Democrat Turns On ‘Traitor’ Kyrsten Sinema For Supporting Filibuster

U.S. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., is a “traitor” to the legacy of the late U.S. Rep. John Lewis after reaffirming her support for the filibuster, a New York Democrat asserted Thursday.

U.S. Rep. Jamaal Bowman shared his views in a Twitter message in which he retweeted a photo that Sinema had posted of herself with Lewis, who died in July 2020 at age 80. She had captioned the post “My hero.”

“Hero: a person who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. Traitor: a person who betrays a friend, country, principle, etc.,” Bowman wrote.
