      Wait a second...you're telling me that Jeff Stein completely mischaracterized a direct quote in a way that made a Dem look bad? Well, this has certainly never happened before.https://twitter.com/sahilkapur/status/1347621689249689600 …

      As Manchin’s office tells it, his “absolutely not” quote was meant as a response to whether $2,000 checks should be the #1 priority now; he’s not with Schumer on that part, but doesn’t promise to vote against more direct cash either.

      Sounds to me like a walk-back or a misunderstanding for Manchin. Either way it wouldn’t be the first time.

      Read the literal transcript, Jeet. Then admit you were wrong.https://twitter.com/Wilson__Valdez/status/1347638162684829696?s=19 …

      Yup. Here's the transcript they just released. As expected, the "absolutely not" quote was about the checks being priority #1. Jeff Stein (willfully) "misinterpreted it" again. https://twitter.com/Wilson__Valdez/status/1347627975743778816 … pic.twitter.com/tsITsmuy16

      Because this has moved markets, here are @Sen_JoeManchin's exact words: "I'm not for sending a check to people who already have checks." $2K checks too big: "That's another $400B dollars."
