Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) has reportedly ignored phone calls from President Joe Biden as he tries to wrangle her support for his agenda.<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s frustration with the Arizona senator is growing as she and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) continue to stall the White House\u2019s efforts to push costly legislation through Congress. The feeling of frustration is apparently mutual as Sinema has begun blowing off calls from the White House, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2021\/10\/07\/politics\/bernie-sanders-joe-manchin-biden-agenda\/index.html\">CNN<\/a>. As the outlet reports:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"17\">\n<p><em>\u201cOff the charts,\u201d one Democratic senator told CNN on Thursday when asked about the caucus\u2019 frustration with Manchin, contending many senators privately gripe that the West Virginia Democrat takes his public stands for \u201cpublicity\u201d reasons.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Biden himself has sounded exasperated at both Manchin and Sinema, according to Democratic lawmakers who have spoken to him. The President told progressives this week that he has spent many hours with the two senators \u201cand they don\u2019t move,\u201d two sources said. Biden even contended that Sinema didn\u2019t always return calls from the White House, the sources added.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Democratic leaders and progressives in Congress have hounded Sinema and Manchin over their refusal to rubber stamp Biden\u2019s high-spending priorities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c2 senators cannot be allowed to defeat what 48 senators and 210 House members want. We must stand with the working families of our country. We must combat climate change. We must delay passing the Infrastructure Bill until we pass a strong Reconciliation Bill,\u201d self-proclaimed socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-VT) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/sensanders\/status\/1443926661792210945\">tweeted<\/a> on October 1, ignoring the opposition of 50 GOP senators and attempting to pin the blame solely on Sinema and Manchin.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, activists pursued Sinema into a bathroom at Arizona State University, where she teaches a course at the university\u2019s School of Social Work. The activists pushed Sinema to support Biden\u2019s plan, continuing to follow her and yell as she entered the bathroom and went into a stall.<\/p>\n<p>In response to the incident, Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/biden-on-kyrsten-sinema-being-harassed-in-bathroom-it-happens-to-everybody-part-of-the-process\">told<\/a> reporters that \u201cit happens to everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think they\u2019re appropriate tactics, but it happens to everybody,\u201d Biden told reporters on Monday. \u201cThe only people it doesn\u2019t happen to are people who have Secret Service standing around them. So it\u2019s part of the process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sinema released a statement after the incident condemning the activists\u2019 behavior.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYesterday, several individuals disrupted my class at Arizona State University. After deceptively entering a locked, secure building, these individuals filmed and publicly posted videos of my students without their permission \u2014 including footage taken of both my students and I using a restroom,\u201d she said. \u201cIn Arizona, we love the First Amendment. We know it is vital to our democracy that constituents can freely petition, protest, or criticize my policy positions and decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe activist group that engaged in yesterday\u2019s behavior is one that both my team and I have met with several times since I was elected to the Senate,\u201d she continued, \u201cand I will continue engaging with Arizonians with diverse viewpoints to help inform my work for Arizona.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYesterday\u2019s behavior was not legitimate protest. It is unacceptable for activist organizations to instruct their members to jeopardize themselves by engaging in unlawful activities such as gaining entry to closed university buildings, disrupting learning environments, and filming students in a restroom,\u201d she said. \u201cIn the 19 years I have been teaching at ASU, I have committed to creating a safe and intellectually challenging environment for my students. Yesterday, that environment was breached. My students were unfairly and unlawfully victimized. This is wholly inappropriate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
