A conservative group Thursday filed a complaint with the Office of Congressional Ethics over an allegation that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign illegally funneled thousands of dollars through a PAC to her boyfriend Riley Roberts.

The new complaint by the Coolidge Reagan Foundation, a political nonprofit which earlier filed a similar complaint to the FEC, focuses on Roberts’ use of a congressional email account, according to reports

The group alleges that Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., used her congressional privileges unethically in setting up an email address for her boyfriend, who is not employed by her congressional office.

“This Complaint alleges Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez improperly converted U.S. House resources to her non-official, personal use by obtaining an official ‘@mail.house.gov’ e-mail address for her boyfriend, despite the fact he was not employed by her congressional office,” the complaint reads. “Moreover, it appears she obtained the e-mail address for him by falsely designating him a ‘staff’ member.”

Earlier this week, the Washington Examiner reported that two political action committees founded by her top aide, Saikat Chakrabarti, funneled over $1 million in political donations into two of his own private companies.

Ocasio-Cortez, a socialist Democrat, denied that anything illegal occurred. “There is no violation,” Ocasio-Cortez said when confronted by Fox News.

The new allegations by the Coolidge Reagan Foundation says she violated restrictions laid out in the House Ethics Manual regarding the personal use of House services and equipment.

@bigheadred

I am outraged!  If she would send me a million or two, it would be okay.
She is surely a flash in the pan, along with the other new one with the scarf (haven't paid her much attention and don't know her exact religion).  I don't recall new members of the House ever causing trouble.  These two are ridiculous.  If this one is already thought to be stealing money, get the facts and take her to court.

Too bad she’ll most likely just end up with a slap on the wrist.

I agree.  And want her to wear fishnet bodysuit and a patent leather cat suit with mask.    :bolt:

Thanks for the visual I just don't need. Her body is fine but that face... Everytime I see it I mentally hear the theme from Mr. Ed.
