Freshman congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is winning high marks from the left for her questioning this week of former Trump attorney Michael Cohen, which may have produced some leads into President Donald Trump’s financial dealings as a real estate and business mogul and given Democrats new reasons to demand his tax returns.
The praise she’s getting also may have caught the attention of Trump himself with the president firing off a tweet Friday bemoaning the pursuit of his financial records and encouraging his Republican loyalists on Capitol Hill to flip the tables and investigate Democrats.
