Ah, these are glorious times to be alive. After years of leftists pursuing lawfare, with ever-increasing levels of brazenness and vengeance, against Donald Trump and others, finally, patriots are fighting back. It looks as if at least some of the people who attempted to frame Trump for collusion with Russia are in genuine legal trouble, and more could be coming down the pike for those who cooked up the Jan. 6 “insurrection” and other efforts to make sure that Orange Man Bad would never be able to return to the White House.
Leftists are, of course, howling with rage and fear, and claiming that Trump is politicizing the government against them, when all he is really doing is restoring equal justice after decades of an official double standard. That double standard, however, still lives. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Would You Like An Olive?) is counting on it being very much in place, and that in itself should alert Pam Bondi’s Justice Department that it’s time to give this longtime leftist media darling the John Bolton treatment, and more: arrest AOC!
The New York Post reported Saturday that AOC’s “mandatory 2024 financial disclosure documents” were “missing for months.” Back in May, when these forms were actually due, the fighting young socialist “asked for a 90-day extension,” and got it, but “missed the second deadline.” Finally, she filed the forms on Wednesday, a week after her second deadline for getting them in. Deadlines, you see, are for the little people.
On the forms themselves, AOC “reported $1,000 to $15,000 in a 401(k) from the National Hispanic Institute, where she worked as educational director before joining Congress.” The forms also showed that she has “added somewhere between $14,000 and $65,000 to her wealth in the past year.” All that’s fine, but “notably absent from her disclosure — any sign of her partner of more than 10 years, fiancé Riley Roberts.”
The House Ethics Committee has taken AOC to task for listing Roberts as her “spouse” on “some ethics forms to receive perks such as travel and gala access, but leaving him off financial disclosures so she doesn’t have to disclose his assets.” Yes, it seems as if the AOC-Roberts engagement and/or marriage is on or off depending on what answer is most profitable for the socialist congresswoman.
In fact, the Washington Free Beacon reported in May 2025 that AOC “hasn’t been pictured wearing her engagement ring since November 2023.” The ring “was a constant presence on the ring finger of her left hand during the first year and several months of her engagement,” but then it has disappeared: “since the start of December 2023, Ocasio-Cortez has given a primetime speech at the DNC, attended several televised committee hearings, appeared on the Late Show, and toured the nation on a private jet with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.), among countless other public appearances. Ocasio-Cortez didn’t wear her engagement ring to any of those events, though she frequently sported several other bands on the fingers of both her hands.”
This wasn’t about an on-again, off-again relationship; it was all about the money: “Far from being mere tabloid fodder, the legal status of Ocasio-Cortez’s relationship with Roberts also carries significant financial and ethical ramifications for the potential 2028 presidential candidate. By virtue of remaining unmarried to Ocasio-Cortez, Roberts retains certain privacy privileges not afforded to the legally married spouses of other lawmakers.”
Because Riley Roberts is not married to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, “he has been exempt from publicly disclosing his assets, stock trades, and his places of employment as a part of Ocasio-Cortez’s annual financial disclosure reports. It’s a level of secrecy not granted to the spouses of Ocasio-Cortez’s married colleagues such as Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.), whose husband’s market-busting stock trades frequently make national headlines.”
Dylan Hedtler-Gaudette of the Project On Government Oversight explained: “There is a reason Congress requires financial disclosures to include the spouses of members of Congress. If spousal disclosures were not required, it would be all too easy to exploit that loophole and simply transfer any conflicted or problematic assets or financial activity into the spouse’s name. If her fiancée is going to avail himself of some of the perks and privileges of being the spouse of a member of Congress, he should surely have to likewise comply with the less convenient parts.” Yep.
Just imagine if a Republican member of the House, especially one as high-profile as AOC, were appearing to skirt ethics rules as brazenly as this. He or she would have been frog-marched down Pennsylvania Avenue during the darkest days of the Biden regime. So let’s see some justice for AOC: arrest her! She may end up being acquitted, but there needs to be a full investigation and a fair trial. In the case of that hypothetical Republican, AOC herself would be demanding nothing less.
