Rep. Ocasio-Cortez’s Met Gala extravaganza is finally coming back to bite her.
When she blew up on social media at the event, we questioned whether or not this was on the up and up.
As it turns out, there could be a major violation that occurred.
Investigate!
We all remember when AOC went with her cute little custom-designed gown that said “Tax the Rich” on the back of it.
It turns out that she may have broken some rules in the process of getting that dress and her invitation.
The report states, “In 2021, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez was invited to and attended the Met Gala with Mr. Roberts.
“As part of her attendance, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez was provided with a couture dress, handbag, shoes, and jewelry.
“She also received hair, makeup, transportation, and ready-room services.
“Riley Roberts received a bowtie and shoes in advance of the event.
“While Rep. Ocasio-Cortez appears to have now paid for the rental value of the attire she wore to the Met Gala and for the goods and services she and her partner received in connection with this September 2021 event, payment for these goods and services did not occur until after the OCE contacted her in connection with this review.”
Ocasio-Cortez’s counsel, David Mitrani, responded, “Though no Ethics violation has been found, the Office of Congressional Ethics (‘OCE’) did identify that there were delays in paying vendors for costs associated with the Congresswoman’s attendance at the Met Gala.
“The Congresswoman finds these delays unacceptable, and she has taken several steps to ensure nothing of this nature will ever happen again.”
Now, the Ethics Committee will dig a bit deeper to see if there is a violation that she can be charged with or not.
Personally, I cannot wait to hear what AOC blames this on, even though it is clearly her wrongdoing.
Sorry, AOC, but you cannot blame the GOP of the bad orange man for this one.
