Commie Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez-Macarena-Hey-Macarena defeats 10 term Democratic incumbent
gets a little involved here, but a fellow named Luke Thompson posted a pic that implies Cortez's boy friend is on her staff.

Cortez and her chief of staff Chakrabarti deny it.

Cortez responded:

"Actually this cal designation is a permission so he can have access to my Google Cal. Congressional spouses get Gcal access all the time.

Next time check your facts before you tweet nonsense."


Thompson replied: "He’s not your spouse. Is he being paid? At what level? It says “staff” not spouse or boyfriend. ," adding "Furthermore he doesn’t appear to be in any groups and the House doesn’t use Google. Are you giving him access to your official calendar? Why does he have his own email address?"

AOC's Chief of Staff, Saikat Chakrabarti (who authored the "Green New Deal" FAQ) chimed in, telling Thompson: "He's not paid. We have no volunteers in the office. He's not doing any government work. He can see her calendar just like spouses/partners/family members in other congressional office. Check your damn facts before you report bullshit. Lazy journos need to learn to do their jobs."

Others chimed in, noting that the only people who are allowed to have House email access are "House of Representative Members, Officers, Employees, Fellows, Interns and Contractors who have received permission under the appropriate Hiring Authority." There is no mention of spouses or family.

Rush played a clip of her talking about the 3 Billion dollars she just saved the people of NY by killing the Amazon deal. What a clueless little commie she is!

It appears that AOC may have put her own boyfriend on her staff, or least gotten him a House .gov email account in violation of House Ethics and security rules. This guy on Twitter got banned temporarily for pointing this out and there's a good back and forth here on Zero Hedge where it looks like she DID get him on her staff:

While you were having a nice Valentine's Day, @AOC decided to put her boyfriend on staff - drawing a salary on the taxpayer's dime. Nice to see her adapting to the swamp so quickly.



Twitter temporarily banned a user who tweeted on Friday that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez "put her boyfriend on staff," posting a screenshot of publicly available information showing that Riley Roberts has a "mail.house.gov" email address and is listed as "staff."

Man that is bullshit. I do not like politicians, on either side of the aisle, appointing family members. This lady is fucking crazy.

Truth-telling is verboten and will get you banned on Twitter!

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Is anyone here truly surprised at this? I am not. AOC is a real disaster--hopefully more for the Democrats than the Republicans.

Come on guys (and gals), now that Amazon pulled out early, she's got an extra $3B to spend which was going to be returned to them for setting up shop in her district.

No Amazon = $3B extra to spend.

lol I see it.


ETA: AOC would think of Cher's insubordination that she is just old and needs to be made comfortable, resuscitated if that's what must be and then a conversation ensue about viability.

Apparently Joe Lieberman torched her in public and appealed to the voters in the district effected. Lieberman states “ Ms. Ocasio-Cortez is a proud member of the Democratic Socialists of America, whose platform, like hers, is more Socialist than Democratic. Her dreams of new federal spending would bankrupt the country or require very large tax increases, including on the working class,” he continued. “Her approach foresees government ownership of many private companies, which would decimate the economy and put millions out of work.”

There is a reason some people are bound for greatness and a reason someone gives you a cart at the store. I think Forrest Gump had it right, "stupid is, as stupid does". She is not that bright and surrounds herself with the same.

Does it have to be one or the other, or could both apply? Maybe naivete is a issue with her, but after listening to the never ending stream of moronic twaddle fall out of her pie hole, I'm convinced her IQ hovers around room temp, so I think stupidity most definitely applies here too.

I agree bigdeal, she is so clueless that every time she opens her mouth to "make a statement" she babbles on like a stream of conscienceness 3rd grader.
She's 'dynamnic', young and trying to grab all the power she can...and at the same time sounds like someone schooled by cattle with her inane bullshit.

Thank you NYC for electing this braindead meat sack to congress!

No, she is just stupid! She supposedly has a college degree in economics. And she comes up with all this stupid shit? Any idea what branch of economics all that free shit, money for anybody/everybody even if they don't want to work?

I have a minor degree in economics, and not one of my college professors would EVER come up with such asinine, stupid, nonsense!

Used to be a saying about people taking out their brains to play with. Seems to fit with this dumb broad. No offense towards real dumb broads.
