    AOC ‘abuela’ story blaming Trump for hurricane woes shot down by aunt:

    We had the assistance’

    Its still trumps fault...and not a single liberal will call this disgusting loud obnoxious lying woman out for anything she does...because uhhhh shes NOT WHITE and shes a DEMOCRAT



    Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s story about her “abuela” suffering in Puerto Rico due to former President Trump appears to have been shot down by her aunt.


    The U.K. Daily mail visited “abuela” Clotilde Rivera‘s home this week and was able to speak with a woman at the residence who claimed to be the New York Democrat’s aunt.



    Assertions that Mr. Trump’s administration denied Hurricane Maria relief — and is therefore responsible for an unrepaired home — were challenged by the Puerto Rican relative.



    “I am her aunt,” she told the website, while declining to share her full name. “We don’t speak for the community. … It’s a problem here in Puerto Rico with the administration and the distribution of help. It is not a problem with Washington. We had the assistance and it didn’t get to the people.”

    Ms. Ocasio-Cortez has previously asserted in a June 2 tweet that her grandmother and others were “forced to flee ancestral homes” due to Mr. Trump‘s handling of the hurricane.

    “Just over a week ago, my abuela fell ill,” the Democrat tweeted. “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.”

    AOC will say the most outrageous and obnoxious things she can come up with.
    I seriously doubt she actually went to Puerto Rico.
    The lies she spews is record breaking.

    At least the aunt is honest where AOC is not.

    I also read that they shut down the go fund me for the abuela.

    You can always tell when liberals on this forum are losing it: They turn to either ad hom or tu quoque. You've turned to both.

    Can't get past paywall, but here's the actual story: Matt Walsh launches fundraiser for AOC's 'abuela' after Dem blamed Trump for home damage from Hurricane Maria

    ...At the time, Walsh reacted to her tweets saying, "Shameful that you live in luxury while allowing your own grandmother to suffer in these squalid conditions."

    ...On Friday, Walsh launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise money to "Save AOC's Abuela's Ancestral Home."

    "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," Walsh wrote in the campaign description. "Sadly, virtue-signaling isn’t going to fix abuela’s roof. So we are.

    Walsh continued, "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."

    ...The campaign raised over $100,000 in less than 12 hours....
    Someone in AOC's family demanded it be shut down.
