. US ANTIQUE INFRASTRUCTURE: “The eyes of history are on this appointment.” – Buttigeig..
    1964 Japan’s first bullet trains were put in service and the the first Beatles album was released.
    1998 China started the construction of 36,000km of high speed railways and high speed trains.
    2021 US still has NO high speed railway and NO high speed trains. When was America great ?

  3. The White House needs restructuring! Our government is so dysfunctional! It’s more like a school house sand box.

    1. If you don’t like our White House, feel free to go back to your country, we won’t miss you.

  4. Can’t achieve true “unity” until those pesky deplorables give up their guns and God .C’mon man.

    1. either your part of society or your a Icesolationist… and I am for those who don’t want be part of society and want to live outside of that form… I am a republican / Libertarian / Conservative , have been for along time now … in the Icesolationst form , and we Republicans have won!!! We can now see what it looks like to have a country for the last 50 plus years under a republican senate / congress and excutive office rule our nation… ( on the most part) Things we believe in as Republicans ( and I still believe in these ideas) lower taxes , smaller government , less red tape – in business small & large , a fair market, goverment should not be taking care of the poor , not that I am against the poor but the people should take care of its people … or at least that is what my grandfather (that raised me) said what a Libertarians beleived / Republicans … Now since the 60’s I have lived and thought this way ( I like talk Radio & I believed Fox news broadcasts ) ( side bar never understood why Colmes needed to be ugly… until later on in my life) back to my point…. by my Libertarian friends in power I can see how we have arrived as a nation… I see “less Red tape”” means greedy & the powerful to be above the law in every aspect of American life … Fast food / FDA/ goods we buy / food we buy peroid … less red tape mains more of these thing go without any regulations …. same goes for Banks , No Regulations…. Small Government mains the the large corporations can focus on paying off just a few folks to get more… Here is way to prove we won… Supreme Court vote before 2016 election ( 2014) that large worldly corporations could spend as much as they wanted to in the elections to support heir canidate , now I will remind you about the wealth that has 98% of the world money …. Money in a capitalist society is pure power without regulations and we allow off shore acounts so the don’t pay taxes …. the poor isn’t being taken care of by the people… Our Supreme Court & Government has been bought and paid for…. on bothsides…. YEAH !!! WE WON!!!! It just doesn’t look like the way I thought it would… at a young age I had no idea that perception was not reality… Without the golden rule / or the thought of what is good for mankind concept. WE are in big trouble…. I will not vote for less taxes or less regulations in my later years of my life… I will Pray for our Governement to go back to the people ” WE THE PEOPLE CONCEPT”

    2. @Gary Ray So, are you saying the Demoncraps are for the people? You’re highly mistaken if you think that’s the case.

    3. @David Judd that is not what I said..I said both sides are owned by Big Corporations and it is important to get over-sight committees / red tape to protect the people and bring our supreme court back to the people side of matters…. .thanks for asking…

  5. Any bets on whether those five Republicans who just agreed to this bipartisan infrastructure bill will actually VOTE for this bill?

  6. Let’s see where it goes from here.
    We can only hope the Dems stand firm and get theirs passed.
    Manchin and Sinema are a disgrace; they should resign or turn Republican.
    Thank you for the update

  7. I am so glad to hear Joe Manchin is finally on board here, but the two word combination “Conservative Democrat” should be seen as an oxymoron, and really a thing of the past also…

  8. I am terribly sorry, but that picture of a bunch of rich old white people and one Loose Cannon Karen does little to inspire confidence.

  9. There’s no point to filibuster, the founders would be horrified. Trust our vote. If we elect a GOP majority, without gerrymandering, then so be it. If Dems are elected to Senate then so be it. Why have majority wins elections, if the minority rules the Senate?
