Instead of addressing a recent report that she is under a House Ethics investigation, U.S. House Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) today chose to lash out at U.S. Senator Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) for leaving the Democrat Party.
Ocasio-Cortez celebrated the news in a quote tweet of Sinema’s statement where she declared, “Not once in this long soliloquy does Sinema offer a single concrete value or policy she believes in.”
“She lays out no goals for Arizonans, no vision, no commitments. It’s ‘no healthcare, just vibes’ for Senate,” Ocasio-Cortez insisted.
Ocasio-Cortez then added that she believes “People deserve more. Grateful this race & nomination has opened up.”
Sinema said in the tweet, “In a natural extension of my service since I was first elected to Congress, I have joined the growing numbers of Arizonans who reject party politics by declaring my independence from the broken partisan system in Washington and formally registering as an Arizona Independent.”
“Over the past four years, I’ve worked proudly with other Senators in both parties and forged consensus on successful laws helping everyday Arizonans build better lives for themselves and their families.”
“Becoming an Independent won’t change my work in the Senate; my service to Arizona remains the same.”
Not once in this long soliloquy does Sinema offer a single concrete value or policy she believes in. She lays out no goals for Arizonans, no vision, no commitments.

As we reported on Wednesday, a statement was released by the House Ethics Committee announcing an investigation into Ocasio-Cortez.
The statement was brief and didn’t provide much detail other than the fact that an investigation was underway that began in June.
The statement also acknowledged that the matter wouldn’t be pursued further until the next Congress.
