Summary

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez denied claims that she is secretly wealthy, stating she is worth less than $500,000 and doesn’t trade stocks or take corporate money.

Her financial disclosures show modest savings and student debt.

Some conservatives on X, despite opposing her politics, praised her perceived integrity.

Accusations of political corruption have surged online, partly fueled by Elon Musk.

    Just looked him up and he looks shit.

    AOC is great because she is outspoken and holds actual left wing values compared to 99.9% of her party.

    This clown seems like a Kamala-lite with his boasting on his law enforcement and military service history.

      He’s one of the few checks that is actively trying to to regain balance to this shit show. Do not discount a lawyer at the state level.

        There’s a difference between offering opposition to outright fascism, and being the hope of the future of a political party. The bar is so low right now that I’m happy whenever I hear of someone pushing back in any amount, but AOCs passion and unrelenting sense of justice is fucking inspiring.
