POL Journalist Raises $65K To Help AOC's Abandoned Abuela

[Blacknarwhal]

Did you know that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has a grandmother? Who's sick? And living in Puerto Rico? You will know after this because, suddenly, she can't stop talking about it. And it's apparently all TRUMP'S FAULT!

I'd call her dumb, but that would imply that she can't speak. Much as I wish she'd shut up. The tweets are golden; be sure to check them out at the link.

Fair use cited so on and so forth.

Journalist Raises $65K To Help AOC's Abandoned Abuela

After Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) revealed this week that her grandmother is living in a dilapidated home in Puerto Rico, which she blamed on former President Trump, scores of people began wondering why the well-off Congresswoman (who lied about growing up poor) allowed her abuela to live in squalor while she lives it up in DC.

Trumps fault? You have 2 apartments and a Tesla...maybe you can help her out? Just saying ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just over a week ago, my abuela fell ill. I went to Puerto Rico to see her- my 1st time in a year+ bc of COVID. This is her home. Hurricane María relief hasn’t arrived. Trump blocked relief $ for PR. People are being forced to flee ancestral homes, & developers are taking them.










Confronted with her own virtue-signaling, AOC spat out a word salad.

@AOC
You don’t even have a concept for the role that 1st-gen, first-born daughters play in their families. My abuela is okay. But instead of only caring for mine & letting others suffer, I’m calling attention to the systemic injustices you seem totally fine w/ in having a US colony.

Replying to @AOC
Shameful that you live in luxury while allowing your own grandmother to suffer in these squalid conditions



And so, to help AOC's neglected abuela, Daily Wire journalist Matt Walsh set up a GoFundMe page which has raised over $65,000 in a matter of hours, becoming GoFundMe's "Top Fundraiser" for the day.

The fundraiser reads:

On June 2nd, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reported to Twitter that her dear abuela has fallen ill and continues to live in squalid conditions since her home was ravaged by Hurricane María.

One cannot be certain of the cost to repair grandma’s house, but surely most of the work could be completed for the price of AOC’s shiny Tesla Model 3.

As AOC pointed out to us, we "don’t even have a concept for the role that [incredibly successful children of two American citizens…] play in their families," but clearly caring for their own grandparent isn’t part of it.

Says the congresswoman, “…instead of only caring for [my own grandmother] & letting others suffer, I’m calling attention to the systemic injustices…”

No, seriously. She really said that.

Sadly, virtue-signaling isn’t going to fix abuela’s roof. So we are.

Let’s all kick in to help save AOC’s abuela’s ancestral home. Any amount is appreciated, but the cost of a monthly lease payment on that Tesla is around $499…

All proceeds will be donated to abuela, if she will accept them.

GoFundMe must be sweating bullets right now.

Well, she IS Puerto Rican.
Scum of the Earth.

Never under estimate the stupidity/gullibility of the masses.

Don’t forget Aoc’s book deal

Obama did the same 'nothing' for some of his poor family didn't he?

Not surprised with AOC not having the deep family tribe spirit of helping your blood. She's a mess emotionally and has sold out to the Marxist philosophy. Just like the top tier of all previous communist hierarchy, they never do without the best while they demand everyone else do without for the "good of the people"

And just how exactly is this Trump's fault again?

It's so funny how she forgets all the different times so many of the different people in charge in Puerto Rico got busted for taking all those supplies that trump sent and hiding them. Then, they used them for their own gain.
