Former Senator Kyrsten Sinema is blasting Democrats and exposing the hypocrisy in their behavior over the funding bill.
The left has spent a good amount of time screeching over the filibuster and how it ruins democracy because “obstructionists” abuse it to keep legislation from being passed. Sinema herself has been at the center of some of these allegations in the past, specifically from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. During the Friday vote on the Republican funding bill, a mere 10 Democrats crossed the aisle to break the filibuster, something Sinema couldn’t help but point out on X.
Look:
Popular take from the Left:
If u had eliminated the filibuster & voted for everything that the Left wanted, the threat of the filibuster being used by Rs would never happen bc Ds would win every election & have a permanent majority.
What a breathtakingly undemocratic take. https://t.co/G6m9rlCtvR

Just surprised to see support for the “Jim Crow filibuster” here https://t.co/zohOh0E5st pic.twitter.com/AWQKGHN9CG

She even posted a spreadsheet exposing senators for their previous anti-filibuster stances:
Turns out, someone HAS made the spreadsheet. Bless this platform. https://t.co/hfIMJDIubs pic.twitter.com/VI2mEN2mU1

I’m kinda slow, but it seems that you might be implying that there are possibly some hypocrites in elected office. Correct me if I’m mistaken, please and thank you.

You cant be a democrat without hypocrisy.

Senator Sinema vindicated for saving the filibuster. ❤️

Need to put a bill out there to enshrine the filibuster. If it’s not done the next time the Dems are in charge they are going to throw out the rules and break another norm.
