Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez concealed thousands of dollars in campaign spending, an ethics complaint exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation alleges.

The Federal Election Commission (FEC) complaint cites more than $9,600 in reported campaign credit card expenditures that lacked information on the purpose of the charges. Dan Backer filed the complaint on behalf of the Coolidge Reagan Foundation, a nonprofit organization that’s levied similar complaints.

“This Complaint arises from Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s repeated, blatant violations of federal campaign finance law to conceal how she spent thousands of dollars of campaign funds. On numerous occasions throughout 2022, Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez’s authorized candidate committee, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress (‘AOC for Congress’), reported tens of thousands of dollars of disbursements for card payments and card payment reimbursements to Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez herself; American Express; and an entity called ‘Veyond!,’ which appears to have provided virtual reality services and apparently no longer operates under that name,” the complaint states.

She is from NY. I wonder if Bragg will come after her for bad book keeping.
 
Reality check:


Fact check: Did Ocasio-Cortez and her team break campaign finance law?


Ryan said that particular issue could merit an FEC investigation.

"Describing a disbursement for strategy consulting is permissible, but only if that's what the disbursement was actually for. There may be a violation here," Ryan said. "However, the FEC would likely treat this violation as very minor, particularly if the rest of the information provided for that transaction was accurate."

Ryan said a small fine could result from such a violation, not jail time.

A failed one


Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's defunct book publishing company 'owes $1,870 in back taxes'


https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...book-publishing-company-owes-1-870-taxes.html

... her total amount owed in delinquent taxes has grown to nearly $2,500.

... The congresswoman is still in the process of contesting the tax warrant. The business has been closed for several years now, and so we believe that the state Tax Department has continued to collect the franchise tax in error,” Ocasio-Cortez spokeswoman Lauren Hitt told the New York Post in May 2020. “As anyone who’s tried to contest a tax bill in error knows, it takes time,” she added.

So let's get this straight ... our resident right wing wonks are all a twitter over a 5 year old article about a CONTESTED back tax issue that is now worth $2,500.00.

Hmm, and what is Dump being scrutinized by the NYS AG Letitia James again? What's the ball park figure? And did Trump ever make public ALL of his pre 2016 campaign tax records?

But $2,500.00 is an unforgivable POTENTIAL financial crime ... IF A CRIME IS BEING CHARGED.

Chalk up another one for right wing wonks, trolls and MAGA mooks! :rolleyes:

The caller you quote here is a total ass bag butt face
 
I haven't read the other posts on this thread, but AOC is my first choice for POTUS.
She'll be just barely old enough by constitutional requirements.

People my age have fucked things up enough already.
It's not our world anymore, so it's time to give it up to the next generation.

Dear fucking idiot,


This is a political chat site


Currently Donnie is in the news non stop since he’s trying really hard to destroy democracy in America

When he’s dead people will still talk about him because he’s been horrible for American democracy

There will be colleges courses teaching just the trump era because he is sooo fucking evil and did so much damage to America

If you don’t like discussing what’s actually happening in the world maybe you should find a different kind of site to spend your 24/7 time at



Fuck you very much
