Democratic swing vote, Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, told Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer that she would not be staying in town through the August recess - as she already had vacation plans.
On Friday, Politico's Playbook cited several unnamed Senate sources reporting that the Arizona Democrat told the party leader that she would not be sticking around to vote.
That's problematic because Democrats need every single senator to get through a potential $3.5 trillion budget bill using reconciliation, and need to pass the bipartisan infrastructure deal.

Schwing!!
Most of these parasites are on vacation 90% of time anyway. It’s not like she’s being a hero.
chuckie will vote FOR her...
Sen. Kyrsten Sinema is better for America than Sen. Juan McCain. The leftist Democrats may try to replace her with the odious Rep. Liz Cheney.
😱😂😂😂 Did she courtsey as she told him? Did he use the “Do you know who I am?” response? Nicely done.
This chick is wacky. I’m starting to like her.
chuckie can self declare as a woman; a democrat senator woman named Kyrsten Sinema.
This woman seems like she is a shrewd politician and not an idealogue. Perhaps she knows that once the Maricopa gambit is up, she will have a harder time getting elected. Who knows.
She’s a saucy little tart. A dame what knows her value and values her independence.
She’s a better man than John McCain was.
she will cancel her trip. She’s posturing for more support in her reelection campaign and graft to “take home” but she will be on-board. Guaranteed.
“ This chick is wacky. I’m starting to like her.”
*************************************
She might be the only DemocRAT politician I find likable.
If they have 17 Republicans then they don’t need her.
one measly person is all that stands in the way of $3.5 trillion, amnesty granting, nasty spend and gnash, liberal oozing country wrecker of a bill?
Disgusting.
Doubt it. Her re-election is 2024. A thousand years in politics.
LOL... right
There are more than 17 Assistant Democrats among the GOP Senators.
This girl is smart. She knows going hard left makes her a one termer.
Remember how scared we were of here back when she was a candidate?
The power of the sword of Damacles is in its hanging, not in its falling... Or something like that, I’m actually not all that well read.
Sinema is learning the lessons of McCain, Machine, Collins etc... well. If you are known to put up a good contrarian front but always give in for the sake of unity, you don’t get consulted early on in the negotiations and your pet projects don’t get funded. It also aggravates the zealots on your side and makes you look even more moderate.
