AOC and her financial and "PAC" activities have been the subject of scrutiny since coming into office.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., is under a House ethics investigation, according to a statement issued by the House Committee on Ethics on Wednesday.

The panel will announce its course of action after its organizational meeting in the next Congress, sometime in 2023, the statement said. 

Details about what the investigation is looking into haven't been released. The Office of Congressional Ethics, a nonpartisan group, forwarded its inquiry into Ocasio-Cortez to the House ethics panel in June.

Committee Acting Chair Susan Wild, D-Penn., and Ranking Member Michael Guest, R-Miss., said the disclosure of the investigation "does not itself indicate that any violation has occurred, or reflect any judgment on behalf of the committee."

It is possible the investigations pertains to allegations that AOC and her then-Chief of Staff "illegally" moved nearly $900,000 in campaign contributions "off the books," an allegation that, if proven, could include punishments ranging from expulsion from Congress to potential prison time...

Well I wonder if she has gotten mixed up with confusing campaign money with personal money?

I remember when she was first elected but before she was sworn in, she said how expensive Washington DC is, and she did not have enough money to rent an apartment.

I assume that problem was solved as she has been a member of Congress for a number of years and has been collecting her salary of about 180,000 per year.

Kabuki theatre, and gas-lighting, to get her more horse-face time in their Fake News outlets.

She and her small gang are like Trump, disruptors to the Washington elite, just on the far left instead of being conservative. Nancy and the elite never liked her, they just use her. Now she is no longer useful.

“...does not itself indicate that any violation has occurred, or reflect any judgment on behalf of the committee.”

Funny! They NEVER say that about President in Exile Trump when they’re giving him yet another rectal exam!

*SPIT*

I hope something sticks. She’s SUCH an idiot. And so are the Socialist Democrat New Yorkers who voted for her!

She’s stepped on a lot of Dem toes in congress. Don’t expect to see a rush of support to her side.

“OK, nothing will happen.”

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Exactly. And they’re doing this now while the D’s still control the process, so that when the R’s try to do it next year, the Left will scream, “But we did this already and found nothing!!!”.

There was a tip jar for the valets who park cars for the members of Congress. A lot of money was missing. Also cameras show light glinted off someone’s long central incisors.

AOC gets $174,000 a year as base salary.

One set of sources says she has a current net worth of $29 million. Two leftist “fact check” places deny that.
