Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) took some time to trash a former Democrat colleague on Monday.
Speaking to the National Press Club, Warren blasted former Senator Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona, who was maligned by the left for being more moderate. During her comments, Warren essentially accused Sinema of corruption and blamed national distrust for Democrats on her actions.

“Many voters are rightly skeptical that we’ll really make something happen,” she said, referring to the current affordability crisis that thrived under former President Joe Biden.
“After all, we didn’t even take the extraordinarily obvious and simple step of increasing the minimum wage the last time we had power. Ask Kyrsten Sinema, the former Democratic senator from Arizona, who curtsied on the Senate floor while rejecting a minimum wage increase in 2021 to raise wages for up to 27 million Americans, and then spent the rest of her time in office protecting hedge fund managers from paying taxes and blocking filibuster reform,” the senator continued.
“Sinema faced no consequences from her president or her leaders in Washington. Eventually, it was her own constituents back home who chased her out of the Senate. But today, she is cashing in from the industry she protected. The Wall Street Journal recently marveled at the sheer number of projects Sinema has taken on from crypto, AI, and other wealthy corporate clients. And meanwhile, millions of working Americans who have not seen a minimum wage increase in almost two decades are still waiting for Democrats to deliver on one of our most basic promises.”
X users reacted to Warren’s accusation:
By making early claims against other Senate members, Warren now will claim any investigation into her OWN FRAUD is retribution. It’s useful tactic.

Elizabeth Warren lied to get ahead of other more deserving in her careers, she’s made millions since becoming a senator despite earning a modest public sector salary. TheHill should be honest in these hit job reporting.
