Silly question:

Sinema teaches a University course in Arizona yeah?

Does she have Tenure? Coz with that guaranteed job and the cash she has managed to grift in her Senate term, she should be pretty well off. And she can go back to her Uni job with added swagger and all she has to do in her lectures is say "Well, when I was a US Senator, ...." and tell a boring story about how she voted against a living wage by doing a cutesy spin.

Lol.

No she doesn't have tenure. Almost no one has tenure now.

In the US, tenure is like full-ride scholarships - it's so rare nowadays that it's basically not a thing anymore and only lives on in popular culture. To even be placed on tenure track now (to be employed in a position that offers the possibility of tenure, maybe, provided that you publish enough in the allotted time) you basically have to be one of the leaders in your field. If you have tenure now you're either Nobel Prize-level or a bajillion years old and grandfathered in. The vast majority of American university faculty, like 80%, are not even on tenure track. Like their employment contracts explicitly state that their positions can never become permanent. What's that, you want a raise? Well, maybe we'll look for someone else when your 2-year contract is up.

No she won't have tenure but she's on the gilded path for life after being a senator, a tenured professor position isn't poo poo compared to:

- K Street Lobbyist
- Private School Professor
- Cable News Talking Head
- Sinecure at Think Tank for Radical Centrism

All of which are easily within reach for her. She's certainly far from the first but may be the most bold in how nakedly ambitious she's doing this (using the Senate to career climb)

It's not entirely wrong to blame Biden for not even considering packing the court. :shrug:

But to do that would be to tacitly admit the institution is illegitimate. So... :decorum:

Mostly just glad he wasn’t named after his paternal grandfather Dick Carlson.

He previously worked at the White House and as a communications director for someone in Congress. I am sure this was entirely due to his expansive skill set and not to pander to his dad.
