Where in the world does Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez live?

She may be America’s most famous freshman congresswoman, but in New York, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a virtual ghost. She has no district office and no local phone number, unlike the state’s three other freshman members. And it’s unclear whether the 29-year-old lawmaker, who represents the Bronx and Queens, actually still lives in the Parkchester neighborhood that has been so closely tied to her rise — even though she won her upset victory over fellow Democrat Rep. Joe Crowley with accusations that his home in Virginia made him too Washington-focused to serve his district. Ocasio-Cortez has used her deceased father’s Bronx condo on her voter registration since 2012, and even posed in the one-bedroom Bronx flat for celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz in a Vogue magazine profile after her stunning November election. But The Post could find little indication she continues to live there.

The Post e-mailed the Ocasio-Cortez’ spokesman, Corbin Trent, four times with specific questions — they were all ignored. On Saturday, The Post reached Corbin by phone. “We will not be commenting,” he said. Among the queries he refused to answer: Where does the congresswoman live? On Saturday night, a staffer promised a Post reporter that Ocasio-Cortez would talk to him after a speaking event in Corona. During the event, two staffers were seen reading an early edition of this story on their phones. “Come downstairs, I have to take a picture quick,” the congresswoman then told the reporter after the event, instructing him to wait for her. Twenty minutes later, she ducked out a back door, jumped into a chauffeured SUV, and zoomed off.

Ocasio-Cortez was in New York City last weekend and this weekend, with appearances in Queens on both Saturdays — yet she was not seen coming or going from her Parkchester pad either day. Her apartment’s next-door neighbor said she had never seen Ocasio-Cortez. Another neighbor, who has lived down the hall from the congresswoman’s apartment for the last 40 years, said he’d never seen her or her boyfriend, Riley Roberts, who has claimed the address as his own since last spring. “I would have remembered,” said the neighbor when shown a photograph of Ocasio-Cortez. Workers at Jerry’s Pizzeria, less than a block from her building, and at the local grocery store said she had never patronized their businesses — and a server at a nearby taqueria said the congresswoman had only come in to be filmed by news crews. A postal worker who delivers mail to the building said that in the last 10 years he has only seen Ocasio-Cortez intermittently, and that several months’ worth of mail regularly accumulates in the mailbox before anyone bothers to collect it. The worker said that Ocasio-Cortez and Roberts were the only ones getting mail at the address. “Just because their names are on the box doesn’t mean they live there,” he said.

And in 2017, when Ocasio-Cortez first filed paperwork to become a congressional candidate, she didn’t even know what district she lived in, mistakenly declaring plans to run for neighboring District 15 before correcting the error days later. Meanwhile, in Washington, Ocasio-Cortez has rented a pad in a luxe building in the chic Navy Yard neighborhood, where studios start at $1,840 a month, according to the Washington Examiner. Her new digs feature gold-plated amenities like a rooftop infinity pool, a cycling studio with a dozen pricey Pelotons, men’s and women’s saunas, and a golf simulation lounge — but no affordable units for low-income residents, in spite of a local law that requires them, the news site reported.

In the eight months since Ocasio-Cortez’s dramatic defeat of the long-serving Crowley in June’s Democratic primary — a victory that all but guaranteed a general election win in the heavily Democratic District 14 — the congresswoman has failed to open a local office. Ocasio-Cortez has made four trips to the city since she was inducted to Congress on Jan. 3, according to a Post review of published reports and social media. Those excursions featured five public events in her district — and three high-profile Manhattan appearances, including a Jan. 21 guest slot on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.” A district office “makes government immediately responsible and accountable to the citizens,” said Jadan Horyn of Reclaim New York, a government watchdog group. “Constituents need to know their representatives are working for them, and not for national prominence.”

Andrew McCabe breaks with Adam Schiff over whether precedent set in Clinton emails case

Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe disagreed with House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff on Sunday over whether the bureau set a precedent in turning over evidence in the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s unauthorized private email server. During the first interview on ABC’s “This Week,” Schiff argued the Justice Department must release special counsel Robert Mueller’s final report on the Russia investigation, no matter what the evidence shows, because it released materials in the Clinton case, despite prosecutors not bringing charges.

“I’m not sure that [former FBI Director James Comey’s] decision to announce it in July is a precedent,” McCabe told “This Week" host George Stephanopoulos afterwards. “However, I think that it is a very concerning and now recent precedent the volume of information that the FBI turned over to Congress in the wake of, after the investigation was concluded. That is something that concerned me greatly at that time, and I thought, you know, this is a practice that will be hard to step away from,” he said. Mueller, who reportedly is winding down his sprawling Russia investigation, is required under Justice Department guidelines to submit a confidential report to Attorney General William Barr upon completion of the inquiry. The report must explain why prosecutors decided or chose not to bring charges against any matters under investigation. Justice Department regulations do not require Mueller’s report to be shared with Congress or with the public, but the attorney general must file his own report to lawmakers and inform them whether the department prevented Mueller’s team from taking any action. Stephanopoulos said Justice Department officials are also not required to release any evidence relating to anyone not prosecuted in the case.

McCabe has been highly critical of the way his former boss, Comey, handled the Clinton emails investigation in his new book, The Threat, and the accompanying media tour. He wrote in his book that in “retrospect," "perhaps I would have said to Comey, ‘Don’t do it. Let’s be the normal [special counsel] Bob Mueller, say-nothing FBI of old.’” In a stunning public admission in July 2016, Comey announced his agency would not recommend criminal charges against anyone involved with Clinton's private email network, even after finding that Clinton's team was "extremely careless" in handling classified emails. Notes from the case were submitted to Congress later that summer. However, less than two weeks before the presidential election, in which Clinton was the Democratic nominee, Comey once again shook the political spectrum when he informed Congress the FBI was reopening its investigation into Clinton's email server. The FBI closed the inquiry again just days before the election took place. This controversial move has prompted Clinton and her allies to blame Comey, in part, for contributing to her 2016 defeat. Republican lawmakers have argued over the past couple years the DOJ has not turned over enough materials in the investigations, hindering their role in overseeing the department.
