Wall Street Journal: Her salaries havent been disclosed but people aware of her projects estimate she is set to make well over a million dollars this year It isnt abnormal for former lawmakers to pad their pockets after leaving Congress. But Sinemas sheer number of projects is unusual and so are her relationships with the party she never joined .
Since leaving office, the 49-year-old has pitched herself as a Republican whisperer, meeting with White House officials and helping clients navigate the Capitol.
After leaving office, Sinema donated $3 million from her campaign to fund a new AI center at Arizona State University but has been continuing to tap the remaining cash for flights, luxury hotels and music festival tickets. Government watchdogs have questioned her spending and said it could violate campaign finance law.

Was always on pleasure trips instead of Washington DC.
She also lied about her parents and childhood.
Painted a dismal picture of her childhood her parents said was not true
and they took her to court with proof.
