From the New York Post: Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was photographed flying first-class to a Bernie Sanders event last month — with critics saying it shows how she battles inequality one “mimosa at a time.”
An incredulous passenger snapped AOC getting comfy in the roomy first-class cabin of JetBlue Flt. 511 on March 19 that departed from JFK Airport in Queens for Las Vegas, where she spoke at a Sanders rally titled “Fighting Oligarchy.”
The next day, the equality-spouting darling of the far left headlined “Fighting Oligarchy” rallies along with her socialist comrade, Sen. Sanders of Vermont, in North Vegas and at Arizona State University in Tempe.
“Nothing says, ‘Power to the people’ like ignoring voters looking to say hello and reclining in first class while tweeting about income inequality,’” the flier who took the photo told The Post — claiming that AOC did not respond to friendly comments once she sat down.
“AOC is fighting the system one first-class mimosa at a time,” said the passenger, Tracey, who is from Brooklyn and was sitting in the economy cabin.
Social media is pouncing on the photo of the Democrat socialist enjoying the comforts of First Class on the flight.
Former Trump campaign official Tim Murtaugh mocked, “So great. How can she be expected to Fight the Oligarchy™️ without priority boarding, extra legroom, complimentary drinks & hot towels?”

““Equity” is only for the masses -not for the elites like AOC. God help our nation if this radical ever gains majority support,” wrote The Conservative Read.

The below video reminds me of that COVID-era video of a huge team of masked servants getting AOC ready for the Met Gala by working on her hair, nails, feet, and dress while she and her boyfriend lounged around unmasked: https://t.co/33sL77c9qC pic.twitter.com/aVYVFUtxs9
