Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez faces questions after her boyfriend gets congressional email account

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is facing ethics questions after revelations the freshman lawmaker's office gave her boyfriend a congressional email account.

The democratic socialist waded into the issue in response to a tweet alleging boyfriend Riley Roberts had been put on staff. The tweet included a screenshot of an official House email address. Ocasio-Cortez insisted that he was only given the email account so he could access her calendar.

“Actually this calendar designation is a permission so he can have access to my Google Calendar. Congressional spouses get Gcal access all the time,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote, after a political consultant Luke Thompson tweeted the picture showing Roberts having an official account like other staffers on the Hill. "Next time check your facts before you tweet nonsense."

But Jason Chaffetz, former chairman of the House Oversight Committee, said Ocasio-Cortez' claims don’t stack up.

"It’s totally naïve and inappropriate – you wouldn’t allow it in most companies, let alone the House of Representatives. There should be real consequences,” Chaffetz told Fox News.

Can you or anyone else on this forum explain why Annoying Occasionally-Coherent led the charge to drive Amazon’s new headquarters out of New York?

“Congressional spouses get Gcal access all the time”

and sometimes a Secretary of State will have email servers in their closet. These are security violations. There’s no way this can be allowed.

Hey he’s a white male and appears to be heterosexual. Most of that can be expunged by being a bisexual that identifies as a different gender but he’s still white.

I suspect Ms. Cortex will be the first Democrat prosecuted and imprisoned since Hell froze over.

Evil is never cute, IMO. She might as well be a member of ISIS, Hezbollah, or the Taliban in her attempt to destroy the USA. Nothing cute about terrorists within.
