She's always been on the side of the administrative managerial class. The Progressive stuff was always a marketing strategy.

I don't think so, she is very liberal on personal freedoms unlike the current iteration of the republican party; however she obviously is a bit of a nerd and has an axe to grind with banks and wall street.
If she were consistent about those values, she'd write a bill that tightens regulations on centralized exchanges instead of on individuals running validators in their bedrooms. Either her values aren't what you think, or she's put zero effort into learning anything about the technology she's trying to regulate.
She never introduced a bill to codify abortion before Roe was overturned instead of using it for fundraising. She supported Hillary even when she supported the no-bankruptcy bill on student loans. Again, it's only for marketing.
Ironic since the first time I heard about her was from conservative homeschooling types who were big fans of her due to her book 'The Two Income Trap'.
