She is partying with people who could be voluntarily paying additional cash to the Treasury if they wished to. Instead, they are having this party, and one of them *sponsored her attendance*.

Moreover, she's not stupid when it comes to publicity so she's obviously in on the joke. Which is to say she sold out to be a woke prop for billionaires in exchange for the social media engagement she craves.
