All elected officials should be independent
Good riddance, let the scank go…
😜😜😜😜😝😝. Boy this made my day.
Why would anyone ever want to be a Democrat anyway? Idiots are destructive to society
Great news regarding kyrsten, 1 down..49 to go..ho ho ho
She's full of 💩💩 and y'all are slipping on it.
Sinema a typical politician. Me Myself and I. Understood Sinema! You work for constituents not corporations. You never got that. Right?

Sinema did not show up or meet Biden when he came to Arizona just a couple weeks ago. Wonder why? LOL
Goodby and good riddance. Won't be missed.
Recall that B!
I'm glad she's leaving, She didn't really help her Democratic Party out, now we just need Sen. Joe Manchin out.
Wait! She was IN the Democratic Party!?!
#NBCNews #Democrat #Senate
Yet like both major parties she cannot get away fron the MIC "Party".
Good riddance. She was never a democrat.
No surprise. She already outed herself.
Excellent good decision anyway she’s really not working for people who earns pay check to pay check. She’s just for herself
She's lining up a nice pharmaceutical lobbying job. This latest stunt gets her in limelight one last time which will, not only feed her insatiable ego, but also give her more control for a desired salary from Pfizer. I expected this from her going back years ago but the timing is much more advantageous now.
“My political stance has never changed. The Democratic party’s platform is right in line with my beliefs.” — Kyrsten Sinema 2004
“I don’t believe in accepting money in exchange for votes. That’s bribery.” — Kyrsten Sinema, 2000
"Until the average American realizes that capitalism damages her livelihood while augmenting the livelihoods of the wealthy, the Almighty Dollar will continue to rule." — Kyrsten Sinema, letter 2002
"Joe Liberman’s a shame to Democrats … I don’t even know why he’s running. He seems to want to get Republicans voting for him. What kind of strategy is that?
— Kyrsten Sinema 2003
TRAITOR!
I like her independent streak. BUT…she says she will caucus with the Democrats and I think most likely vote with them. So nothing changes. I read where this is all to fend off an expected Dem primary in 2024!
Can't be trusted.
She's a media star…nothing else.
Who is she kidding?!?We all know she's a Repub and will be voting in lock step with the nut cases.
She's never been a democrat, she's obviously a GOP plant. She's scheming to divide votes likely orchestrated by Mcconnell Mccarthy fox.