Why arrest her when she can just be shot?
You KNOW that’s going TOO FAR! I suspect you’re one of those leftist trolls who post outlandish crap like this to entice others to engage in discussions that might lead to THEM being in trouble!
Now I dislike her politics, but draw the line with that crap. If she’s broken laws then YES, arrest her, but calling for “shooting” is too LEFTIST!
You couldn’t be more wrong about me.
And did you know Ass Ocrazio Cortez has $67 million or so on a $170 thousand salary and that she’s hurt countless lives? Fuck her. She deserves to die. Some people deserve killing and she’s one.
Calm down now – mi heffy Jeffy sometimes writes dismissive impulses, but referring to him as a leftist troll is way off the mark that would get your CCW permit pulled
Jeff’s comments are often crass and sometimes over the top, but he often makes me laugh and I actually agree with a lot that he says albeit in a more moderate form.
mi heffy Jeffy – you seem to be more pleasant after a night of drinking and smoking crac with a toothless 70 year old crac ho –
For crimes as AOC is breaching into and lines of larceny AOC and the so-called “Squad” have crossed seeing them convicted, sentenced, stripped of all Congressional pensions and benefits and serving hard time or any time, is the message we need to send to all of USA.
Being elected to a government office is not a doorway to wealth. via larceny.
If she gets shot, she is made into a martyr and that is what the globalist main sleaze fake news lying censoring propaganda media would display for a year or two.
Look what they did with George Floyd who actually OD’d and whose vital organs were probably wasted from all the substance abuse.
There is precedent for shooting an unarmed woman in the Capitol Building.
Not t just this nutcase but also those who support and Finance the Antifa/BLM as well as those Climate Change screwballs as well as Soros(Father & Son), The Bidens(Father & Son)and two Former Presidents Obama and Clinton(Bill)and Evict the whole rotten United Nations as well Take America Out of the UN Spiderweb
it will never happen . only conservatives get jailed or arrested . the rest are above the law .
This bartender (the best job that twit could get after graduating from Boston College) became a multimillionaire only after being elected to public office (much like fellow socialist Bernie Sanders, who never had a real job until he was elected mayor of a college town at age 41) I have no doubt that she is deeply involved in criminal activity at the public’s expense. All socialists embezzle public funds- that’s why the have the “Nomenklatura” class in every socialist country.
“She may end up being acquitted, but there needs to be a full investigation and a fair trial.”
I don’t want or need a fair trial. I want the type of lawfare show trial DJT got from Alvin Bragg, Leticia James and the yellow toothed Judge Engomoron.
Then take her out back and aerate her head.
I fully agree and wold provide the ammo free of charge if that were legal. Right between the eyes, you buck toothed bitch. She looks like a donkey, which is an insult to donkeys.
Some politicians deserve to be assassinated, although in her case it would ignominious to say the best. Where is Lee Harvey when we need him? Maybe one of those mass shooter trannies will step up?
you were on a roll until you mentioned Clintonizing her
Y’all need to stop feeding this guy.
“Government, it’s a big club and you ain’t in it.” – George Carlin
Thank God – the streets will be a safer place. She’s even more unlikable than Hillary and a whole lot intellectually challenged.
She’s a fucking retard. She makes Heels Up Harris seem comparably intelligent.
investigate her and if need be try her, then follow due process.
or educate her constituents to see what she has done to make their lives as profitable as hers.
then they must vote accordingly!
Who is her financial advisor. She certainly isn’t smart enough to figure all of these financial information withholdings on her own. Somebody should be looking into this.
Follow the money
This woman is a complete embarrassment to the entire country. A wholly made up candidate bought and paid for by soros. How is this even possible?? I say hang her and get it over with.
