They all enter office poor and leave millionaires. How blind is this country?
Specially Obama
Math is racist!
@@LuisDiaz-gq5qx dont forget the clintons they are actually worth more than a billion
@@LuisDiaz-gq5qx
And pelosi. The Clinton crime family
The Clinton's 😮
AOC is only worth $125K she's not even good at graft and corruption like other democrats 😂
AOC’s mother is Puerto Rican. She’s not an immigrant.
Puerto Ricans are not immigrants, they are citizens. Of this country.🏴☠️
She was raised in Westchester and had a wealthy family
@@jillhetherington6040
Middle class. Not wealthy, but still, middle class. You could tell, because as soon as dad was unable to work, the family got into financially difficult times.
I'm not an AOC supporter, but I like being fair, when tearing apart politicians I don't like.
@@direbearcoat7551she was raised in Yorktown Heights ny look up the prices
@@direbearcoat7551sounds fair👍👍. Me too
I just came to a realization that the squad in the democratic party is a younger version of The View.
In what way?
😆
@@chavonj4680 in every way!
@@richardfinney5539 that doesn’t tell me anything I don’t know anything about the view I just know people dislike the show
With the same foul odor ......
Make AOC jobless again
Ms. Ed need to go back to bar tending
@@JayDarko-zn7oywhy? Right now she's getting better pay and benefits, and has to do less work.
She should go back to doing ornpay...
Before she gets a government pension for life.
She's a hypocrite!!
This lady is not worth the money she's being paid. Waste of taxpayers money
No kidding. Did’t go to work in 2020 because of her fear of catching covid , at least in DC. Apparently , the Miami variant was less virulent.
depends on. your POV, those that are paying her believe she's worth every cent.
@@Steve-yr5vi True, she could be getting paid to do exactly what she's being paid to do. She's doing a great job at playing stupid, or is she playing lol
@@Steve-yr5vi yep her district is turning into trash.
At least she's working, unlike the entire republican party. It's the same for the majority of congress regardless of party. The republicans have stuffed their pockets while accomplishing nothing as they fight against every effort to improve American lives.
the biggest hypocrite in the country
@@chavonj4680 What are you talking about? We're talking about AOC and you're espousing defund the police nonsense. Drugs. Stay off.
Speaking to the officer and obtaining some info or calling 911 would have been common sense before opening the door with a pistol in his hand. Too many people would rather be 'stupid & right' rather then 'sensible & alive'.
@@KP-zj3zj it’s not sensible that in a so called free country you can’t open your own front door
Tough to decide on who is the BIGGEST hypocrite from the left.😂. Its a big fkn list unfortunately
Liar, she's worth over 2mil, got busted stealing over 1mil for her campaign manager, don't lie
Campaign manager is her boy friend his name is Reilly Robert.
Google busts your lie in seconds.
AOC is worth between 1 to 15,000 in her checking account and 1 to 15,000 in her savings account she has a student debt of between 10,000 and 50,000 this is a fact that you can look up
They sweep all of their crimes under that GIANT liberal rug ...
Remember in November
@@douglemay7989I don’t know what AOC has or doesn’t have but I do KNOW that Goggle is NOT to be trusted.
All these public servants are crooked af
All are crooks! Term Limits
Use your power! File claims for damages against their bonds! That's why they have them!
Yesterday
AOC becomes a rich woman.
TAX Rich!!!!!!!
I can imagine she burned her tax the rich dress.
Tax the millionaires! I mean the billionaires…
@@georgetekAOC “millionaires pay their taxes,tax the billionaires!!”
@@JamesNorelli-lo4ke It’s even better if you read it in Bernie’s voice.
The people she represents are poor. And she’s not helping them. She’s an embarrassment for this country.
WE LOVE HER!🥰
@@yepyep340 Why? Please explain 😅
yepyep340, Why do you love her? Your arrogant about your ignorance!!
@@matthewbrice6202that makes no sense, what such “ignorance” is their own opinion?
@@chavonj4680 Makes perfect sense. She's horrible and if you support her and don't know why, that is how you are arrogant about your own ignorance. Not difficult at all.
Also she took a year off after college and went road tripping with her friend… this is all just BS
And she’s “still tripping!”😂
Allegedly fighting foreclosure on the NYC apartment, but affording to spend a year gallivanting around the country. Who funded that tripping?
It starts with an 'S' followed by tripping
I'm sure she is getting paid way more than that. Every politician out there has a side hustle lobbying.
