AOC Exposed For The Extraordinary Hypocrite She Truly Is
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez truly despises the 1%, so much so that when she attended the world’s number one social event for the rich and famous — attended by the top 0.000002% — she wore a dress emblazoned with a slash of red that said “Tax The Rich.”
The Democratic socialist proved once more her hypocrisy, entitlement, and deep sense of ineligibility. According to House investigators, she had asked for $70,000 in free tickets, stiffed hotel staff and made her own dress, then tried to hide the entire mess.
AOC makes $174,000 a year — putting her far ahead of the average American — drives a Tesla, and lives in a luxury apartment building in a posh D.C. neighborhood where even a studio apartment costs more than $2,000 a month (she’s got an infinity pool, which might equal her ego).
This is the best part! still Not enough. She decided to be a bartender for 28 years and meet some of the most beautiful, wealthy people in Manhattan at 2021’s Met Gala. She didn’t want the cost. Please. A pair of tickets costs $70,000 — if you could get them. This is a very exclusive deal.
So the media darling traded off her position to get an invite — helped along “after much prodding by her campaign staffer,” The New York Post reported. Anna Wintour of Vogue, the Gala’s founder, invited her to a dinner and gave her a card stating that they would be reuniting. “guests of Vogue.”
The Congressional Ethics Committee’s investigation into her attendance to the Gala showed that her lawyers cautioned her that she shouldn’t attend, noting that she can’t accept a huge gift. Vogue’s parent, Advance Media Publications has a lobbyist company that prohibits lawmakers from receiving gifts.
An attorney from AOC informed her that she was legally allowed to attend the Gala in a note sent to her staff prior. “‘The Congresswoman could accept an invitation from [the Met]”But not from Vogue,” he said. according Daily Mail. Advance Publications has been registered as a lobbyist. We’ll be even more cautious!
This seems fairly obvious. AOC nonetheless attended and made quite a splash. This dress. Documents show that soon afterward she or perhaps her staff sought to downplay the whole thing. Damn the little people, let them eat … whatever they eat, who knows.
The Mail reported that then, the coverup started.
Vogue staffers reached AOC’s offices the next day to report that there had been a lot of inquiries from media about the congresswoman’s attendance.
“‘Hope the [C]ongresswoman had a great time last night!,’ a Vogue staffer wrote. ‘We have had a number of inquiries re: AOC’s invitation and if she paid for her ticket. Mainly from Page Six,'” New York Post
“We also alerted the museum. Given that she was a guest of Vogue, we were planning to say on background that she was a guest of Anna [Wintour]’s. Of course wanted to check with you before responding.'”
Huh. This seems to be a lot revisionist history. So, there’s that.
The House investigation has revealed much more about AOC.
AOC was also billed $1300 for the dress. However, her staff were able to reduce the cost by $1,100 and get the $635 price cut of the shoes. The Mail reported that they had been listed as rentals.
After failing to repay thousands of dollars in Gala-related bills, the socialist also failed to cover $344.85 for makeup. This was passed to a collection agency. “extremely overdue.”
It took her so long to repay $477.73 for hairstyles. “reached out to her staff and said ‘it would look terrible if we had to file a complaint with the NY Dept of Labor against Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez,'” The Mail reported. Business Insider reports that she took almost one year to pay the bill. reported.
According to the Post, it took her eight months to pay over $1,000 for Conde Nast’s transportation, and nearly one year for $4,602.92 to cover bills at Carlisle Hotel.
“In addition, a publicist associated with the company that supplied Ocasio-Cortez with her rental items — a gown, a handbag and shoes — provided a final invoice to the campaign staffer in September 2021 for about $990, but it went unpaid for months. The company then identified in April that $5,579.99 worth of unpaid goods and services had been provided to Ocasio-Cortez and her partner for the event, the report said,” NBC News reported.
It’s important to note that AOC paid AOC her bills only after House investigators started their investigation.
AOC took the blame, as liberals often do. She wasn’t the problem, but her incompetent staff.
“I just never, ever, ever would have allowed that to happen knowing what I have learned, but that I wasn’t privy to the invoices, wasn’t privy to the ones that had been sent,” According to her, she said that Mail reported.
“And it is just a deeply regrettable situation. I feel l terrible for especially the small businesses that were impacted.” Then she made a Nixonian-style excuse. “There was a ball that was dropped.”
Aw, poor AOC. She has employed incompetent people. That’s horrible.

David Mitrani was brought by AOC to assist her. He stated that the congresswoman was a fraud. “finds these [payment] delays unacceptable, and she has taken several steps to ensure nothing of this nature will ever happen again.”
Ocasio-Cortez talks a good game about the oppressed … but the businesses she owed money to Are They oppress the poor. AOC did not care a bit about them until investigators started asking questions.
Another Democratic socialist is Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-VT. He is multimillionaire and owns three homes.
AOC is already well on her path to following his lead.
