Gas-Guzzling Car Rides Expose AOC's Hypocrisy Amid Green New Deal Pledge
2019-03-03
[HotAir] Since declaring her candidacy in May 2017, Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign heavily relied on those combustible-engine cars ‐ even though a subway station was just 138 feet from her Elmhurst campaign office.

She listed 1,049 transactions for Uber, Lyft, Juno and other car services, federal filings show. The campaign had 505 Uber expenses alone.

In all, Ocasio-Cortez spent $29,365.70 on those emissions-spewing vehicles, along with car and van rentals ‐ even though her Queens HQ was a one-minute walk to the 7 train.

The campaign shelled out only $8,335.41 on 52 MetroCard transactions.

"Everyone ‐ top to bottom ‐ used the MetroCards," Ocasio-Cortez spokesman Corbin Trent told The Post.

#3  Greenpeace Co-Founder Rips "Pompous Little Twit" Ocasio-Cortez As "Garden-Variety Hypocrite" On Climate

"Pompous little twit. You don’t have a plan to grow food for 8 billion people without fossil fuels, or get the food into the cities. Horses? If fossil fuels were banned every tree in the world would be cut down for fuel for cooking and heating. You would bring about mass death."

Heh...

#2  The Bernie school of Socialism rhymes (somewhat) with Lenin's.

#1  I figure so long as my carbon footprint is lower than the wealthy and powerful warning me about the climate, I'll be fine.
