But for one Capitol Hill staffer, the solution came in the form of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The progressive New York lawmaker made headlines after assisting a stranded motorist near the U.S. Capitol on Sept. 11. The driver in distress? Evan Hollander, aide and driver for Rep. John Larson (D-Conn.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her chief of staff, Mike Casca, wasted no time turning the moment into a social media spectacle. He posted a photo of Ocasio-Cortez working under the hood of the car, captioning it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen your car battery expires on the Capitol plaza, instead of calling AAA you just need @AOC.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The post quickly went viral, racking up millions of views and sparking a flurry of reactions. While some users cheered Ocasio-Cortez for stepping up, others saw it as yet another orchestrated PR stunt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/?p=44233\">also read<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Note: we are republishing this story which originally made the news in September 2024.
