The fact that Ted Cruz and AOC completely agree on this shows you how unprecedented this all is.

And Rashida Tlaib and Donald Trump Jr too.

I am so glad to see legislators and politicians from both sides, regardless of their motivations, getting together on the side of the people.

RobinHood had to of known this was a potential outcome or they actually have the most inept management possible. I don't know how they plan on weathering this storm given how much of a public enemy they've made themselves into overnight.

AOC is such a firebrand. I love it. Not a lot of politicians who give me the sense that they're actually fighting for me.
