A single U.S. senator has detonated a political bombshell whose wide-ranging blast radius has touched his political party, his country and his planet.

Let us sift through political wreckage over the horizon and count the effects unleashed by Sen, Joe Manchin of West Virginia.

He has, until further notice, killed President Joe Biden’s hope of signing major legislation. Resurrecting the Build Back Better mega-bill could happen but it won’t be easy and it’s dead in its current form.

That time of death was Sunday, 9 a.m.ET. The place and cause? An interview on Fox News in which Manchin said he’s done negotiating this bill.
