Regardless, absent a wavier from House Ethics, family members have to be volunteers. AOC’s office apparently doesn’t believe in having unpaid workers, as according to Chakrabarti they have no volunteers in the office.
So Roberts is designated as staff but also isn’t on AOC’s staff, even though he showed up Friday morning in the House directory as processing into her personal office as a staffer. In other words his staff status, like his spouse status, is akin to Schrodinger’s cat

Who cares? This isn't news! And neither is the Chicago noose scandal. And the libeled Catholic kids aren't news either!

The only news that counts is that there are white terrorists everywhere, surrounding us everywhere you look!

Why there's even one in Maryland. And there's a white one in Maryland.

And there's a white Coast Guard terrorist in Maryland. And there's a white terrorist Coast Guard lieutenant in Maryland.

And there's a white Coast Guard guy in Maryland with a whopping 1000 bullets in his home. And there's even a white Coast Guard Lieutenant terrorist with automatic weapons in Maryland!

Literally everywhere you look, surrounding us on all sides, are these dangerous white terrorists who are out to kill everybody on the left. So quit paying attention to all these insignificant news items

</sarcasm>

Based on her grumbling about wanting to start getting paid the day after her election, she's all about the $benjamins$. So I'm not surprised that she's done this sort of thing. The thing that initially did surprise me was that it is being reported on.

Then I thought about it. Who in the dem power base actually likes her? Her statement that she would work to unseat colleagues who are not communist enough by primarying them alone would make her hated. Add her flippant dismissal of Joe Leiberman ("who dat? New party") surely didn't endear her to the old guard power brokers in the smoke filled back rooms. And the way she shows Pelosi the back of her hand, queen Bee isn't for that! Her sucking the air out of the room everywhere she goes can't be good for these narcissists either. And finally her scuttling this Amazon deal in NYC has probably made her poison within the city dem party.

Who are her allies? A handful of new young communists that just got elected and Bernie Sanders. Everyone else in DC either resents her or considers her an upstart. So yeah, I suppose it's no surprising to see an effort to knock her down a peg.

Her problem is that she has made enemies within the dimoKKKRAT party and she will not get the protection that she would normally get. The media will help in going after her.

Taking to Twitter, Thompson lays out a case where Ocasio-Cortez’s boyfriend was paid $6,000 by a PAC owned by Saikat Chakrabarti, now her chief of staff, at a time “when her campaign was running out of money.”

The PAC is affiliated with Justice Democrats, a collaboration between Chakrabarti and Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks, Thompson noted.

Who might Saikat Chakrabarti be. Again there are no coincidences at this level!:

I think people like AOC help patriotic Americans advance our ideals. Also, the commies may be useful in removing this awful cabal that is entrenched and actually still running America. I knew “they” would target her and any real commie in much the same way “they” target PT.

I’m not convinced her 15 minutes of fame are up, nor am I convinced that she won’t be around for some time to come.

15 minutes after she breaks wind the news media is telling us about how sweet it smells.
