Leaked recordings reveal Joe Manchin’s real thoughts on filibuster and Jan 6 commission

In a private call this Monday that was obtained by The Intercept, Joe Manchin (D-WV) talked to major political donors during a meeting organized by the group No Labels, which The Intercept describes as a big money operation co-founded by former Sen. Joe Lieberman “that funnels high-net-worth donor money to conservative Democrats and moderate Republicans.”

Interestingly, Manchin seemed open to filibuster reform — a private stance that contradicts his public one.
