Sounds like trouble in AOC-ville.
You’ve heard of AOC-ville, right? No planes or cows allowed and everyone walks around filming themselves talking smack about politics because they’re super edgy. Sounds like an awful place …
This was the quickest fifteen minutes in congressional history. #DimWit #ComradeCortez https://t.co/lBO398l54z

From Fox News:
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., reportedly has been de-listed from the board of left-wing activist group Justice Democrats, following legal and ethical questions about her affiliation with the group.
The Daily Caller reported that Ocasio-Cortez, along with chief of staff and former campaign chair Saikat Chakrabarti, have been removed from the board of the political action committee after previously holding “legal control over the entity” in late 2017 and early 2018.
Ruh-roh.
It was Justice Democrats that helped catapult Ocasio-Cortez from obscurity to an upset primary win over then-Rep. Joe Crowley to an election win in November. The group runs a recruitment program by which activists can nominate grassroots candidates for office to challenge incumbent Democrats, and Ocasio-Cortez gave her support to that push in a video in January. The group has also backed her on issues such as “Medicare-for-all” and the Green New Deal.
But we thought this was all just the evil Conservatives spreading conspiracies about her because she’s so powerful and stuff.

Color us surprised.
I’m actually surprised that they had the guts to do it. I thought she was their prized little darling.

We admit we’re a tad bit shocked they did this as well. Usually, these types of organizations circle the wagons and pretend it’s somehow just Trump’s fault or they blame the Russians.
If she hurries she can make it to happy hour back at the bar