If you don't know what corruption looks like... this should define it.
No government official should be allowed to make any annual income other than their civil stipend. Period.
Has she paid off her student debt yet?
I'm sure Biden already has!!
We probably paid for her loan
I remember that she still had 39k left to pay while complaining about not being able to afford it. With her salary there's no excuse. Just doesn't prioritize it.
Probably hasn’t made any payments . How could she . $ 80,000 Tesla and 2 expensive townhouses , no money for that student loan crap.
She certainly won't leave DC poor. There are a few Democrats that dearly need to be voted out. She is one of them, but not the only one.
I can think of 3 more that need to go for sure..
She couldn't afford to pay her student loans,or move from NY to DC when she entered public service. She grew up in an affluent area of NY. This "working class" BS is absolutely ridiculous.
I AM 78, LOST MY WIFE 3 YEARS AGO AFTER 53 YEARS OF BEING MARRIED, I NOW HAVE " ALL " OF MY LIFE SAVINGS IN MY POCKET, LESS THAN $ 20, TRYING TO LIVE ON S.S.. I HAD $ 250 OF FOOD STAMPS, WHICH THEY JUST LOWERED TO $ 24 A MONTH, I CALLED THEM AND ASKED WHY THE HAD CUT, THEY SAID THEY NEEDED THE MONEY TO TAKE CARE OF ILLEGAL ALIENS. THANK YOU JOBAMA. SUM TING WONG !
When she says tax the rich she means other rich people, not herself.
Cortez .... obviously gets trader tips from Paul Pelosi .... I bet 10 bucks
Or Chuck Schumers daughters
Bernie sanders is a socialist 😂 but his wife is worth 8 million dollars 😂. Doesn’t sound like a socialist
How?
They just want you to be dirt poor. Not themselves.
Communist
Why does google say 29 million?!
On the books yes! Off the books millions 🤬
That's the problem in believeing a corrupt guy, you think everyone else is corrupt..
Bingo
Fake news 😂😂😅 nobody believes that she's not a millionaire yet!!
$125 k bs
Ask George Santos 😅
Obviously they both “like” her so we see this through their filters.
She is the worst
Seen way to many articles saying she is with millions LOL
Bad actress who has to write her lines down on paper because she can't remember them.
………..where do you think lines come from?
Reason #3578 that all Americans must force term limits to become federal law. 2 terms max, then goodbye. No lifetime insurance, no lifetime benefits, no cushy government jobs.
What BS!
It is a very sympathetic story. I wish she showed some genuine sympathy toward struggling Americans, rather than illegals and leftist elites
Explain to me then why republicans oppose ANY AND ALL legislation to improve things for Americans. Vet affairs, gun violence, poverty, healthcare, food aid, homelessness, mental health. Name ONE republican who has championed ANY domestic care legislation!
Corrupt politicians
BS.
She can't count that high..she is unable to stamp her hoof that many times..
How often does anyone count over $1000?
So AOC was making minimum wage before being elected to Congress?😂
What’s funny about that?
@@chavonj4680 You have to raise millions to be a Congressman. How do you do that working the register?
@@forever_golfer1981 that was why she was so celebrated because she did her campaigning and was so good at grassroots organizing that she beat the career politician that was in office. That was LITERALLY the whole hype about AOC, that she was a regular New Yorker getting votes by knocking on doors and not rich. She proved that you DIDNT have to be a millionaire to get elected lol
It's not hard to be elected to office by poor people when you offer them free stuff.
@@user-zg1wz8fh8f are you shaming poor people for voting for their interests? Do you equally complain about all the politicians elected because they keep voting for corporate bailouts and tax breaks for the rich?
That she makes any money from taxpayers is sad, sad, sad....
But she has a Tesla, money not a problem!
i don’t believe any of this.
Kyle Mullins must have his own truth, his own facts and does not know that one can use the Internet to do research these days. Please report in honesty and not what you want to be the truth.
She ever get her grandma roof fixed ?
way more than AOC is worth i know that
Funny what American rip off
Yeah? How rich are her parents? They lived in chappaqua... Where the clintons live.
Didn’t he say her father is dead?
@curly__3 - no, they lived in Yorktown Heights, which is north of Chappaqua. Both are in the same county of Westchester. Taxes were cheaper in Yorktown than Chappaqua when her family lived there and they probably still are. Chappaqua is very upscale.
If one parent went to college , then typically that makes you middle-class and not working-class.
