QUEENS, N.Y. — A well-known local brothel near two schools in Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s red-light district has been shut down by the NYPD after months of advocacy by local leaders who say the progressive lawmaker did nothing to help them close it.
Nicknamed the “bodega brothel” by locals, the establishment was operating on the second floor of a local bodega just off the Roosevelt Avenue strip in Queens, where prostitutes are known for openly soliciting sex on sidewalks, local Democratic district leader Hiram Monserrate told Fox News Digital.
Video from inside the brothel reveals five cramped, makeshift rooms divided by wooden panels and shower curtains, each just large enough to hold a bed.
The bodega is located across the street from two public schools, and students have been forced to walk past the sex workers outside the brothel on their way to and from class for months. An hour before Ocasio-Cortez’s town hall earlier this month, Fox News Digital observed children walking by with their parents as three women stood outside. more here
No help from AOC, a political whore, because of professional courtesy.
Why would you shut down your own business
While I will always condemn her hypocrisy, prostitution is a state/local crime and nobody from the US House has any authority, nor would we want the feds involved. The only question that anyone should be asking is who in NYC government or police was getting the kickbacks for ALLOWING this place to operate so openly. As a freedom lover however, I do not support the exchange of services for money involving consenting adults being treated as a crime in any way. Such a place and the problems it presents to the nearby schools and children would likely not exist were a free market present rather than a prohibitionist situation.
who cares? if she was up for reelection they would still vote for her. The idiots in her district are poor because of poor decision making skills.
…well, she’s a whore, so…
AOD is an idiot no doubt. However, this is a local issue. Nothing she could or should do on a national level. She should be rallying behind local LE to help rid her district of these parasites.
If you want a window into how DC works watch Charlie Wilson’s War. He is portrayed as a worthless piece of shit who does nothing and is manipulated by a wealthy constituent. Some things never change.
Sorry MrLiberty. You beat me to the punch
Who knew CNN once used this Bodega as a studio at one time…

A low level district judge just ordered that the brothel be re-opened.
Harry – from one kind of whorehouse to another.
Ahh diversity how it enriches us
MrLiberty – I get so confused between CNN and MSNBC… NBCABCCBSPBS.
I don’t watch any of them, don’t know who’s who because they’re all so nepotistic they all seem the same what with them all working off the same talking points! It’s like they’re all in one big room (with) different sets masturbating in sync with each other with Jeffrey Toobin as the marching band leader!
To be clear, most of the boys weren’t forced in any way to walk by the hoors on the way to and from school.
And at lunch.
Perhaps she’s just hedging her bets in case her reelection bid doesn’t go as planned.
Oldest form of capitalism and only form of capitalism AOC supports ..
^^^ If only we could pay her to leave! ^^^
Morons: keep voting for this teenager.
