Surprise! Occasional-Cortex was lying

Good day all. Yesterday, I posted a story about how Representative-Elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, was crying poverty, claiming she couldn’t afford an apartment in Washington until she starts collecting a paycheck.

To the surprise of no one, it turns out that she is lying through her teeth. It seems that she has at least $15,000.00 in the bank, more than enough to put down the deposits for a decent apartment. Here are the details from Fox News:

Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claims that she’s unable to afford an apartment in Washington, D.C., until she begins collecting her congressional salary, but records show she has more than enough to plunk down on an apartment in the U.S. capital.

After months of fostering an image as a working-class Democrat, Ocasio-Cortez told the New York Times shortly after her Nov. 6 general election win that she won’t be able to afford an apartment in the Washington, D.C., area until her new $174,000-a-year salary kicks in next year. The median rent in D.C. is $2,700, according to real estate website Zillow.

“I have three months without a salary before I’m a member of Congress. So, how do I get an apartment? Those little things are very real,” Ocasio-Cortez told The New York Times.

Most have taken Ocasio-Cortez’ claims at their face value, praising her for drawing attention to the housing crisis and that the electoral system is designed to discourage working-class people from running for Congress.

Insert something, stupid?

But it appears that her claims of financial hardship collapse under further scrutiny, unless Ocasio-Cortez spent her savings like the 1 percent of the country and ended up cashless after the election.

Well, she is a spoiled brat who thinks the world owes her a living at a level that she finds comfortable.

She reported having between $15,001 and $50,000 in her checking account as of the end of April 2018, according to a Financial Disclosure Report she submitted to the clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Whoops! It seems she forgot that those documents are publicly available. As you can see, it shows a range, not an exact amount. For all we know, Occasional-Cortex might have $45,000 socked away.

This puts the socialist Democrat well above most American households, whose median checking account balance is $3,400, according to the latest Federal Reserve survey in 2016. Among Millennials, the median balance is about $1,400.

This also means that for her not to afford an apartment in Washington, she should have depleted all her savings – as potentially ranging up to $50,000 – in just three months when she wasn’t receiving any income.

Well, she is a CommuNazi and spending money is something they are very good at. It also appears that Ms. Occasional-Cortex is fully on board with Socialism. She wants to spend other people’s money.

Ocasio-Cortez has since backtracked from the thrust of the issue, tweeting that her apartment situation is being sorted out and she’s “working it out.”

In other words, she has been caught lying and is now ducking for cover, hoping that her friends in the CommuNazi Ministry of Propaganda, (The NY Slimes, Washington ComPost, etc), will bury the story. They will of course, that’s what they’re paid to do.

The Ocasio-Cortez campaign didn’t respond to repeated Fox News inquiries for this article.

Did Fox honestly think that Occasional-Cortex would walk into such an obvious trap? Ok, she is a moron, so it is possible that they did. In any case, Alexandria Occasional-Cortex is off to a great start. Lying to everyone about things that really aren’t that important. But then, she is a CommuNazi and lying is what they do best.
