Ocasio-Cortez’s ‘Career’ is Hanging on by a THREAD After Another LIE Surfaces
JULY 7, 2018
The new socialist darling of the Democrat Party is facing more backlash about false facts she’s touting in order to appear “blue collar.”
In this latest incident, involving a so-called “40-minute commute between school and THE BRONX” she was forced to go and change her bio and get rid of the lie.
Ocasio-Cortez’s bio read, “She ended up attending public school 40 minutes north in Yorktown, and much of her life was defined by the 40-minute commute between school and her family in the Bronx.”
Much of her life was DEFINED by a lie? Ok…..Because we now know, she moved from the Bronx when she was 5-years old and grew up in one of the richest counties in the United States.
That’s a very far cry from the “Bronx.”

As more information is coming out about New York Democratic Socialist congressional candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, it is becoming less and less surprising that she seems to be stretching the truth about her past.
In case you haven’t heard, the 28-year-old beat Rep. Joseph Crowley in the Democratic Party primary in a district that represents parts of the Bronx and Queens.
During her four years working at a restaurant called Flats Fix, Ocasio-Cortez reportedly refused to share tip money at the end of a very busy Cinco de Mayo celebration in 2017.
According to Richard Johnson, a staff writer for The New York Post’s PageSix.com, “At the end of the night, when it came time to split the $560 in tips she had gotten at the bar, Ocasio-Cortez gave the waitress only $50. After the waitress complained to her manager, her take was doubled to $100, a source said.”
Johnson quotes the waitress as saying, “It says so much about her character. from that point on, I wouldn’t talk to her. I couldn’t look at her.”
True socialism would dictate that all of the tip money from that night’s haul at the bar be divided equally, with no consideration given to who worked harder than anyone else.
One particular “fact” that Ocasio-Cortez has been touting has also come into question and has even forced the candidate to change her bio.
According to The Journal News, Ocasio-Cortez’s bio originally read, “She ended up attending public school 40 minutes north in Yorktown, and much of her life was defined by the 40-minute commute between school and her family in the Bronx.”
She recently told Stephen Colbert, “Well, you know, the president is from Queens, and with all due respect — half of my district is from Queens — I don’t think he knows how to deal with a girl from the Bronx,” according to Breitbart News.
