Uh oh....AOC lied again. Just kidding...I'm not surprised. Hey, AOC, why don't YOU pay to fix her home...or let her accept the money Republicans raised for her?

Puerto Rico received hurricane relief funding but it hasn't reached all the people who need help, an aunt of a New York congresswoman claims, according to a report

If the grandmother of U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has suffered in Puerto Rico since Hurricane Maria in 2017, then Puerto Rican politicians are to blame, not former President Trump.

That’s the assessment of an aunt of the New York Democrat, who was interviewed in Puerto Rico by Britain’s Daily Mail.

Ocasio-Cortez made headlines earlier this month after posting photos from the Puerto Rico home of her 81-year-old grandmother, or "abuela," Clotilde Rivera, and claiming that the residence remained in disrepair, nearly four years after the hurricane, in part because "Trump blocked relief $ for PR."

But when a Daily Mail reporter visited Rivera’s home this week, a woman there who claimed to be AOC’s aunt said the congresswoman’s story wasn’t accurate.

The aunt noted that the Category 5 hurricane caused extensive damage to the island – but insisted Trump wasn’t to blame for residents struggling to receive aid.

MATT WALSH SAYS AOC REJECTING MONEY FOR ABUELA IS ‘SCANDALOUS’: ‘THEY COULD HAVE HELPED THE WHOLE COMMUNITY’

"It’s a problem here in Puerto Rico with the administration and the distribution of help," the aunt told the Daily Mail. "It is not a problem with Washington. We had the assistance and it didn’t get to the people."

After Ocasio-Cortez’s June 2 posts on Twitter, conservative commentator Matt Walsh fired back at the congresswoman, saying it was "Shameful that you live in luxury while allowing your own grandmother to suffer in these squalid conditions."

Walsh later raised more than $100,000 for Ocasio-Cortez’s grandmother until the online campaign was ended – but the congresswoman’s family declined to accept the assistance.

HOGG HEAVEN, FL—Activist David Hogg, who is known for his fight to ban guns and his MyPillow competition, has launched a new campaign to ban assault donations like the ones used on AOC’s abuela.

Last week, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was terrifyingly attacked by right-wing assault donations orchestrated by poverty assassin Matt Walsh.

“The threat from assault donations is real and it has to be our generation to stand up and do something to stop these vicious philanthropy-terrorists!” Hogg said to a crowd of supporters at the first #banAssaultDonations rally.

The group led by Hogg plans on whining at congress people until they pass an outright ban on the harmful weapon. “This isn’t a constitutional issue. No where in the Constitution does it say that crazed right-wingers can donate money to help someone in need. This type of thing could put government out of business and it needs to stop now!” Hogg said.

The movement has already raised over $1 million on GoFundYourself.

“To those politicians who say change will not come, I say we will not stop until every man, every woman, every child, and every American can live without fear of having people donate money to their grandmother!” Hogg added.
