BREAKING: MAGA world panics as Democratic star Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez smashes fundraising records by raking in $9.6 million in the first quarter of the year.

And it gets so much better…

AOC and Senator Bernie Sanders have been holding packed rallies in recent weeks, speaking out against the corrupt oligarchy that is threatening to destroy our democracy — and the donations are pouring in.

AOC’s $9.6 million haul is more than double her second highest quarter haul of $4.4 million in the summer of 2020. It’s more than five times what she pulled in during the first quarter of 2024, demonstrating real political momentum for her movement.

“AOC had her strongest ever quarter, raising over $9.5m from 266k individual donors for an average of just $21,” wrote AOC’s senior adviser Oliver Hidalgo-Wohlleben on X. “AOC doesn’t take a dollar from lobbyists or corporate PACS. Our top donor professions are teachers and nurses. 64% were first-time contributors.”

There have been rumblings that AOC may attempt to primary Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer in 2028. He pulled in $144,742 during the first quarter of 2025.

Beyond that, AOC would make an incredible president one day. She’s a fierce advocate of working people who refuses to be bought by corporations and she’s not afraid to stand up to corrupt billionaires like Elon Musk and Donald Trump.
