This is a MAJOR update. As Sen. Sinema steps into this new chapter of her life, let’s pray that God would make her a righteous leader.
From The Center Square. U.S. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona says she’s left the Democratic Party and will be unaffiliated with either major political party.
Get involved in state level prayer with IFA.
Arizonans woke up to the news from an overnight Twitter post that began with her hailing how great it is to wake up in the state. It was a companion piece to an exclusive op-ed penned for the Arizona Republic newspaper.
She vowed the change doesn’t reflect a move in her politics or beliefs, saying in the short clip it is “a reflection of who I’ve always been.”
The immediate implications weren’t entirely clear for a Senate that appeared to be 51-49 Democrats following the Georgia runoff election three days earlier, won by incumbent Democratic U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock. The op-ed and the tweets did not indicate with which party she would caucus. …
Sinema wrote in three tweets, “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. …
“Becoming an Independent won’t change my work in the Senate; my service to Arizona remains the same. Read my full Op-ed in the Arizona Republic.”
In the newspaper op-ed, Sinema writes, “In catering to the fringes, neither party has demonstrated much tolerance for diversity of thought. Bipartisan compromise is seen as a rarely acceptable last resort, rather than the best way to achieve lasting progress. Payback against the opposition party has replaced thoughtful legislating.”
Sinema wrote with precision, declaring her approach “rare” and today’s politics marked with “poison.” And with that, she was clear to state, “Americans are more united than the national parties would have us believe.” …

I praise God for the courage He instilled in Kyrsten Sinemas heart! I pray she will continue to be brave and stand for and vote for righteous precepts. Lord, please cover her with the Blood of Jesus and surround her with your holy angels.
I appreciate that she has seen through this whole political joke of 2 parties. Look where it’s gotten us. It’s finally peaked to the apex of the most criminal syndicate government in the history of the world not just our country. I hope she starts a new x military conservative party. While I’ve never been a fan of the libdems and I’m even more certain now of republicans useless. I pray she’s guided God in her next direction.
Father we pray for wisdom for Sinema. Thank you for her thoughtfulness in her decision. Guide her. May she have a meeting with you and draw close to you. May your angel armies be over her and protect her and her family from harrassment and physical harm.
