Comes now the strongest signal yet that U.S. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema is not running for reelection:
Her weakness for luxury travel on the taxpayer’s dime.
The Daily Beast is reporting that Arizona’s senior senator has racked up $210,000 in private air travel , courtesy of you-know-who.
While other members of Congress are cramming into the cattle car with the rest of us, Sinema is a frequent high-flier – yukking it up on Gulfstreams and Cessnas and such.
Sinema’s liberal use of our cash to fly in style is not illegal. She gets roughly $4 million a year to spend on office needs, including staff salaries, transportation and supplies.
It is, however, idiotic for a supposed public servant to pamper herself on the public’s dime.
That is, if she really has any interest in being reelected.
Kyrsten Sinema has a long list of accomplishments
Once upon a time, there was every reason in the world to believe that Sinema would run again and should run again.
Her fingerprints are all over some of the most consequential legislation to pass during one of the most polarized periods in our history – bipartisan bills to help veterans, fund infrastructure, address gun violence, protect same-sex marriage and boost the production of semiconductors.
