Kyrsten Sinema stares down Democrats over increases in corporate, income taxes
Washington Times ^ | October 20, 2021 | Haris Alic

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, a top Democratic swing vote for the White House‘s legislative agenda, has ruled out scrapping the Trump-era tax cuts in order to pay for the entitlement and climate-change programs within President Biden’s multi-trillion-dollar partisan spending bill.

Ms. Sinema, Arizona Democrat, has told colleagues she will not support the more than 40 new tax increases being proposed.

House Democrats have proposed to pay for the $3.5 trillion expansion of the federal safety net by hiking corporate and income taxes. The current rates were set in 2017 by former President Trump’s signature overhaul of the tax code.

Good for her. We keep writing to her. She’s getting the message.

And she looks better than 99% of the other ‘Rats, can curtsy and give a McCainiac-like thumbs down.

Hopefully much better than a Flake.

I’m having tingles of Sinema and Machin holding a joint presser and sinking team Biden for good.

“The Democrat Party has left us so effective immediately we are declared independents and will not caucus with either party.”

Excuse me while I grab another beer.

She is a solid upgrade from McCain.

“I’m having tingles of Sinema and Machin holding a joint presser and sinking team Biden for good.”

Wouldn’t that confirm that “God works in mysterious ways”?! We all pray all the time for God to save our country. Could be this is His way of handling the problem.

Radio news is reporting that free community college is now a no go. Unless you are illegal.

I didn’t think it possible that even the best Democrat could be better than even the worst Republican, but I may have to adjust my thinking.

As of now, I’d take her over McCain, Romney and Murkowski in a heartbeat.

Subject to change, of course.

This sounds crazy but it seems to be true.

It'd be glorious! It's a long shot, but not impossible!

I’d swap her for Romney or Murkowski in a NY minute.

Has the press started calling her a “Maverick” yet?

Common sense still exists and so does people who believe in the Constitution.

For now.

10 years from now, it maybe another story.

This is fun to watch. The Democrats have a “maverick” senator, one who is a member of the party in name only. John McCain, also from Arizona was the Republican “maverick”. Fun to watch.

It appears that the bathroom-mob has thus far failed to win her heart or mind.

Just like McCain. They more they lean on her the feistier she gets.

The schadenfreude of watching the Democrats have to deal with a “maverick” in their party is delightful.
