Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez by bankrolling the campaign of her business-friendly Democratic primary opponent, Michelle Caruso-Cabrera, campaign records reveal.<\/p>\n<p>Among Caruso-Cabrera\u2019s donors include Blackstone CEO Steve Schwarzman and Goldman Sach\u2019s CEO David Solomon. Both gave the maximum $2,800 for the Democratic primary against the far-left freshman AOC.<\/p>\n<p>Five other Blackstone employees and three other Goldman Sachs executive also donated to Caruso-Cabrera, according to the Financial Times.<\/p>\n<p>Home Depot co-founder Ken Langone and his wife, Elaine, kicked in a combined $11,200 to Caruso-Cabrera. They gave maximum each for primary ($2,800) and <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> election ($2,800) \u2013Caruso-Cabrera can only spend half of that for the primary.<\/p>\n<p>The Post previously reported that pro-Trump Republicans and corporate-types contributed to Caruso-Cabrera\u2019s campaign as well as an anti-AOC Super PAC partly financed by her husband, investment banker and GOP donor Stephen Dizard.<\/p>\n<p>Caruso-Cabrera, a former business journalist and CNBC host, is challenging Ocasio-Cortez in next Tuesday\u2019s June 23 primary in the 14th congressional that takes in neighborhoods in parts of The Bronx and Queens.<\/p>\n<p>AOC shocked the political world two years ago when she toppled ex-congressman and Queens Democratic Party chairman Joe Crowley in the Democratic primary. She has become a leading voice on the political far left.<\/p>\n<p>Despite help from Wall Street, Caruso-Cabrera\u2019s fundraising pales in comparison to AOC\u2019s grassroots donation machine.<\/p>\n<p>Ocasio-Cortez has raised $10.5 million in campaign contributions to Caruso-Cabrera\u2019s $2 million.<\/p>\n<p>The first-time incumbent had $4.6 million in cash on hand to Caruso-Cabrera\u2019s $1 million, according to reports filed with the Federal Elections Commission.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not surprising that Republicans would finance the campaign of a lifelong Republican in a Democratic primary,\u201d said Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s spokeswoman, Lauren Hitt.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile we have pushed against corporate power with policies that favor everyday working Americans, those donors prefer to bankroll a candidate who answers to Wall Street over the needs of our constituents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Caruso-Cabrera\u2019s camp defended the Wall Street donations, saying that the finance money is coming because she\u2019s the pro-jobs candidate while Ocasio-Cortez opposed the aborted Amazon plan to open a headquarters along the Queens waterfront that the company said would have created 25,000 jobs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNew York businesses are supporting a Caruso-Cabrera because she want to create jobs for people. What\u2019s bad about that? Compare that with AOC, who chased 25,000 jobs out of New York,\u201d said Caruso-Cabrera spokesman Hank Sheinkopf.\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/06\/18\/michelle-caruso-cabrera-getting-major-funding-from-wall-street-giants\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>if you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">watch Movies<\/a> or Tv Shows go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/dizi.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a> <\/span> for forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#AOC rival Michelle Caruso-Cabrera gets massive donation from Wall Street giants&#8221; June 18, 2020 | 12:49pm Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez AP\/Kathy Willens Democratic U.S. congressional candidate Michelle Caruso-Cabrera AP\/Kathy Willens Michelle Caruso-Cabrera distributing masks at a food pantry.
