This afternoon, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted about her opposition to former congressmen and women going on to become lobbyists:

If you are a member of Congress + leave, you shouldn’t be allowed to turn right around&leverage your service for a lobbyist check. I don’t think it should be legal at ALL to become a corporate lobbyist if you’ve served in Congress. At minimum there should be a long wait period. https://t.co/xMu9Mwmdm6 — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) May 30, 2019

And then this happened:

Here’s something I don’t say often: on this point, I AGREE with @AOC Indeed, I have long called for a LIFETIME BAN on former Members of Congress becoming lobbyists. The Swamp would hate it, but perhaps a chance for some bipartisan cooperation? https://t.co/jPW0xkH2Yy — Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) May 30, 2019

Does AOC also hate avocados? Because if so, we could be witnessing the making of one of D.C.’s oddest couples yet.

And like that, I liked my first Ted Cruz tweet — Mike Albanese (@MikeAlbanese) May 30, 2019

Did… Did I just like a tweet from Ted Cruz? — Devin Nunes' Frivolous Lawsuit (@ChrisMEdgington) May 30, 2019

Damn…I'm actually about to retweet @tedcruz — Bryan Minehart (@BryanMinehart) May 30, 2019

And now I've liked a post by Ted Cruz. Will wonders never cease? — Peter Barta (@bartap74) May 30, 2019

Update:

Is this really happening?

.@tedcruz if you’re serious about a clean bill, then I’m down. Let’s make a deal. If we can agree on a bill with no partisan snuck-in clauses, no poison pills, etc – just a straight, clean ban on members of Congress becoming paid lobbyists – then I’ll co-lead the bill with you. https://t.co/AZTbmdSexv — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) May 30, 2019

Gird your loins, people.
