AOC has endorsed the labor theory of value, do you denounce?

She did not endorse the labor theory value of marx she said that laborer's are being paid less than the value they create which is much more nuanced argument.
Could you argue that it correlates to marx sure, but that's a far cry from endorsing socialism, as socialism and communism are state run means of production.
You could argue that forcing companies to pay overtime over 40 hours is socialism because the government is controlling the rate of payment deferred by employers. Isolating a statement in the microcosm and not the macrocosm is a clever way to fool stupid people but it often falls apart when logically scrutinized.
