It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.

Manchin's Rude Awakening - Own Party Betrays Him After He Caved on Inflation Reduction Act

In order to secure Manchin’s vote, President Joe Biden and Democratic leaders promised to facilitate the approval of a gas pipeline in West Virginia. This would require passage of legislation that would “overhaul the permitting process for energy infrastructure,” according to The American Prospect, a liberal website.

Apparently, progressives in the House are not keen on supporting a measure that “could undercut the IRA’s down payment on clean energy by accelerating approval for energy projects that could ramp up U.S. fossil fuel production and exports of natural gas”…

House Democrats were … angry over being excluded from the negotiations with Manchin.

Thus, they do not plan to honor the agreement.

California Democratic Rep. Jared Huffman, for instance, said he refuses to be “steamrolled into a bunch of fossil fuel giveaways just because Manchin cut a deal in a closed room with Chuck Schumer,” the [Washington] Times reported.

"Own Party Betrays Him After He Caved on Inflation Reduction Act."
Just par for the course with the radical left who espouse the communist motto "The end justifies the means." They will (and do) lie, cheat, steal and implement whatever dastardly behavior they think will accomplish their nefarious goals.

Manchin won't be able to secure election to the position of dog-catcher in West Virginia after the economic devastation he has caused.

No honor amongst thieves.
