Santos could be a pedophile cannibal murderer with his crimes on tape and they'd vote no for expulsion.

They gotta protect their own after all, regardless of what they've done.

This is why they should have 0 power and authority.

No surprise. Republicans are criminal defending scum and so are the people who vote for them. None of them have any morals, standards, or values. I dare anyone to argue differently.

in legal court they would all be invalid due to conflict of interest. The system needs to change so that politicians dont judge or punishment themselves, they should be handled by the people they are accountable to, the people

I had someone tell me it was the NY Democrat's fault for not vetting Santos during his election.

They said this with a straight face

This was always gonna happen. But now the opponents of these Republicans will have this to throw in the face of these "law and order" clownfucks come election time. And for the people who are part of the GOP cult,
Santos is clearly black and white issue where he needs to go.

I'm more concerned with the 7 democrat present votes.

I mean the fact that none of his "achievements" came up at all during campaigning is very telling.

If he were a Democrat, his own party would have booted him within the first month. It's disgusting how awful Republicans as a whole are now. Even 20 years ago, they would have done something.

I believe they were, just not to the extent we know of now, but the media didn't really give a shit.

Starks would know more since he's in his district and has interacted with his hilarious bodyguard/campaign manager/whatever guy. lol

In 2020, nobody took him seriously. Just some weird guy you came out of nowhere to be a sacrificial lamb against the incumbent Dem.

Just weird, not a red flag yet.

Fast forward to 2022, he's now a January 6th apologist and spoke at a rally of the day before wearing a stolen Burberry scarf and using an exaggerated New York accent. And he suddenly has a ton of money that is unaccounted for.

Even at this point, he's just a MAGA chud. Disqualifying in my mind but not anything that would amount to the lies we now understand.

News outlets only had bits and pieces that they're able to cobble together, but nobody really could account for his background and create a full story.

But at this point, everyone is "who the hell is this guy" and he begins failing basic smells tests. The red flags begin but nobody has the full picture.

And yes, I have the operations/bodyguard's cell number. Not sure why he willingly gave that to me.

Shocked. Everything Republicans claim they stand for is a lie. They don't care about crime, they don't care about accountability, at least not when its one of their own.

Our system is so fucked. Republicans are getting more and more corrupt and grabbing for more and more power. It's only going to get worse. I legit don't see a way out of this with the current system. Something drastic has to happen for this to change

It's the greatest defensive method ever created. How liberating it must be to never have to feel shame for all the evil lies and embarrassing things you say or do. It makes them sub-human animals as shame is one of the things that separates us from mad beasts. When you remove it, you remove your humanity.

It's why they can't be reasoned with, they can't be appeased and there is no chance for anything bipartisan. It makes them akin to the kids that torture animals because he lacks the humanity to care about what he is doing.

Shame is not an option when you're surrounded by hardcore believers in chaos and chuddery. People like former staffers for Bannon and ultra-religious members of Congress.

That's the problem. They're not. The extent of accountability is "well, you can vote for someone else next time the system asks you." Meanwhile they can take back any promise they made to win their office without any repercussion.

It's pretty sweet that politicians can vote to protect each other like that.

Imagine if at my grocery store job, my boss wanted to fire me, but all my coworkers got to vote "no" and I keep my job.

Oh shit, I think I just invented socialism.
