Fox News anchor Bret Baier managed to put Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia in the hot seat on Sunday after he went back on his promise not to support a new bill that could end up making our nation’s current struggle with inflation even worse.
Gee. A politician — a Democrat at that — who made a promise then broke it? Shock of all shocks.
Baier made Manchin sweat during an interview on the “Fox News Sunday” program where he confronted the Democratic senator using his own words, making it abundantly clear that the “Inflation Reduction Act” actually violates the positions that Manchin has held in the past.
According to TheBlaze , Machin stated back in 2010, “I don’t think during a time of recession you mess with any of the taxes or increase any taxes.”
Manchin repeated those same words just a month ago.
Baier went on to tell Manchin, “Now technically we’re in a recession, and technically, according to multiple different organizations, this bill does raise taxes,” citing some analysis work done by the Tax Foundation and Americans for Tax Reform .

“In response, Manchin asserted the bill does not raise taxes, but closes tax loopholes only. In fact, Manchin directly challenged all assertions that the bill either levies new taxes or will exacerbate inflation,” TheBlaze reported. “They’re wrong; it does not raise taxes,” Manchin remarked. Baier then tackled inflation, reminding Manchin that he made comments concerning the America Rescue Plan last March — which is the relief bill for the coronavirus pandemic cooked up by President Joe Biden — and how it wouldn’t end up overheating the economy and leading to a massive increase in inflation. Well, as we all know, that’s exactly what has […]

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
