Alexandria Ocasio Cortez has made another error. This time she called out Democrats for accepting donations from billionaires when she, in fact, did the exact same thing.
According to The Daily Wire:
Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has spent a lot of time repeatedly demonizing billionaires and attacking other Democrats for accepting money from billionaires since entering politics.
However, Ocasio-Cortez is now under fire for once again being a hypocrite as FEC records show that Ocasio-Cortez accepted $2,700, the maximum a person can donate to a campaign, from billionaire Tom Steyer — who is now a Democrat presidential candidate — in August 2018.
“Steyer, a longtime Democratic donor who has largely funded the majority of his presidential campaign, donated $2,700 to the Queens representative’s campaign on August 29, 2018, according to Open Secrets,” The New York Post reported. “The donation was made through the former hedge fund manager’s family office, Fahr LLC, prior to his July 2019 announcement that he would seek the Democratic nomination.”
The revelation comes as the far-left 30-year-old fanatical politician campaigns for fellow socialist Bernie Sanders, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for president after failing in 2016.
Ocasio Cortez has also said that she wants to be Bernie’s vice president despite the fact that she does not qualify under the rules set forth in the Constitution.
