It wasn’t long after Twitter suspended an Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez parody account when another one caught attention on the social media platform.
The @AOCoffice account touts itself as a “Parody for Da Boss of NY-14 (Bronx + Queens),” taking on the real New York Democratic socialist in posts that mock her remarks, policy ideas and views.
Following the suspension of the popular parody account which had more than 85,000 followers, the “Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Office” account tweeted appreciation to Twitter co-founder and CEO, Jack Dorsey.
Thanks for deleting that awful parody account of me @jack! It means so much that you won’t let people make fun of me!

President Donald Trump’s son called out Twitter for suspending the account.
Why did @Twitter suspend a parody account that was is full compliance with their rules?
Could it possibly be because the account was mocking the lefts new icon AOC?
What’s the deal here @jack? Because it sure looks like political bias. https://t.co/t8ScEcLEx1

The @AOCoffice account has a companion website which is also a parody account, featuring mock articles and information about the freshman congresswoman.
The Twitter account addressed those calling it out as a parody and mocked several of Ocasio-Cortez’s recent tweets.
For those asking if this is a parody account, you can just step right off. If I was a white male nobody would be asking. It’s racist, full stop. Knock it off.

The account made fun of the New York congresswoman for her recent discovery of a garbage disposal.
You guys!! First the garbage disposal + now these giant light switches! Should I take one off to see what’s inside? pic.twitter.com/8RkPsFYCok

On Instagram earlier this week, Ocasio-Cortez had declared there was a “monster” living in her sink, explaining that she had no idea what a garbage disposal is.
Seriously, how is @AOC qualified to be in Congress she can’t figure out what a garbage disposal is? @realDailyWire @benshapiro @michaeljknowles pic.twitter.com/8ImIhUeUr6

Last week, the lawmaker opined the loss of a tomato in her community garden but was “shook” over the growth of the rest of the plants.
“I am SHOOK, like honestly, gardening, FOOD– that comes out of dirt… it’s Like magic ” ~ @AOC
I wish the congresswoman cared about border security, growing the economy and other policies that will lift up the entire country as much as she cares about this garden .. ⬇️ pic.twitter.com/MKOULq5EKN

The AOC parody account chimed in on the gardening adventure.

The parody also tweeted a quote from Ocasio-Cortez on abortions as well as a reference to Rep. Rashida Tlaib and her map showing a sticky note with “Palestine.”
“6 weeks pregnant” = 2 weeks late on your period.

Just FYI, @RashidaTlaib is right, Palestinians are, ‘our’ people. pic.twitter.com/3yyH8X6Dxv

While Twitter has not yet banned the @AOCoffice account, which has about 29,000 followers, many of the images were marked as “sensitive material.”
