Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez truly despises the 1%, so much so that when she attended the world&#8217;s number one social event for the rich and famous \u2014 attended by the top 0.000002% \u2014 she wore a dress emblazoned with a slash of red that said &#8220;Tax The Rich.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Democratic socialist proved once more her hypocrisy, entitlement, and deep sense of ineligibility. According to House investigators, she had asked for $70,000 in free tickets, stiffed hotel staff and made her own dress, then tried to hide the entire mess.<\/p>\n<p>AOC makes $174,000 a year \u2014 putting her far ahead of the average American \u2014 drives a Tesla, and lives in a luxury apartment building in a posh D.C. neighborhood where even a studio apartment costs more than $2,000 a month (she&#8217;s got an infinity pool, which might equal her ego).<\/p>\n<p>This is the best part! <em>still<\/em> Not enough. She decided to be a bartender for 28 years and meet some of the most beautiful, wealthy people in Manhattan at 2021&#8217;s Met Gala. She didn&#8217;t want the cost. Please. A pair of tickets costs $70,000 \u2014 if you could get them. This is a very exclusive deal.<\/p>\n<p>So the media darling traded off her position to get an invite \u2014 helped along &#8220;after much prodding by her campaign staffer,&#8221; The New York Post <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2023\/03\/05\/aoc-begged-to-go-to-met-gala-even-if-it-meant-breaking-the-rules\/\">reported<\/a>. Anna Wintour of Vogue, the Gala&#8217;s founder, invited her to a dinner and gave her a card stating that they would be reuniting. &#8220;guests of Vogue.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Congressional Ethics Committee&#8217;s investigation into her attendance to the Gala showed that her lawyers cautioned her that she shouldn&#8217;t attend, noting that she can&#8217;t accept a huge gift.\u00a0Vogue&#8217;s parent, Advance Media Publications has a lobbyist company that prohibits lawmakers from receiving gifts.<\/p>\n<p>An attorney from AOC informed her that she was legally allowed to attend the Gala in a note sent to her staff prior. &#8220;\u2018The Congresswoman could accept an invitation from [the Met]&#8221;But not from Vogue,&#8221; he said. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-11813881\/Substantial-reason-believe-AOC-violated-ethics-committee-says.html\">according<\/a> Daily Mail. Advance Publications has been registered as a lobbyist. We&#8217;ll be even more cautious!<\/p>\n<p>This seems fairly obvious. AOC nonetheless attended and made quite a splash. <em>This<\/em> dress. Documents show that soon afterward she or perhaps her staff sought to downplay the whole thing. Damn the little people, let them eat \u2026 whatever they eat, who knows.<\/p>\n<p>The Mail reported that then, the coverup started.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>Vogue staffers reached AOC&#8217;s offices the next day to report that there had been a lot of inquiries from media about the congresswoman\u2019s attendance.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;\u2018Hope the [C]ongresswoman had a great time last night!,&#8217; a Vogue staffer wrote. \u2018We have had a number of inquiries re: AOC&#8217;s invitation and if she paid for her ticket. Mainly from Page Six,'&#8221; New York Post<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;We also alerted the museum. Given that she was a guest of Vogue, we were planning to say on background that she was a guest of Anna [Wintour]&#8217;s. Of course wanted to check with you before responding.'&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Huh. This seems to be a lot revisionist history. So, there&#8217;s that.<\/p>\n<p>The House investigation has revealed much more about AOC.<\/p>\n<p>AOC was also billed $1300 for the dress. However, her staff were able to reduce the cost by $1,100 and get the $635 price cut of the shoes. The Mail reported that they had been listed as rentals.<\/p>\n<p>After failing to repay thousands of dollars in Gala-related bills, the socialist also failed to cover $344.85 for makeup. This was passed to a collection agency. &#8220;extremely overdue.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It took her so long to repay $477.73 for hairstyles. &#8220;reached out to her staff and said \u2018it would look terrible if we had to file a complaint with the NY Dept of Labor against Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez,'&#8221; The Mail reported. Business Insider reports that she took almost one year to pay the bill. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/politics\/aoc-only-paid-for-her-met-gala-outfit-and-other-possible-impermissible-gifts-after-investigators-asked-about-it-ethics-agency-finds\/ar-AA189m9Q\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Post, it took her eight months to pay over $1,000 for Conde Nast&#8217;s transportation, and nearly one year for $4,602.92 to cover bills at Carlisle Hotel.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In addition, a publicist associated with the company that supplied Ocasio-Cortez with her rental items \u2014 a gown, a handbag and shoes \u2014 provided a final invoice to the campaign staffer in September 2021 for about $990, but it went unpaid for months. The company then identified in April that $5,579.99 worth of unpaid goods and services had been provided to Ocasio-Cortez and her partner for the event, the report said,&#8221; NBC News <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/congress\/house-ethics-panel-investigate-ocasio-cortez-met-gala-gifts-rcna73182\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s important to note that AOC paid AOC her bills only after House investigators started their investigation.<\/p>\n<p>AOC took the blame, as liberals often do. She wasn&#8217;t the problem, but her incompetent staff.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I just never, ever, ever would have allowed that to happen knowing what I have learned, but that I wasn&#8217;t privy to the invoices, wasn&#8217;t privy to the ones that had been sent,&#8221; According to her, she said that Mail reported.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And it is just a deeply regrettable situation. I feel l terrible for especially the small businesses that were impacted.&#8221; Then she made a Nixonian-style excuse. &#8220;There was a ball that was dropped.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Aw, poor AOC. She has employed incompetent people.
