President Biden downplayed the leftist activists who followed Sen. Kyrsten Sinema into a bathroom and videotaped her, calling such actions part of politics.
The president condemned the harassment, in which an illegal immigrant demanded that Ms. Sinema support Mr. Biden’s $3.5 trillion spending bill. But in the same breath at a Monday news conference, he said such attacks happen to everyone.
“I don’t think they’re appropriate tactics, but it happens to everybody,” Mr. Biden told reporters. “The only people it doesn’t happen to are people who have Secret Service standing around them. So it’s part of the process.”
White House press secretary Jen Psaki quickly sought to clarify the president’s soft-pedaling of the incident, saying Mr. Biden “shorthanded” his objections.
Ms. Psaki called the activists’ behavior “inappropriate and “unacceptable.” But she also noted they had a First Amendment right to protest. . . .
Ms. Sinema, Arizona Democrat, issued a statement Sunday criticizing the protesters who followed into a bathroom at Arizona State University, where she is a lecturer.
A video of the encounter showed one activist waiting outside the bathroom stall Ms. Sinema was in, while the other stood at the entrance filming the incident.
One of the activists is heard saying that they can get her “out of office” if she doesn’t support the $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill.
In a statement, Ms. Sinema called the activists’ behavior “unacceptable” and “not legitimate protest.”
She also said their behavior was unlawful because it is illegal in Arizona to photograph or videotape someone in a bathroom. (Excerpt from Washington Times.)
What do you think of following politicians into bathrooms and this kind of behavior? Are you praying for Senator Sinema?

It is completely illegal to bring an active filming electronic device of any type into a publicly used bathroom. My next question is if Senator Sinema doesn’t want to bring charges against these individuals, then someone should step up and do it anyway. That would be a small but necessary step towards decency. Quit playing “nice guy” with those that willingly violate the law.
This is another great example of the hypocrisy coming from the White House and their spokesperson. According to the spokesperson, the ‘activist’ has the right to harrass the Senator because of their First Amendment rights, even inside a bathroom … but parents expressing their First Amendment rights during a school board meeting, give cause for the Federal Government to label these parents ‘domestic terrorist?’ Due to the attention brought to this story, the activist is made a hero, and the good that the senator did has become evil (Isaiah 5:20 – Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light and light for darkness). Calling all believers of Jesus Christ to rise up against this lawlessness! Dear Heavenly Father, Give this senator courage to stand her ground in the face of her adversaries. Give all members of the House, Senate and Congress umption to stand against the evil that is intended to tear our democracy apart. We continue to life up the name of Jesus and believe His justice is coming. Show us Your glory Lord! Thank you Lord for going before us and clearing a way for justice. In Your mighty name, Amen and Amen. You have this battle won!
AMEN, Well said, Babette.
