AOC Directed to Pay Over $2K for Breaking House Rules at Met Gala
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has been directed by the House Ethics Committee to pay over $2,000 for violating House rules regarding gifts and apparel related to her attendance at the 2021 Met Gala. The committee found she underpaid for several items, totaling $2,733 owed to vendors and a $250 donation for her fiancée's ticket.

The committee concluded that while Ocasio-Cortez's violations were not deemed willful, her actions were inconsistent with House standards. She paid approximately $990.76 for items valued at around $3,724.04. Ocasio-Cortez's chief of staff stated she accepts the ruling and will address the payments.

Breitbart: Breitbart Business Digest: The Fed’s Make-It-Up-as-You-Go Tariff Inflation Theory
Breitbart Business Digest: The Fed’s Make-It-Up-as-You-Go Tariff Inflation Theory
The Federal Reserve continues to assert that tariffs on imported goods should trigger inflation, despite evidence to the contrary. Recent minutes reveal that Fed officials attribute the lack of expected inflation to firms using older, cheaper inventory before raising prices, a theory that lacks support from established economic principles.

Critics argue that prices are determined by consumer demand rather than past costs, suggesting that the Fed's narrative may be an attempt to justify disappointing inflation data. The Fed's insistence on the inflationary nature of tariffs may overlook other factors like demand softness and competitive pressures, indicating a need for a reassessment of their economic models.

Breitbart: NFL Punishes 100 Players, Coaches, and Employees for Selling Super Bowl Tickets Above Face Value
NFL Punishes 100 Players, Coaches, and Employees for Selling Super Bowl Tickets Above Face Value
The NFL has imposed penalties on 100 players, coaches, and employees involved in a Super Bowl ticket scandal, accusing them of selling tickets above face value, which violates league rules. Fines for players are one and a half times the ticket value, while team employees face double penalties.

The league's investigation is ongoing, and officials have yet to release a comprehensive report. The NFL's policy prohibits employees from selling tickets acquired from their employer for more than the face value or original purchase price. Future fines may be increased for illegal ticket sales.
