On Saturday, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made a tragic announcement. She can’t go to the Sundance Film Festival.
For almost two years, a mom followed several women as we ran for Congress. I was one of them.
Due to complications from the gov shutdown, I’m sad to say I’ll miss @jubileefilms’ premiere of Knock Down the House.
This film was made, with love, for people: https://t.co/dLnurOR3ss

Um…that’s not a “complication.” It’s called DOING YOUR JOB. It’s what you signed up for. It’s WORK. Sorry you have to do it.
I think she’s extra bummed, because the documentary is all about herself.
This clip was made at the very beginning of our journey – before anyone knew what was happening. It’s wild to see now.

*insert eyeroll here*
Due to me having to do the job that I'm paid for, I can't go enjoy a movie that will stroke my ego.

Basically, yes.
Oh my gosh! Though mean you have to work? The tragedy!

Meh– more like “work.”
You can’t attend Sundance because of complications from the shut down?!? Really?!? You still got paid!! I feel so bad for you! NOT!

It's great to know that the tax payers won't be funding another democrat vacation this month

If you consider #resisting and saying stupid things her “job,” then sure. That’s what she’ll be doing.
