Background & record

The squad photo is the product. The FEC file is a small-dollar harvest plus entertainment-industry max-outs. You can want a wealth tax and still notice that the safest socialist in America raises like a celebrity. That is not a crime. It is a constituency.

Finances

Modeled midpoints from public disclosures — not an audit of any household.

Bartender-to-Congress is the brand. The number now is salary, a book, merch, and a leadership-adjacent fundraising haul she still calls grassroots.
