AOC Supports Boycott of Uber, But Her Team Has Taken $2K Worth of Rides In One Quarter Alone
Foiled again!
While Democrat Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY) appears to back a boycott of Lyft and Uber, she forgot that she and her team have taken $2,000 worth of rides in just a few months alone.
D’OH!
How about them apples?
From Free Beacon:
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) came out in support of striking Uber and Lyft drivers on Wednesday and asked her followers to boycott the rideshare companies, but campaign finance records show her team spent nearly $2,000 on rides through them in just three months.
The boycott call from the New York socialist comes as drivers for the two companies went on strike to protest for higher wages. One of the biggest protest sites is in Ocasio-Cortez’s district in New York City, which has been ground zero in the fight between rideshare and traditional taxi services.

????Labor, labor – read all about it!
Your Direct Action for today: Don’t take an Uber or Lyft just for the day. (Just today! Cabs are fine! You can do it!)
It’s a small but big way you can help all the drivers you’ve met get paid more to feed their families + support themselves.

Republican Congressman Steve Scalise (LA) was nearly murdered by deranged left-wing activist James Hodgkinson in June 2017.
If a Democrat representative had been shot in the Trump era, we’d be talking about it to this day.
Scalise sent a tweet calling out Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) for wanting to raise taxes to 70%.
See it:
Republicans: Let Americans keep more of their own hard-earned money
Democrats: Take away 70% of your income and give it to leftist fantasy programs https://t.co/NxJPSCqvrt— Steve Scalise (@SteveScalise) January 5, 2019
Alexandria responded.
You’re the GOP Minority Whip. How do you not know how marginal tax rates work?
Oh that’s right, almost forgot: GOP works for the corporate CEOs showering themselves in multi-million💰bonuses; not the actual working people whose wages + healthcare they’re ripping off for profit. https://t.co/R1YIng2Ok1

Scalise sent another tweet that combined some responses from AOC’s “radical” supporters:
Hi @AOC. Happy to continue this debate on the Floor of the People’s House, but it’s clearly not productive to engage here with some of your radical followers. #StayClassy pic.twitter.com/lZCO3oiLUZ

If only James T. Hodgkinson had better aim 🤷♂️

Now, I would NEVER say it was a shame that James Hodgkinson didn't have better aim. That would just be a terrible thing to say. That being said…………………
