No Labels is moving forward with its plan to offer a third-party ticket in the 2024 election, despite its failure to attract top-tier candidates and struggles to make good on its state-level ballot access goals.
On Friday, the dark-money group’s unnamed delegates voted to proceed with a so-called “unity” ticket — even as a No Labels official acknowledged they have not managed to find a candidate yet and may not be able to, according to Politico.

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-Ariz.) announced on Tuesday that she will not seek reelection in 2024. The move clears the way for a showdown between Democrat Ruben Gallego and Republican Kari Lake in what will be one of the most consequential races this year.
In a video message released on social media, Sinema claimed that despite her successes and efforts to promote unity and understanding “Americans still chose to retreat farther into their partisan corners.”
“I believe in my approach, but it’s not what America wants right now. I love Arizona,...

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-az) said that she won’t run for reelection to the Senate.
“Because I choose civility, understanding, listening, working together to get stuff done, I will leave the Senate at the end of this year,” Sinema said in a video statement posted on her X/Twitter account today.
“Over my career, I have shown how government can work for everyday people,” she added, citing a host of bipartisan legislation.
She said that despite all of those accomplishments, “Americans still choose to retreat farther to their partisan corners. These solutions are considered failures, either because they are too much or not nearly enough. It’s all or nothing. The outcome, less important than beating the other guy.”
Sinema left the Democratic party at the end of 2022 and switched her affiliation to independent, as she faced a potential primary challenge. But she had withheld announcing her plans until now.

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-Arizona) spent hundreds of thousands of dollars she raised on personal luxuries.
Sinema once criticized politicians for using campaign funds for personal expenses. In 2018, Sinema stated, “Arizonans are sick and tired of seeing Washington bureaucrats use their hard-earned tax dollars for personal gain.”
In 2024, Sinema spent $796,565 between October to December 2023. The money went to hotels, a new Chevrolet, concerts and first-class airplane tickets. Roughly $270,000 went to her security, including a new vehicle for a friend. Sinema has also spent money on cars in London and Paris despite no records of any reasoning for costs overseas.
Sinema will face stiff challenges if she decides to run for a second term. USA Today called out the irony of Sinema’s spending spree: “It is. . . idiotic for a supposed public servant to pamper herself on the public’s dime.”

It’s a small miracle if a day passes without the media uncovering an absurd new lie from George Santos. Politico reported on Thursday, for instance, that the scandal-ridden congressman was once charged with passing bad checks to Amish dog breeders. It isn’t a great look for the Republican Party, and Mitt Romney, maybe the only GOP lawmaker with any concern for upholding decorum, took issue with Santos’ flair for fabrication at Tuesday’s State of the Union address. “You don’t belong here,” Romney reportedly sniped at Santos.

President Biden called for unity many, many times during his second State of the Union address on Tuesday night. And indeed, unity was achieved during the speech — thanks to Kyrsten Sinema and Marjorie Taylor Greene’s outfit choices for the evening. Even the hosts of “The View” had to mock them on Wednesday.
As folks live tweeted the broadcast, people came together as one, largely comparing Sinema’s bright yellow, ruffled dress to “Sesame Street” icon Big Bird. Others focused on Marjorie Taylor Greene, who opted for a white coat, with a very fluffy collar piece. For “The View” host Alyssa Farah Griffin, that coat was actually a bit traumatizing.
“I was distracted by Marjorie Taylor Greene’s jacket! It looked like she skinned my puppy!” she said.

President Joe Biden’s second State of the Union address emphasized bipartisanship again and again. But while he may or not have achieved it, Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema certainly did when she brought Americans of all stripes together to make fun of her outfit.
Now Sinema, the once-Democratic Senator who ostentatiously re-registered as an independent last November, has been frequently called out for what critics say is attention-seeking behavior. But she may have outdone herself with her State of the Union look: An extremely bright yellow dress with huge, extremely frilly sleeves that had people comparing her to everything from Big Bird to a Teletubby.
One user said Sinema skinned Big Bird to get her outfit.

Democratic Arizona Representative Ruben Gallego has announced his bid to unseat incumbent Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, who announced her departure from the Democratic Party in December.
In English- and Spanish-language videos posted to his Twitter account, Gallego, who represents Arizona’s 7th congressional district, said that he is running for the Senate in 2024 to “win back” the American Dream for the people of Arizona. “There is no lobbyist for American families,” Gallego said, “if you’re more likely to be meeting with the powerful than the powerless, you’re doing this job incorrectly.

A spokesperson for Sinema, Hannah Hurley, indicated to The Daily Beast that the alleged memo “is not in line with official guidance from Sen.

Sen. Bernie Sanders is not excited that there is another independent in the U.S. Senate. Speaking about Sen. Kyrsten Sinema’s recent defection from the Democratic Party, Sanders seemed underwhelmed. “She’s a corporate Democrat who has… sabotaged enormously important legislation,” he said.
“I don’t want to spend a whole lot of time on Sen. Sinema. She has her reasons,” Sanders told host Dana Bash on CNN’s State of the Union. “I happen to suspect that it’s probably a lot to do with politics back in Arizona.

It was a highly political “Weekend Update” on Saturday Night Live with Colin Jost and Michael Che taking swipes at political figures.
Jost started off the segment by saying that “it was shaping up to be a good week for Joe Biden” after getting Brittney Griner back from Russia and “kept marriage gay” by having Congress pass protections for same-sex married couples.
“And he’s only got 14 more sleeps until Santa,” Jost added. “But then, just when he thought that he had it all under control, Kyrsten Sinema said, ‘Hold my wig.'”

