From the New York Post: For socialists, they’re sure a couple of high flyers!
Far-left New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was spotted exiting a private jet with her comrade in arms, Sen. Bernie Sanders, after shuttling between stops for a campaign dedicated to denouncing the wealthy.
Video from Fox News shows AOC and Sanders exiting a Bombardier Challenger 604 — despite both railing against flying private planes and the people who own them — a luxury aircraft with a lofty $5 million to $7 million price tag and costing an eye-watering $15,000 per hour to charter.
The duo hopped the swanky ride to attend a series of Sanders’ “Fighting Oligarchy” rallies, which aim to “have real discussions across America,” and take on “the oligarchs and corporate interests who have so much power and influence in this country,” the official website for the campaign states.
The two socialists have been flying around the country holding huge rallies in Tucson, Arizona; Los Angeles; Salt Lake City; Nampa, Idaho; Bakersfield, California, and other locations, as they claim they’re fighting for the working class and rage against the ‘evils’ of wealthy people, including President Trump and Elon Musk.
A website specifically set up for their tour solicits donations to help pay their expenses, and brazenly notes that it requires “a modest amount of resources” for travel expenses.
Meanwhile, AOC and Sanders are flying on a $15,000-per-hour private jet. The New York Post pointed out the environmental costs:
According to the International Energy Agency, 51% of private jets burn around 239 gallons of fuel per hour — meaning they spew more carbon emissions into the atmosphere in 121 minutes than the average person does in an entire year.
