“Let me make this clear, since billionaires have been trying to play footsie with the ticket: Anyone goes near Lina Khan and there will be an out and out brawl. And that is a promise,” wrote Ocasio-Cortez. “She proves this admin fights for working people. It would be terrible leadership to remove her.”

        It is about Lina Khan. Anyone not in the know about her really is doing themselves a disservice if they are anti-monopoly. She is the 30-something head of the FTC that has spent the last few years railing against the power mega corporations have over the American economy and how the economic policies of the last 40 years or so do not work for the American people.

        She could be the biggest trust buster since Teddy Roosevelt if she maintains support. She may be one of the brightest shining stars in our government, and one of the few that seems to have actual interest in making the lives of normal citizens better. She’s the dream of all the anti-capitalist posts on social media, but she has the ability to actually do something about it. Khan is one of the last remaining people that leave me with hope for the future of America.
