Yes. Manchin is advocating for what really amounts to a Go Slow approach to phasing out coal. Not saying that’s right, just that that’s what he’s doing here.

They were just waiting for an excuse . . .

GOP negotiators didn’t get a headsup before Chuck Schumer set a Wednesday deadline on their bipartisan infrastructure deal, a GOP source familiar with the matter said. And now Republicans say that if the bill text isn’t done by then, then they will vote against moving ahead.

Oh, this will never be OT, at least until the end of the '22 elections–especially for these two.

He’s old, and he already was feeling out post-senate money making opportunities… he should just go out in a blaze of glory, doing what he knows in his heart of hearts is correct.

Having been to coal mines all over the planet, Fernie and Tumbler Ridge BC, Gillette Wyoming, Yakutia Russia, Coal Strip Montana and more; the problem is that for every miner there are dozens of folks outside of those mines that depend on them for their jobs. From power transmission specialists to grocery clerks, they depend on those mines.
But I have to agree in principle. When peering into the two mile long, mile wide and 1/2 mile deep maw of the world’s largest open pit in Yakutia in 1986, the little voice in my head said "Uh oh! Good for cooties, bad for apex predators (humans).

Coal Miner Zombie is the third and final unique zombie in Steam Ages in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2. When he encounters a plant for the first time, he will destroy the plant by pouring coal on it, making the tile unable to be planted on until the coal disappears. When he is defeated or after he pours his coal, he will leave his wheelbarrow on his tile which acts as an obstacle, similar to Surfer Zombie. However, the coal cannot be destroyed, unlike the wheelbarrow.

Manchin doesn’t want to walk back all the good coal jobs created by Trump.
Oh, wait.

Because the actions of the last several decades has proven that the US Senate is just stock full of leaders. I’ve never seen a group of so many cowards in a position of leadership my entire life.

yesterday, for example, [Manchin] expressed hesitancy about any language in a bill that might indicate the U.S. was moving away from fossil fuels
It’s either move away from fossil fuels or stick our kids with runaway global warming.
I happen to love my kid more than I love coal and gasoline.

Most – maybe all – of those saved during the Great Depression in what we now call “green” jobs are gone. When I was a kid I heard their stories. My dad’s first job was literally breaking rocks on some flood-control project. Later, he painted public buildings. $7 per week, but his family could eat:
Coffee $0.30
Hershey Bar $0.05
Sirloin Steak (per pound) $0.29
Chicken (per pound) $0.22
Milk (per quart) $0.10
Eggs (per dozen) $0.29
Bread (20 ounce loaf) $0.05
