AOC facing jail time.

At this point I cannot make a decision on whether this would end up with her in jail.  The story is just starting so time will tell, but I doubt it considering she is now the darling of the left.  I do have a slightly related question though, if Bernie Sanders were to choose her as a running mate in 2020 and they win, and a year later Bernie kicks the bucket, is she allowed to be President?

The minimum age for the VP is 35.  She is not eligible.

Where in the Constitution does it say the VP has to be 35?  She would have to be 35 to serve as President which means that if she were VP and a vacancy occurs, it would go to the next in line as long as they met the Constitutional requirements.

The 12th Amendment to the Constitution.

Yep, found it.  I often wonder why pundits have suggested Bernie should pick her as a running mate.

She has been hit with another charge:

 

https://dailycaller.com/2019/03/06/aoc-twitter-violations/

 

A Washington, D.C.-based ethics group is claiming that New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s social media usage violates House ethics rules against using taxpayer resources for political purposes.

Ocasio-Cortez’s political Instagram account contains direct links to her House Instagram account and includes a link for political contributions, alongside posts of official video footage on the House floor, according to a complaint Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) plans to file Thursday with the Office of Congressional Ethics. The group claims these actions violate House ethics rules.

“In a way, it’s a straight forward complaint,” Kendra Arnold, executive director of FACT, told The Daily Caller News Foundation. “Broadly speaking, the rules clearly define that politics and government works cannot overlap. There are reasons for that: mostly because we don’t want our taxpayer dollars going toward campaigns.” FACT is a nonprofit group whose past president was Matthew Whitaker, an attorney who served as President Donald Trump’s acting attorney general in 2018 and 2019.

 

She may have more enemies amongst the Dems than the Repubs.

They're really getting desperate now. Anything to distract from Trump's legal problems I suppose.

Well promising to help deselect her comrades probably is not helping.

To which “legal problems” do you refer?

I hope her and Omar stay on the front page into 2020.

Are you talking about the leaders of the Democrats?  You may be right.

I don't recall the Trump seeking his nomination from the Dems. Project away.

So who is the "they're" in your statement?  It certainly couldn't be Trump.  Regardless, Nancy is doing a stellar job at keeping the House in line, so it certainly is not a stretch to think the "they're" in your statement is referring to the Democrat leadership, many animals do in fact eat they're young.

I heard yesterday that Talib is supposedly going to file impeachment paperwork next month on some supposed crimes that she can't name.

The guys at work give me ####### because I listen to MSNBC on SiriusXm at my desk on the computer just to hear what they are saying and it's nice to get another perspective on stuff. What sucks is the network has been so crappy the past couple of days I haven't been able to stream it. 

 

I would suspect that they would be talking about her because she is from Michigan right?
