Because the $3.5 trillion bill is opposed by Republicans, Democrats are trying to enact it through a budgetary process called reconciliation, solely with Democratic support. But this would require a \u2018yes\u2019 vote from every Senate Democrat, and two of them, Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin, say they won\u2019t support it unless the price comes down,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/budget-reconciliation-bill-build-back-better-act\/\">CBS News<\/a> noted on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, Sanders <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/bernie-sanders-urges-house-democrats-to-vote-against-infrastructure-bill-unless-reconciliation-package-passed-cites-existential-threat\/\">stated<\/a>, \u201cLet\u2019s be crystal clear. If the bipartisan infrastructure bill is passed on its own on Thursday, this will be in violation of an agreement that was reached within the Democratic Caucus in Congress. More importantly, it will end all leverage that we have to pass a major reconciliation bill. That means there will be no serious effort to address the long-neglected crises facing the working families of our country, the children, the elderly, the sick and the poor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt also means that Congress will continue to ignore the existential threat to our country and planet with regard to climate change,\u201d he continued. \u201cI strongly urge my House colleagues to vote against the bipartisan infrastructure bill until Congress passes a strong reconciliation bill.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sanders\u2019 history vis-vis the United States includes this tidbit, courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/opinion\/2020\/02\/10\/bernie-sanders-radical-past-donald-trump-attack-fodder-column\/4706779002\/\">USA Today<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"12\">\n<p><em>When Iranian&nbsp;Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and his minions seized dozens of American hostages in 1979 and held 52 of them&nbsp;for 444 days, Americans across the spectrum were united in outrage and in seeking their safe return.&nbsp;Sanders, at the time, was a backer of an obscure Marxist-Leninist political party that pledged support for the Iranian theocracy and defended the hostage-taking. In line with Iranian propaganda, the party alleged that the captured diplomats and other U.S. Embassy workers&nbsp;were likely CIA agents.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Daily Wire\u2019s Matt Walsh once wrote of Sanders\u2019 sympathy for communist regimes that Sanders \u201cis not some stupid college student who champions communism because he has no idea what happened in the world prior to 2005. He lived through much of the 1900s and very well knows that it was a century bathed in the bloodshed by communist governments. He knows that communism very recently killed 100 million people and that it continues to add to the body count even today. Yet he advocates for communist policies and wishes to see the great evil of the 20th century reborn in the 21st.
