Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign has once again exposed the sheer hypocrisy and wasteful spending endemic to today’s radical left. This time, it’s all about her pouring tens of thousands of dollars into luxury hotels and renting out a swanky venue linked to Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny while pretending to be a champion of the working class. The socialist starlet’s campaign finance reports reveal a jaw-dropping pattern: tens of thousands spent not on helping struggling Americans, but on cushy stays and flashy parties in Puerto Rico.
Let’s get clear on one thing—this isn’t grassroots activism. It’s a photo-op masquerading as political work. AOC claims she travels regularly to Puerto Rico to back local causes, yet her campaign splurges over $15,000 on boutique luxury hotels and more than $10,000 on fancy catering. On top of that, they shelled out $23,000 to rent a venue right where the congresswoman was spotted dancing in what looks like VIP box seats at a Bad Bunny concert. This isn’t just tone-deaf; it’s an outright affront to the hardworking Americans grappling with real problems. Instead of rolling up her sleeves, AOC is rolling out the red carpet—for herself.
The irony here is thick. While she rails against “oligarchy” and preaches socialism, Ocasio-Cortez can’t resist the lavish lifestyle that her rhetoric claims to oppose. Her “Fighting Oligarchy” tour included stops at luxury hotels that cost thousands of dollars per night. And she isn’t alone—her fellow socialist Bernie Sanders has defended private jet travel as a necessity, dismissing ordinary Americans who must wait in long airport lines. This sort of brazen double standard perfectly illustrates the left’s “do as I say, not as I do” mantra. They want to redistribute wealth, but only after spending the taxpayers’ money on themselves first.
And then there’s the troubling cultural connection—AOC cozying up to Bad Bunny. This performer, who embraces controversial, gender-bending acts and is now set to headline the upcoming Super Bowl halftime show, is hardly a unifying figure. The choice of an entertainer like him underscores the liberal elites’ blatant push to inject radical social agendas into mainstream American culture. For AOC, aligning with this circus is a deliberate move to advance her socialist and globalist friends’ efforts to “redefine” the nation—and alienate traditional Americans while they’re at it.
Meanwhile, Ocasio-Cortez continues to back socialist radicals like New York’s new mayor-elect, insisting their fight is sane despite all evidence to the contrary. It’s a disturbing signal that the taxpayer-funded sideshow isn’t ending anytime soon. Will anyone hold these leftist clowns accountable for turning public service into a high-end lifestyle? Or will America be forced to watch as they burn through our money on fancy parties and expensive lodging while claiming to fight for the little guy? How much more hypocrisy will the American people tolerate before saying enough is enough?
