Congressional stock trading has to be stopped. It’s corrupt, it’s deceptive, and I can’t believe it does not adversely affect critical decisions. We should pay them all a good wage and enable people across the economic spectrum to be able to compete.

I've already started trying to move my comms to other platforms because of the Link debacle but suspending Sarah Kendzior for no reason at all, something Twitter never even did, is a wild escalation.
And not reinstating her is truly wild.