*I would like to see AOC debate with anyone who does not agree with her, AOC only spends her time in an echo chamber. AOC never debates with anyone who disagrees with her. I and many others would love to see that debate. The obvious one would be the 2 people most people hate, AOC and MTG, that would be the obvious debate everyone would like to see. I think AOC has been challenged to a debate many times but she always weakens out.*
Mith McConnell is worth over $30 million.
His Communist Chinese wife is worth many times that.
And Pelosi is worth well over $100 million -- this crosses patty lines and it's a huge problem!
Shameful. It belongs to American citizens
And Nancy Pelosi is worth over $200 million, this is an issue that crosses party lines. There is a small handful of members in Congress and the Senate who are trying to get insider trading stopped, term limits set, lobbyists done away with, and big super pacs banned. However, the MSM and the uniparty have worked overtime trying to convince the people that they are evil tyrants -- the irony is incredible since they are pushing things to help prevent politicians from having too much power. 🤣
Ruth Bader Ginsberg said that one of her biggest regrets was ruling that big businesses can make political doubts. And I believe it was the Republicans who pushed the hardest for this, and now it is the Republicans pushing against it. If we don't get insider trading and cooperate donors out of our government, we are screwed. We will just keep moving away from capitalism and towards crony-capitalism. I encourage everyone to actually take the time to watch all public Senate and House hearings - Don't trust any news source to give you the "highlights" or summarize what happened. Same goes with any Supreme Court rulings - make sure you read what the judges right and listen to any and all discussions that are had. All bills are open to the public too. Watch all speeches and news conferences in their entirety. It is the best way to make sure you're actually informed. If you watch any of these hearings just once, and then go listen to how the different news outlets cover it, you will never trust them again to give you all of the relevant information you need. Yes, this can be very time-consuming, but when you consider how much time you spend trying to follow different news sites and read different articles -- you will be spending about the same amount of time while actually getting all of the information.
More than enough to pay for her own student loans...................
Who wants to bet $125,000 isn't the real number?
B.S. what is her husband's net worth? That's where she is stashing it.
She’s not married
She has filed a couple of disclosures declaring him as a spouse, but her people say she's not married. Sketchy
@@davegiddings2545 oh, maybe they are, idk what are disclosures??
@@chavonj4680 There are various forms members of congress have to submit to disclose information about their finances, travel (gov related), etc.. She marked him as her spouse on two such disclosures.
@@davegiddings2545 oh ok I’ll def look into that thank you
Anything over a dollar is too much
We need to go to space at night when the sun isn’t out.
An architect isn't working class...that's easily middle class.
Middle class is working class what are you saying? What would be middle class then?
@@chavonj4680 I’ve always found it to be a puzzling term considering that the middle class are made up of working people and families.
@@terilandi6269 agreed. even “upper class” people work lol Bill Gates and Steve Jobs surely didn’t build Microsoft and Apple in their sleep. And “lower class” people who are slaving away but not making enough money to be “middle class” are ALSO working, sometimes even harder than the middle class.
And no matter what class you’re in you’re also capable of NOT working, someone surviving off of welfare, someone surviving off of being a low level landlord, and someone else surviving off of daddy’s money are all equally “not working” much too. Genuinely a strange choice of words in any instance.

@@terilandi6269 test
who paid her student loan account?
A o c worth about 6 million dollars
There has to be a law to stop this sort of crap . Otherwise why bother having a congress ?
This is so inaccurate it's insane!!
morally bankrupt.
Lier.. Netflix gave her 10 million he doesn't know about her Swiss banks account
Who’s this guys Misleading
New Yorker 😳😳😳
The question IS NOT how much she made ...
The question is HOW did she make it!
Because Her Campaign Manager Would Never Lie To Try And Get More Votes
This ad brought to you by the re-elect A.O.C. committee.
Her brother Gabriel ASKED her if she wanted to run for office, she said “F-it, sure, whatever”, and he filled out a form from a recruiter ‘Brand New Congress’ and hit ‘ SEND’. That’s how she was ‘inspired’. 🤣
*Heard she is worth over 20 million*
i still remember when they asked her what sport she would suggest the usa to add when the olympics comes to America she said "the upside down back stroke" the reporter asked "you mean the freestyle" she said "no freestyle isnt a event Americans should participate in". lol best i could think up. i cant stand dramatic people and AOC is one of them.
