It's a Nice Club. You Don't Belong.

If it's not already obvious to you, YOU don't belong to The Club.

The 2,700 pages of the so-called bipartisan “infrastructure” bill released Sunday night by Breitbart News show the commission Sen. Joe Manchin’s (D-WV) wife sits on will receive double the funding if passed, in a way to possibly ensure Manchin’s swing vote to secure the bill.

The legislation was written in a way to greatly expand the funding and power for the Appalachian Regional Commission, where Gayle Manchin sits as the co-chair.

Earlier in the year, President Joe Biden nominated Gayle to be the co-chair of the Appalachian Regional Commission. This commission is an economic development partnership involving the federal government and 13 states....

 There are--probably--several hundred other individuals who are perfectly qualified to be co-chair of the Appalachian Regional Commission.

But they're not members of The Club.
