The Hit Squad Comes for Kyrsten Sinema

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema is not well-liked by the national elements of her party. As I wrote recently, Sinema earns high marks with both Democrats and Republicans in her home state of Arizona, something that is almost unheard of for a senator. Yet, you would never know how good of a position she’s in if you paid attention to the news media.
Because they almost all lean hard-left, most news outlets have been very critical of Sinema’s position. I’ve lost count of how many negative op-eds The Washington Post has printed against her at this point. The Arizona senator is also routinely maligned on cable news networks like CNN and MSNBC,
Despite that, she’s held fast in her opposition to blowing up the filibuster, which is what all of this consternation boils down to. Democrats and the media want to ram through a utopian, hard-left wishlist on the basis of just 50 votes. Sinema wants no part of that.
Now, the hit squad is coming for her. This morning, a story dropped claiming she created a hostile work environment for former staffers.
