I honestly don’t know if you can lay this at her feet. She has a staff and someone didn’t do their due diligence in setting up the business end of it properly.

This is someone who has never had employees and I think we have to cut her some slack. It is not hypocrisy, it is not having people around you who know the basics.

She’s a newby. Reasonable learning curve.

I wonder how much the opposition research on Cortez is costing.

So far they've "caught" her.

Wearing woman's clothing.

Carrying a hand bag.

Being politically incorrect.

Wondering about paying rent in DC.

Dancing.

And now her miniscule $194000 primary campaign missing a monthly payment on workers comp and paying the appropriate fine.

And you forgot the big one -- espousing hard-core socialism (vs. our current soft-core socialism). She is a fun personality, which is why she got elected; and you noted some things about that personality . . . yet, you omitted the only thing about her that really matters to our nation, her desire to turn our country into a socialist s***hole.

Hard-core socialism? Seems like a bit of an exageration.

BTW If you edit your post immediately you can probably still avoid a message from the admin.

No dear. Like Venezuela and Mexico. Speaking of Switzerland, it has a very decentralized government, with most of the power -- including taxation and government control -- left to its 23 cantons (states).

Nah. Let them send me a message. I will be OK. Thanks for the heads up though.

I think you need to do some more research....

I'm not your dear.
Like Venezuela and Mexico.

Mexico isn't socialist and it's hilarious that folks want to point to a third world country like Venezuela that has a one trick pony economy rather than the numerous successful European countries. It's almost as if they don't understand socialism.

Speaking of Switzerland, it has a very decentralized government, with most of the power -- including taxation and government control -- left to its 23 cantons (states).
And nearly everything OAC is advocating. It's almost as if socialism and small government can coexist.

1 month, eh?

Looks like it. Looks like they didn't have the coverage for a month and they got fined $1500.

If that doesn't destroy Ocasio-Cortez's political future forever I don't know what will. She is the biggest threat the GOP and Conservatives have ever faced. It's astounding the amount of sheer power that a freshman representative wields and so it's pretty important to take her down a peg or two or all the way.