Updated, with Schumer comment: Senator Kyrsten Sinema jolted Democratic hopes of obtaining a clear majority in the next Congress when she announced on Friday that she has switched her party affiliation to independent.
“Like a lot of Arizonans, I have never fit perfectly in either national party,” she wrote in an op ed in the Arizona Republic. “Becoming an independent won’t change my work in the Senate; my service to Arizona remains the same.”
Sinema’s move comes days after Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-ga) won reelection, giving Democrats a 51-49 majority. Sinema told Politico that she does not plan to caucus with Republicans. Democrats count two independents as part of their caucus — Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Senator Angus King of Maine — and Sinema plans to maintain her committee assignments controlled by the party. Even without her vote, the Senate would be tied, leaving it to Vice President Kamala Harris to break it.

Democratic Arizona senator Kyrsten Sinema once again drew criticisms this week after she revealed that she and the very conservative Mitch McConnell have developed a new working friendship. But at this point, Joy Behar is pretty sure that Sen. McConnell is Sinema’s only friend in politics.
This week, Sinema and McConnell have gone back and forth singing each other’s praises, with McConnell dubbing the Arizona senator “the most effective first-term senator I’ve seen in my time in the Senate,” and Sinema touting their new friendship “that is rooted in our commonalities.” As a result, Sinema has received blowback from other Democrats — but that wasn’t surprising to Behar and her co-hosts on Tuesday’s “The View.” So she laid out a laundry list of people who feel differently than the Senate Minority Leader.

Kyrsten Sinema is a Democrat, technically speaking. The senator from Arizona ran as one four years ago, but since arriving in Washington, she’s shown more interest in thwarting, rather than advancing, the party’s agenda. She’s been a favorite of corporate interests, conservative donors, and, not surprisingly, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who on Monday called her “the most effective first-term senator” he’s ever seen.

President Joe Biden signed a landmark 750 billion spending bill — which includes provisions for climate change, healthcare, and inflation reduction — into law on Tuesday. “With this law the American people won and the special interests lost,” Biden said before the signing.
The Inflation Reduction Act will provide nearly 400 million towards climate action, representing the largest environmental investment in American history. It will also allow Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices and cap out-of-pocket prescription spending for older Americans. The bill passed through both congressional chambers in party-line votes, with Vice President...

It happened. It finally happened. Though Republicans tried to stand in the way of Democrats’ efforts to pass a massive climate change bill, thanks to a tie-breaking vote by Vice President Kamala Harris, the legislation now heads to the House.
The bill, the Inflation Reduction Act, if put into law could reduce greenhouse gas emissions to approximately 40 percent of 2005 levels, according to The New York Times. The bill also contains provisions that would allow Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices for the first time and would limit out-of-pocket costs for Medicare recipients to 2,000 per year.

Update: The Senate on Sunday passed a 700 billion package to address climate change, curb the rising cost of prescription drugs and extend Affordable Care Act benefits.
Senate Democrats broke out in applause after Vice President Kamala Harris announced the 50-50 vote and broke the tie for passage.
The Inflation Reduction Act, a compromise forged by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-wv), next heads to the House, expected to vote on Friday.
The legislation will raise revenue in part through a 15 minimum take on major corporations that make profits of 1 billion a year.
The passage came after an all-night and all-day long series of votes on amendments to the legislation, a process that has been dubbed “vote-a-rama.”

In his monologue on Friday’s episode of “Real Time,” Bill Maher was thrilled by the news that, at least at the moment, it looks like the Democrats are going to pass a fairly robust bill to combat climate change.
But he took some time to mock contrarian Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema for holding the bill up in order to squeeze concessions that benefit wealthy hedge fund managers.
For those in need of a catch up, on Friday Sinema ended her latest narcissistic parading by announcing she’s agreed to support the bill. Her sticking point had been a part of the bill that would have made minor changes to the so-called “carried interest loophole,” a tax law quirk that allows executives at private equity firms and hedge funds to pay lower taxes than their employees. She supports the loophole and demanded that provision be removed from the bill.

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-az) agreed Thursday night to “move forward” on the Inflation Reduction Act, clearing the way toward a potential passage of the spending bill if another holdout Democrat does not emerge. ‘
Sinema and fellow Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia were the party’s holdouts on the previous incarnation of the Biden administration’s larger “Build Back Better” bill. Manchin and Sinema were said to be troubled by that bill’s prospects of adding to rampant inflation. Without their votes, and given a solid GOP opposition, the prospects of getting something done in the Senate appeared doomed.
But Manchin changed his mind earlier this week on a 739 billion version of that bill, and Sinema has now gotten her wish list fulfilled and has agreed to support the legislation. A 50-50 split in the Senate vote would throw the decision to VP Kamala Harris, who would presumably agree to it.

West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin did the “Full Ginsburg” on Sunday’s political talk show circuit, promising that his surprise support of a new spending bill won’t cause added taxation on the average household.
The term “Full Ginsburg” refers to a person who appears on the five major Sunday morning talk shows on the same day, including ABC’s This Week, Fox News Sunday, CBS’s Face the Nation, NBC’s Meet the Press, and CNN’s State of the Union.
Manchin stuck to his message on the shows, claiming the so-called “Inflation Reduction Act of 2022” will decrease price inflation and will not raise taxes on the average American household. That assessment has been challenged by Republican and in a report by the nonpartisan congressional Joint Committee on Taxation.
“I agree with my Republican friends,” Manchin told NBC’s Chuck Todd on Meet the Press. “We should not increase taxes.
