A new video emerged Monday that showed Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., being confronted by a woman who identified herself as a constituent who walked closely next to the senator, prompting Sinema to say, "Don’t touch me," according to reports.
Sinema has been confronted in recent weeks by protesters displeased with her position on President Biden’s social services and climate change package. Earlier this month, the senator was followed into a bathroom by four protesters who recorded the incident. Arizona State University Police have since recommended charges against them.

Surely she can get one of those rich democRATS to fly her around on their private jet. If she only towed the line.
We all saw Breaking Bad and know New Mexico is the meth lab…
Sinema is in on it. This is all fake.
Why doesn’t she have a security detail?
I dunno about that. Politically, this would have looked much better for Democrats as a whole to have gotten this thing passed much sooner. It would have distracted at least some voters from things like Afghanistan, Covid, and the supply chain issues, and helped out some of their candidates at the state and local levels for the November elections. As it is, this is making them look disorganized and incompetent. So even if it passes, that stench will remain.
Also, both Sinema and Manchin have said some things publicly about the bill that are pretty damning, and the GOP's ability to use those as soundbites moving forward will remain even if the thing eventually passes.
In short, it would have made a lot more sense for Sinema and Manchin to have gotten their concessions months ago - if that is really what this is about -- rather than dragging it out for this long.
Yep, she’s in a party that favors mob rule. Its how they roll so she can’t really complain about it.
I’m sure there are some guys at Black Water that can help protect her.
She’s getting what she deserves. Hang around the RATs and you’ll meet a lot of RATs.
I’m sympathetic.
it sux to be in the public eye.

I agree, but it is also about keeping their jobs. Being a US senator is a great job, rewarding in every way (not saying there aren’t downsides). But they have to play to their constituents to keep their votes, ignoring rampant election fraud. They are doing what they need to do to get re-elected next time. If they swing too far left in their respective states, they could easily lose the next time they run.
For your interest.
yes, this is what happens when the collective, brain-dead stupidity of a party/movement starts reaching terminal velocity - the still somewhat sane members start getting nervous.
Sinema might have a brain. She realizes that USA is becoming a 100% socialist nation and she’s not comfortable with that idea. Who knows.
She and even Manchin bothay have a basic understanding of economics. Pumping huge amounts of money into an economy already afflicted with shortages is a recipe tailor-made for the greatest inflation we’ve ever seen.
The bill destroys the American system - one that has been good to Manchin, Sinema, and many other Senators - in favor of a Sanders/Warren fantasy. They know it’s too much, too fast, and will destroy their ability to play conservative when needed to keep their jobs.
Even Dorsey (Twitter CEO - “even a broken clock is right twice a day) had something to say about that. Hyperinflation.
The senator should have an armed body guard.
She is no Repub but she has more nerve than all of them except for a handful.
She’ll forever remain a Rat, but Sinema should switch to Independent and threaten to caucus with the GOP
