West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin is shaking down the Biden administration | Letter

By

Look no further than West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin’s daughter, Heather Manchin Bresch, to understand the “good” Democrat’s greed and manipulation.

Back in 2016 Ms. Bresch, as CEO of Mylan Pharmaceuticals, jacked up the price of EpiPens over 400%, from $100 to around $600. EpiPen, for readers who may not know, is a life-saving medication used to treat people who are severely allergic to food, drugs, stings or bites. Because Ms. Bresch so greedily stuck it to those people who were dependent upon Mylan’s medication, her annual compensation rocketed to nearly $20 million from just over $2 million before the price hike.

Is it any wonder that her father is now shaking down the Biden administration and the working and middle classes who desperately need an infusion of infrastructure cash to jump-start their pandemic-stricken lives and local economies?

FYI Sen. Manchin, West Virginia isn’t the Upper East Side of New York City. The residents of your state need the infrastructure money as much as anybody. Quit pretending to be so pious and Christ-like! You’re nothing but a seeming clone of the daughter you raised.
