Not Columbia University. You actually have to be very smart or rich(usually both) to get into Columbia.
She attended Boston University.

When Bill DeBlasio is right, and you are wrong, you are about as wrong as wrong can get.

"Her behavior leading up to this error on her part has shown no evidence that she has a capacity for remorse or admission of guilt."

That's true for many who identify with the Left. It is described in the Bible as a "seared conscience".
Think about that carefully and then ask yourself if you think such a person would defend you if you were made a target.
It's how Germans in nearby towns were able to ignore cattle cars and smoke rising from the crematorium.

“She thinks money just appears at the snap of ones finger?”

Not exactly. She thinks you can just print as much of it as you need. A la Maduro, that idiot in Zimbabwe whose name escapes me, the leaders of the Weimar Republic, and many others all of whom, needless to say, were and are mistaken.

“I saved so much buying this necklace that I bought a bracelet to go with it.”

HAHA! That kind of happened to me in real life one Christmas shopping season. I had seen a thing I thought a friend would love, but it was ridiculously expensive, like $70 for an earring holder. Later that year the price went down to $20. I was elated. I bought it, my friend did love it, and I probably spent that $50 in savings ten times over because I kept saying to myself: I saved so much on that gift for M., I can surely buy this other thing now!

I believe the residents feared the first part you mentioned; they were going to be displaced. The second would definitely have been a boost in a city, state, and region that desperately need it.

Alexandria Cortez and Warren Wilhelm are truly idiotic but the scary thing is that millions believe everything they say.

She reminds me of a blow up doll. The kind that my wife says I can’t have.

She does, but she also makes me think of someone who is a demagogue who would happily get millions killed in service to her delusional dreams; think Pol Pot and Cambodia.

Funny how so many mainstream “journalists” go bananas when they see anyone criticizing or even talking about She Guevera.

“No clue how business works”

Is giving some businesses massive tax credits and others nothing “how business works?”

Amazon should be ashamed of themselves.

"I keep waiting for AOC to realize that she knows nothing"

Cue Bob Dylan's "Positively Fourth Street": Do you take me for such a fool, to think I'd make contact With the one who tries to hide what he don't know to begin with?

She’s like if she went into a store to buy something on sale and it was a $500 savings on the price she’d think she had an extra $500 to spend elsewhere.

New York is going to continue to pay the high price of electing this stupid girl to Congress.

Correct, poor people that AOC actually represents may not be able to afford the rents(ARE TOO DAMN HIGH)in the area because of this. So, her peeps might actually be down with the loss of Amazon. However, those people only vote. They do not make campaign contributions or buy tickets to $2500/plate dinners. They are not the real people that get candidates reelected. Her district may be redrawn after the 2020 census due to the loss of NY population.
