Kyrsten Sinema left the Senate, then appears to have treated her campaign account as a luxury slush fund. She's not alone, as far too many politicians treat grassroots donations as retirement bonuses.
The more I see and read about politics…. The more shocked I am at how utterly BROKEN many of our systems are….. we need to get the money OUT of politics!
Any campaign funds remaining when a politician leaves office should be turned over to a state controlled charity. Something like Homeless outreach, drug rehabs, school lunches, or a Real Charity as the money is from Donations. Also any elected official should not be able to accept a job in an area associated with their government position or 5 years. (Areas like, lobbyist, consultant, etc)
American politics, especially since the Citizens United (2010) Supreme Court decision, is a hotbed of corruption, although Ronald Reagan set the table with his trickle-down tax cuts hoax. The so-called Big Beautiful Bill Act is a wealth giveaway to the ultra-wealthy who financed the Orange Blob's rise to power, with (F)elon Musk as the main payer.
If only there was oversight and a government who cared.

She knows she lives in the Age Of Trump, so no worries as long as she doesn't cross him.

A sad example of grift and entropy within our body politic...
