Yes, we have.
In this thread accusations were made about AOC growing up in luxury and her family being set for life when in fact all her mom could afford from a lifetime of hard work and savings was a tiny 860 square foot fixer-upper house in a neighborhood riddled with drug dealers in a meh part of Florida. Certainly not even remotely the lap of luxury. I guess she should have instead been living in a cardboard refrigerator box to satisfy the jerks and to not have them call her a hypocrite.![]()

Brilliant reply. Go back to discussing the next tweet about first world problems - like split ends.
You sound a little defensive. Maybe Jeff should check the IP addresses...

I give zero f#cks about who consenting adults are sleeping with. Having said that, if you live on your phone you'd have seen her mom's interview about how they hoped they would get married. I think that is the genesis of that information being shared outside her circle. Again, no judgment here. You know as a millenial that politics is downwind of culture. She's trying to tie 'em together and is shocked at the clap back.
edit: ..how her mom hoped they would get married. Not that this edit matters.

I dont know, have we? Seems like the focus is just on flagrant hypocrisy now.
Seriously: what hypocrisy?
Read 7:47, for one.
Another - she continues to take regular plane flights to and from her home in NY, despite the fact that a train is available. Her reasoning - she can save her constituents 2 hours of her time.
This is a BS response for someone who would like to make plane travel unnecessary and make rail the travel of the future.
Our high speed rail is not yet anywhere near on par with what it is in other countries. And you can usually find cheaper airfare from DC to NY than you can comparable Accela tickets. Or, save $30 but now that trip's taking twice as long via regional rail. So, logistics.
She wants to fix our rail system so that we at least have more, better and more affordable high speed rail. We just aren't there yet. This is not hard stuff to understand. Stop being obtuse.
