For AOC it is all about virtue signalling; she doesn't actually want anyone helping her abuela and her neighbors.

AOC is looking stupider by the day... AOC’s aunt says blame Puerto Rico pols, not Trump, for ‘abuela’ misery: report Puerto Rico received hurricane relief funding but it hasn't reached all the people who need help, an aunt of a New York congresswoman claims, according to a report https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ao...-rico-pols-not-trump-for-abuela-misery-report If the grandmother of U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has suffered in Puerto Rico since Hurricane Maria in 2017, then Puerto Rican politicians are to blame, not former President Trump. That’s the assessment of an aunt of the New York Democrat, who was interviewed in Puerto Rico by Britain’s Daily Mail. Ocasio-Cortez made headlines earlier this month after posting photos from the Puerto Rico home of her 81-year-old grandmother, or "abuela," Clotilde Rivera, and claiming that the residence remained in disrepair, nearly four years after the hurricane, in part because "Trump blocked relief $ for PR." But when a Daily Mail reporter visited Rivera’s home this week, a woman there who claimed to be AOC’s aunt said the congresswoman’s story wasn’t accurate. The aunt noted that the Category 5 hurricane caused extensive damage to the island – but insisted Trump wasn’t to blame for residents struggling to receive aid. "It’s a problem here in Puerto Rico with the administration and the distribution of help," the aunt told the Daily Mail. "It is not a problem with Washington. We had the assistance and it didn’t get to the people. After Ocasio-Cortez’s June 2 posts on Twitter, conservative commentator Matt Walsh fired back at the congresswoman, saying it was "Shameful that you live in luxury while allowing your own grandmother to suffer in these squalid conditions." In her June 2 Twitter thread, Ocasio-Cortez claimed the Trump administration "had a major role" in preventing many Puerto Ricans from receiving hurricane relief funds. But she added that much of the problem was "systemic," and also blamed "La Junta," the island’s fiscal control board, as well as local leaders. Walsh later raised more than $100,000 for Ocasio-Cortez’s grandmother until the online campaign was ended – but the congresswoman’s family declined to accept the assistance. In her June 2 Twitter thread, Ocasio-Cortez claimed the Trump administration "had a major role" in preventing many Puerto Ricans from receiving hurricane relief funds. But she added that much of the problem was "systemic," and also blamed "La Junta," the island’s fiscal control board, as well as local leaders. he end result, she claimed, has been "policies that pushed out local families." Ocasio-Cortez then called for audits of how relief funding was being distributed – and assured her Twitter followers that Rivera was "doing okay" despite what the photos of her home seemed to suggest. "She had a place to go to and be cared for," Ocasio-Cortez wrote, then asked, "what about the thousands of people who don’t?" Hurricane Maria damaged 90 percent of Puerto Rico’s 1.3 million residences and left nearly 3,000 people dead, the Daily Mail reported.
I see dipshit Bernie in that picture with AOC. Probably he will want to have a CWIMATE CORPS too. Fucking idiots, all of em. Just as a little historical factoid that might escape AOC, the Civilian Job Corps was developed during the depression when there no jobs anywhere to be found, not when people were getting paid up the arse to sit home and receive checks while employers kept piling up more and more incentives with their begging bowls to find workers among the ranks of a workforce that does not want to work or is already being paid to not work. Having said all of that, you could very easily talk me into taking some dollars from the bullshit infrastructure programs and payoffs to cartels and dictators that the dems propose and redirecting that some of that money to Urban Work Corp for hopeless places like Chicago. With the goal transitioning younger disconnected workers into private sector after they have completed a period of service. The dems have abandoned entire places and populations on their plantations. Shameful.
Why not just budget the Parks service to hire more people to maintain and care for the forests instead of calling it some stupid Climate Corps... has nothing to do with climate... it is just more Parks and Rec staff
In fairness, righties claimed the states (cali) dropped the ball w/forest management. So what's the excuse now that the states can't squander the budge on welfare if there's a federal agency to handle it? Plus there's tons of federal land that I couldn't get an answer as how the states are supposed to handle it.
