With a 50-50 split in the United States Senate, there are two things Joe Biden cannot afford: Democrat defections and a filibuster. Senate rules require 60 votes for cloture to move on legislation, and recent years have turned the filibuster into an obstruction tactic by the minority party.
Senator Joe Manchin, a moderate Democrat from the very red state of West Virginia, has found himself in a very powerful position. His support or opposition to key legislation could make or break Joe Biden’s agenda in Congress.
So, it’s hard not to raise an eyebrow at the fact that Joe Biden has nominated Gayle Conelly Manchin, Senator Joe Manchin’s wife, to co-chair the Appalachian Regional Commission, which is an economic development partnership with 13 states designed “to innovate, partner, and invest to build community capacity and strengthen economic growth in Appalachia.” The position requires Senate confirmation.
This nomination comes at a time when Manchin has publicly expressed opposition to extreme gun control, a $15 minimum wage, and eliminating the filibuster.
So, what exactly is Biden up to?
It is not unprecedented for the spouse of a member of Congress to serve in an executive branch position. For example, Senator Mitch McConnell’s wife Elaine Chao served as transportation secretary under President Trump and labor secretary under President George W. Bush.

It’s hard to ignore the special circumstances surrounding Mrs. Manchin’s nomination that suggests, regardless of her qualifications, an ulterior motive by Joe Biden, or whoever it is making his decisions for him.

Comment:
The same idea came to mind when I heard that Chyna Joey Xi appointed Joe Manchin's wife Gayle to a Federal post.
Indeed Chyna Joe wants to buy Joe Manchins soul for thirty pieces of silver.
The question is will Manchin allow himself to be bought for something as temporary and venal as this?
It seems that Gayle Conelly Manchin's family controls a multi-billion dollar shipping company in Communist China with extensive government contracts.
If Manchin really cared about Amrica and the people of West Virginia he would have left the Democrat Party a long time ago. They have bad intentions for his state and it’s economy.

It’s entirely possible this is the case. I’m all for it really. If it serves the greater good, then the end justifies the means. Republicans have been playing dirty politics like this for decades. Democrats need to compete.

They pass HR1 and 2A infringement on a single vote tiebreaker and I think you'll see it's anything BUT for the "greater good". In fact, it may very well set this country on fire. Be careful what you wish for...

Nothing Biden does serves the greater good.

In 2016, Manchin was the subject of some controversy when USA Today, a national newspaper, published an article noting that Manchin, upon becoming Board of Education president in 2012, spearheaded a campaign for states to require schools to purchase EpiPens and other medical supplies.[8] Eleven states created laws to require schools to stock EpiPens, made by Mylan pharmaceuticals, leading to a "near monopoly" of Mylan's epinephrine autoinjector in the school health sector.[8] The article noted the potential for a conflict of interest, as Mylan's CEO, Heather Bresch, is Manchin's daughter.

Biden should find someone else to fit the role.

The price of the Epi pens went up to 600 bucks as I remember. I think its good to have epi pens in all schools, but its not good its so expensive.

I wonder why Joe just like O, is only concerned about buying the support of conservative Ds. Apparently neither is/was concerned about buying the support of progressive Ds. See Bernie and The Squad.
