AOC Doesn't Think the Rules Apply to Her

In other words, she's your typical politician.

When AOC atteded The Met Gala, where she wore that "Tax the Rich" gown, she violated a bunch of rules. Why? Because shut-up peasant! AOC begged to go to exclusive Met Gala, even if it meant breaking the rules

Courtesy of an ongoing Congressional ethics investigation into Bronx Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, we now know the trick to socialism: don’t pay for stuff. When AOC marched up the Met Museum steps in her famous dress 18 months ago, the slogan in red painted on the back, instead of reading “TAX THE RICH,” should have read “STIFF THE PROLETARIAT.”

That is typical of the Left. They love rules, just not when they apply to them. Bernie Sanders and his multiple homes/mansions. Al Gore and his many trips by jet, even when he could use Zoom or something similar. They're special.

The tickets were $35,000 a piece, and she wanted two. Rules? She WANTED TO GO!

So AOC came by the biggest part of her Met Gala grift the old-fashioned way: trading off of the elected position with which Bronx and Queens voters entrusted her.

AOC snagged two free tickets (after much prodding by her campaign staffer) by cozying up to Vogue’s Anna Wintour, who runs this show for the Met. AOC’s written invitation specifically informed her that she and her boyfriend were “guests of Vogue.”

Little problem: members of Congress can’t take near-seven-figure gifts from companies that employ lobbyists. Vogue is part of a sprawling media firm, including the firm that owns a big piece of Spectrum, our highly regulated internet provider.

Then there is the gown, a limo, hair, makeup, hotel room, manicure, and shoes (they were "rented").

Shoes? No good socialist pays $635 to “purchase” bright-red ribbon pumps, to be worn only once.

Her boyfriend also got shoes and a bowtie totalling $406.
