The Post noted:

But despite her promise to work with “designers, artists and authors that really know the urban story and help develop stories for kids,” The Post could not find any books the publishing house produced.

In addition to failing at developing any products that people would voluntarily pay money for, Ocasio-Cortez also failed to keep on top of her tax obligations, leading to her tax delinquency and eventual warrant issued against her company. In fact, it appears that she let the company go out of business, and promptly consigned it to the Memory Hole, leaving New York State’s tax collectors high and dry.

The state requires businesses to pay a corporation tax on a sliding scale based on revenue. The minimum payment last year was $25.

“The company probably got numerous letters from the state and probably ignored them,” one New York City accountant theorized.

Public records show the state dissolved the company in October 2016, which can happen when a business fails to pay corporate taxes or file a return.

The state Tax Department won’t comment on individual companies but typically files warrants as a last resort after trying to collect money.

This would ONLY be national news if she were a Republican, since she is a Communist dingbat, not a peep

Brook Avenue Press, a company she founded in 2012 to publish children’s books in The Bronx, owes the state $1,870.36 in corporate taxes, public records show.

Her company owes the state $1,870.36?

Add that to the 24 billion she cost the state, when Amazon said adios.

I know it’s NY and all but it sounds like they never sold anything so no income so why do they owe taxes? Tax the air they breathe?

In AOC’s defense... why would a company with no products and no revenues... owe any taxes?

Their twitter account has 2 followers with access to the tweets restricted to confirmed followers.

Can anybody find a book that they published?

Typical socialist. She produced nothing, and is a deadbeat.

Why is New York State funding hair-brained start-ups?

Oh, never mind.