AOC / Gumba
Rico Not a Crime
Our Argument
50 Years
if she makes 174k a year she's at least made 3/4 of a million. it wouldn't be a stretch to guesstimate double that
THAT IS THE AMOUNT YOU CAN SEE, THESE PEOPLE HAVE SECOND AND THIRD BANKS WITH OTHER NAMES ON THEM OR SAFE DEPOSIT BOXES FULL OF GOLD, GOBS OF CASH UNDER THE BED!
Her boyfriend is ridiculous , allowing her treatment directed at him. Worse , the treatment is nationally known . He may jump.
If they chose to tax the stupid we'd never have to worry about revenue for the Government ever again...
Didn;t Truman say something like, show me a rich politician and I'll show you a crook.
Oh, but now she is rich so forget about the tax.
I really appreciate your reporting. Thank you for your honest fair reporting.
Here in the US but also in the UK most colleges and universities cannot remain financially solvent without foreign students who graduate often enough without debt paid by foreign governments not citizens. How beholden are our academia on foreign governments influence?
Thank you Harriet, as a true blue all American supporter I had no idea some of these student protesters were not students of the schools they were protesting at. I had no idea that foreign Muslims organizations were financing these protests but I do now. Wyoming did good with electing Representative Congresswoman Harriet Hageman. God bless America and Representative Congresswoman Harriet Hageman.
5 more years she will be a multi millionaire
Not sure i would say someone who is an architect would be working class.
I once worked for her party & district...She has let us down 😢 / She & her Uncle Bernie said: " everything should be free including your housing, education, food, transportation, phones and computers, even your clothing"--Neither can explain how to pay for same, with Bernie simply saying: "don't overthink it"--whatever that means 😮
I actually don’t even believe people are attacking someone with net worth less than $500k while there are literally billionaires in congress. Talk about low hanging fruit.
So does she have any sugar daddys. How much NOW is in her accounts and all over seas or in the Virgin Islands.
If they were sugar daddies how would that be from politics?
Aoc will have to go. Understand?
He’s 💯 lying. She’s actually worth 3.4 million since she’s been in office.
A lot more than she deserves or is worth!
I didn't even watch the video to know this for a FACT!!!!
That's not true she was chosen to run for office through an ad in the newspaper
$125 K??? I wouldn't be surprised if she had money hidden elseware.
The IRS should investigate any politician that leaves office with a substantial amount of more money than they made. When the FBI couldn't bring down Al Capone the IRS did!
So, her net worth is less than her annual salary? She makes $174,000 a year.
Gotta be worth a lot more than that. How many years at $178,000/year? Lots more than that.
No one makes it into congress without help. Plus....isn't the minimum wage for a us representative roughly $160-180,000/yr? Which means she obviously makes more than this, and has been funded by someone ....
Open society, finances all the far let's policies anyone who wants to destroy America they will back.👹💰👹
PS: "her father was an architect" doesn't sound very "working-class"--& my family suffered exactly as her's, at the same time, & I did the same in college as she to support my family after he died (an engineer) & to pay his medical bills, etc. I also once worked for her party & district, but presently she has let us down 👇 & her idea that "everyone should have everthing for free, including housing, food, education, transportation, phone, computer, even clothes"-is Nutz as neither she nor Uncle Bernie can ever explain how to pay for same (Bernie simply says: "don't overthink it " 😮--Means simply: we'll print more money & pass the debt on to your grandchildren 😢).
Hmmm, something seems off on the video.
For that Congressional seat primary, I heard/read that she won, what people have equated to, a beauty contest to be considered. Someone else must've coordinated and finded that selection process, why wouldn't they also fund her Primary Campaign?
And, how did she have time to volunteer with the Saunders Campaign if she needed to work, to help pay back her family's bill's? 🤔
I'm not saying its impossible, I'm saying she probably wasn't as financially challenged, prior to being elected, as this video is gaslighting us into thinking. 😢
Just STOP IT ALREADY . the real truth is far different. Oh yeah , by the way, he mentioned her campaign manager. What ? You think we forgot about THAT fiasco.....
Hahaha…that is laughable that she only has that….
How does a waitress, fresh out of college, while running for congress(I have so many questions), have any savings at all?
And to think, all during a time of recession, when the average American is watching their 401k tank... in real time!?!?!
Sorry bub. I'm calling bullshit...
(She's not in to you)
I didn't bother to even watch the video..I just wanted to stop in to say Hee Hawww!. Out
How is she an immigrant if she is an American from Puerto Rico
It would have been nice if they actually said what she has now like the thumbnail was leading to.
Let us see who will win.
But did she pay her student loan?
Does this guy work for her campaign ?
