When Sen. Kyrsten Sinema was elected in 2018, she was heralded by her fellow Democrats as a barrier-breaking icon: the first openly bisexual woman to be elected to the Senate. Yet the fanfare didn’t last long.

In a sad but revealing affair, the woke Left has since turned on the Arizona senator over political disagreements with her relatively centrist and fiscally conservative voting record. In the most recent example, NBC News just published an outlandish op-ed accusing the senator of being “bad for bisexuals” and claiming that she is seen as “a self-absorbed Democratic turncoat more fixated on getting attention and lining her own pockets than uplifting her community.” The author, a bisexual woman named Lux Alptraum, declared that Sinema is “no longer a bi icon” but is “now held up as a cautionary tale about the limits of representation.”
