'Her heart is not in The Bronx’: AOC’s own district turns against congresswoman
NYPOST ^ | 3/31/19 | Isabel Vincent

Posted on 03/30/2019 9:59:53 PM PDT by DeathBeforeDishonor1

Amid her zeal to save the world with the Green New Deal, Rep. ­Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has ­ignored residents in her own Bronx back yard.

“I thought AOC would be our savior, but that’s not the case,” complained Roxanne Delgado, a local activist who said she has tried for months to get in touch with the congresswoman for help saving an animal shelter and to clean up parks in the district.

Delgado, 40, says she has made numerous calls to Ocasio-Cortez’s offices in Washington and Queens and sent a barrage of tweets after the freshman lawmaker encouraged residents during a recent visit to a Bronx public library to hit her up on social media.

But she’s heard nothing back.

“NO email or contact on @AOC’s page except DC number which has full #voicemail and no one picks up,” Delgado tweeted on Monday.

The Post made several calls to both the Washington and Queens offices last week. The same recording at both numbers gives Ocasio-Cortez’s Web site and doesn’t allow a caller to leave a message.

Another Bronx constituent told a community gathering last month that they needed Ocasio-Cortez for a sitdown with post-office officials to sort out difficulties he was having with mail delivery.

“I want AOC or a representative from AOC to be there,” Anthony Vitaliano, a former cop and Community Board 11 member, said at a Feb. 28 board meeting.

By contrast, he said, residents’ needs received much more attention under Rep. Joe Crowley, whom Ocasio-Cortez unseated in a surprise primary upset last year.

Like seriously? AOC is waaaaaayyyy to impotent to be bothered with animal shelters. There is only 11.5 years to save the earth. Give her all your money and you can be saved.

She'll be dumped. And a lot of other Democrat incumbents in Congress also.

These people have absolutely no idea how much their constituents are growing to hate them.

Not to worry. One is coming who will try to destroy it. Let’s see how that goes.

They’re certainly ripe to want a savior, but not a real one. A fake one that will lead them along that alternative path of hopey changey stuff where everyone lives in peace and harmony once everyone else is in jail or dead.

You reminded me of "A Creed for the Third Millennium" by Colleen McCullough (1985). I was a story of government manipulation to create a fake savior in troubled times. Yes, as you said that alternative path of hopey changey stuff.

I didn’t get to find out who was behind 9/11 before the thread was gone.

Don’t know if it was the gubmint or those pesky Jooooos.

(no, I don’t believe either did 9/11 but that’s just me).

Still, I wear a tinfoil hat.

But that’s just me...

AOC is too busy being our boss to be bothered doing the job she was elected to do for those who elected her.

She doesn’t do a damn thing unless her handler has his hand up her puppet hole.

.Not true. She dances, and I have yet to see anyone’s hand up anyone’s hole(s).
