Lefty firebrand Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) spoke out on her suburban high school yearbook pic — but still continued to dodge her Westchester County upbringing.
“I’m proud of how I grew up and talk about it all the time,” AOC said on X Friday. “My mom cleaned houses and I helped. We cleaned tutors’ homes in exchange for SAT prep.
“Growing up between the Bronx and Yorktown deeply shaped my views of inequality & it’s a big reason I believe the things I do today!”
But the Democratic congresswoman’s “Bronx girl” claims have repeatedly come under fire, with folks in the northern Westchester community remembering her as Sandy Cortez from Yorktown Heights.
“She’s embarrassing herself for doing everything possible to avoid saying she grew up in the suburbs instead of the Bronx,” state Assemblyman Matt Slater (R-Yorktown) said Sunday.
“She has said she visited extended family, she has said she commuted,” Slater said. “Now she’s in between. It’s clearly desperate attempts to protect the lie that she is from the Bronx.”
Ocasio-Cortez, who represents part of the Bronx and Queens, traded online barbs with President Trump last week after she called for his impeachment for bypassing Congress on the Iranian airstrikes.
Trump called the liberal firebrand “one of the ‘dumbest’ people in Congress,” leading Ocasio-Cortez to rip into the commander-in-chief in a series of tweets.
“Also, I’m a Bronx girl. You should know that we can eat Queens boys for breakfast. Respectfully,” Ocasio-Cortez said in reference to the president’s Queens childhood.

Now, about those claims that AOC likes to eat corn on the cob through a picket fence ... have pictures or video been found yet?
She is a liar!
Go make me a sammich.
“My mom cleaned houses and I helped.”
Just like the Shake and Bake Chicken?
Yorktown girl

Let’s see the democRATS run a presidential campaign where Que Mala is the presidential nominee, Ocrazio-Cortex is the VP nominee, and Jasmin Crockett is the campaign manager.
Wha-ha-ha-haaaat? You and your mom took jobs away from hard,-working, tax-paying illegals? Did you wipe your customers' asses, too?
What’s with this talk of eating someone or something for breakfast?
Remember last year, the Democrats ran an ad of supposedly rough tough men, and the heavy set actor said he ate carburetors for breakfast?
I know it’s a figure of speech, but don’t quite understand where it came from.
A new twist to an old lie!
She is a fraud and an idiot; he supporters are much the same.
Good question.
Strange...
If the people believe this lie and aren’t smart enough to check for themselves, then they are simply slaves on AOC’s plantation. She is counting on their blind stupidity.
short definition I found
have someone for breakfast....... deal with or defeat someone with contemptuous ease. informal
I’d say its a form superiority....oneupmanship. AOC is showing her contempt of Trump and his Queens upbringing.
The only thing that matters is the loyalty to the party.
Soon John Fetterman is going to find that out. He won't be able to win in the primaries the next time.
Even dumber since cars haven’t had carburetors for decades.
She’s been livin’ in her Yorktown world...
Bet she’s never had a blackened eye,
Bet her mother never stole her guy...
👏🏼
It ain’t friiied ...
