This woman is an ongoing comedy skit.
Has there been a week since she won her primary when she hasn’t said something good for a chuckle?

I highly doubt that she even drives. You have to pass a test to get a drivers license.

Are we going to follow this chick on dates for the next two years? She's a Congressperson, so in a short time she'll be filthy rich. You couldn't afford to take her on a date.

With a mouth like that, no wonder she’s tired.

Taking a break warrants an "announcement" ?
The drama is strong with this one

...travel to Boston U and find out how she managed to garner a degree in economics... Perhaps that school, or at the very least that department and degree program, is a complete farce. She obviously knows less than nothing about economics. She actually has negative knowledge on the subject - she is sure she knows things which are in fact just plain wrong.
The other alternative is that she "earned" her degree by augmenting her assignments and evaluations using ah, shall we say, "other skills."
I'd put either possibility at about equal probability, with either being about 2 orders of magnitude more likely than she actually knows anything and just mis-spoke.

Translation: She’s getting a makeover. Watch for an Oprah segment with before and after scenes.

Simple answer, is she’s a complete airhead, a useful idiot for the Khmer Democrats.

At least that would be more interesting than watching her undergo a facial and other personal care.
This girl gets nuttier every day:
"For working people, immigrants, & the poor, self-care is political - not because we want it to be, but bc of the inevitable shaming of someone doing a face mask while financially stressed."

Why can’t she just sleep in her office and use the exercise facilities for cleaning up like the Republicans do?

I think she’s preempting criticism of ‘bougie’ stuff that is probably habit to her.
(Last I checked, wild rice and salmon were pretty pricey...)
