Good day all. Alexandria Occasional-Cortex has been quiet for the last month or so. People may have thought she was being foolish by staying out of the news. Now she has once again opened her mouth and removed any doubt that she is a complete fool.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The back story was the news that the Trump administration was tightening up the eligibility rules on getting food stamps. Since the unemployment rate has all but collapsed, the need for people to be getting government money has dropped. However, AOC, being a Communist idiot, decided it was time to start lying again. She claims that if the new rules were in place when her father died, she could have starved. Here are the details from Fox News<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez<\/a>, D-N.Y., received pushback Thursday after claiming her family “might’ve just starved” had the Trump administration<\/a>‘s tightened requirements for food stamp recipients<\/a> been in place when her father died in 2008. <\/b>Critics claimed the freshman congresswoman misrepresented the new rule, pointing out that it applies only to childless, able-bodied adults under 50. <\/b><\/p>\n

I am so tempted to say something utterly inappropriate regarding AOC\u2019s father\u2019s death, but I\u2019m a decent person so I will hold my tongue…for now. Second, why am I not surprised that Occasional-Cortex would lie about her family\u2019s situation at that time?<\/p>\n

Ocasio-Cortez, 30, responded to the announcement on Twitter on Thursday: <\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cMy family relied on food stamps (EBT) when my dad died at 48. I was a student. If this happened then, we might\u2019ve just starved. Now, many people will,\u201d Ocasio-Cortez said. \u201cIt\u2019s shameful how the GOP works overtime to create freebies for the rich while dissolving lifelines of those who need it most.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

The New York Democrat was 19 and about to begin her sophomore year at Boston University when her father, Sergio Ocasio, died of lung cancer. It is likely her mother still would have claimed her as a dependent at that time. <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also highly unlikely that Alexandria Occasional-Cortex would have starved. I think they have this thing in colleges called a meal plan? You pay for it with your tuition? I\u2019m sure someone will correct me in the comments if I\u2019m in error. There is also the fact that at 19, AOC was legally an adult and could have gotten a job flipping burgers if she needed to.<\/p>\n

Several Twitter users also slammed the New York Democrat for spreading \u201cFake News\u201d online by implying the new rule prevents children from receiving benefits. Some users also pointed out that able-bodied adults between ages 18 and 49 without dependents can still qualify for food stamps if they train or work a minimum of 20 hours a week.<\/b><\/p>\n

Let me state this right now. No one has starved to death in the country because they couldn\u2019t get food in…I don\u2019t know, over a century? Between government programs and charities, anyone who needs food can get it.<\/p>\n

\u201cCreate ‘freebies’ for the rich @AOC? You and your radical, socialist crew believe the Forgotten men and women, every day middle-class Americans are the ‘rich’. Tax relief for hard working Americans is hardly a ‘freebie,’ Catalina Lauf,<\/a> a Republican candidate seeking a U.S. House seat from Illinois\u2019 14<\/b>th<\/b><\/sup> Congressional District, wrote in response to Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s tweet. Lauf — the 26-year-old daughter of a small-business owner and a legal immigrant from Guatemala \u2013 has been billed by some as the Republican counterweight to Ocasio-Cortez.<\/b><\/p>\n

I hadn\u2019t heard of Ms. Lauf until this story. I followed the link<\/a> in the Fox report and read what they had to say. She isn\u2019t a counterweight to AOC, (Frankly a flea has more \u201cWeight\u201d then AOC), she is dead opposite of her. Her family is exactly the ones we want to come to America.<\/p>\n

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., also blasted the Trump administration\u2019s efforts to reduce public benefits, saying: \u201cInstead of combating food insecurity for millions, connecting workers to good-paying jobs or addressing income inequality, the administration is inflicting their draconian rule on millions of Americans across the nation who face the highest barriers to employment and economic stability.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I wonder how much of her own personal ill gotten wealth San Fran Nan has donated to food pantries and soup kitchens? My guess would be ZERO! The simple fact of the matter is, to many of these programs have been abused and looted by the people they are allegedly meant to help. The original idea was that this aid was temporary, something to help while you were down on your luck.<\/p>\n

For AOC and San Fran Nan, it\u2019s meant to be a tool to keep as many people as possible dependent on the Democrat Party. They continue to vote for the Democrats, they will continue to give them free stuff at the expense of everyone else, excluding themselves. As for Alexandria Occasional-Cortex? Well, she can always go into the Adult film industry. I hear they pay well.<\/p>\n
