Senator Kyrsten Sinema delivered a tough ultimatum to President Joe Biden at a private meeting on infrastructure. Sinema also objected to drug pricing reforms that are already struggling to make it through the House of Representatives. Sen. Joe Manchin has suggested pausing discussions on the $3.5 trillion spending package until 2022 as the House gets ready to vote on a bipartisan deal next week. Ted Cruz praised Manchin and Sinema for ‘standing up to the crazies in their party.’ Democrats are unlikely to get immigration reform measures in the $3.5 trillion budget proposal after the Senate parliamentarian ruling. Apparently, Trump is looking for a challenger to depose Mitch McConnell.
