Word has it from the tinfoil crowd that she is an actor, hired to play the green congressman role, by a shadowy special interest cabal. Given all her lines. Cant do extempore.

I basically agree with this. I think she was chosen for her vapid mind and youngish “good looks” (as perceived by some, evidently), given some campaign financing in a district that a leftist with an IQ greater than the freezing point of water could win and then, as you say, is regularly given lines to read.
I really do believe that some version of that is true. I don’t know all the details, of course. But I think the big picture is she’s a puppet run by masters.
I've read the same. Her now Chief of Staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, started "Justice Democrats" PAC after working for Bernie Sanders. One of his heros is Subhas Chandra Bose, an East Indian anti-colonial socialist, who dreamed of a nazi-communist government for India, by whatever means necessary.
The Justice Democrats also aligned with the "Young Turks". Between them they fronted a couple of hundred Congressional candidates last election, intent on gaining a foothold in the institution for eventual takeover, but only AOC succeeded. The group interviewed potential candidates for the "job" ... I don't know if they were selecting for actors or for politicians or for something else.
Saikat Chakrabati formed several legal entities with names similar to Justice Democrats PAC and is under investigation for funneling money to them to avoid compliance with Federal Election Laws. But, he's on the side of the lawless and exempt Democrats, so he's not likely to suffer any consequences.
True. Notice how she made a big splash, to get the meme out there, and now kind of quiet.
