In theory, if they do another vote to oust him, all democrats should vote to expel him as their reasoning to not do so last time was to wait for the ethics committee report.

George Santos is Donald Trump if Trump wasnt born with enormous wealth and all the connections needed to get out of trouble.

This isnt true. There was opposition research that uncovered information, but the media wouldnt report on it.
I'm curious to see a source on that. Not that I don't believe you, I'd just be curious to see what the justification was.

"George Santos" is a fraud. We didn't need this months long investigation to tell us that.

Can we expel him now?

I remember a discussion about it on Politics board. It was the story about how he defrauded a charity and stole donations that were meant to help a dying dog that belonged to a veteran.


Yeah, Starks is very familiar with him and all that jazz.

Yep, he's my problem. With respect to that story, Santos was in contact with a veteran and his friend to set up a crowdfunding campaign to get the dog's surgery. Santos pocketed the money while claiming the crowd funding wasn't just for that dog. Dog ends up dying and the veteran is still heartbroken.

This does not absolve him of the myriad of crimes he's committed. He belongs in prison, not the private sector.

Oh hes absolutely going to prison. His GOP protections only extend to his time in Congress, and maybe not even then at this point.

Problem is lies like "I played college volleyball" are so benign that most wouldn't even care to fact check it, it's just a fun fact on a bio sheet essentially. The validity of statements like that is only really questioned when bigger lies get exposed, like what happened with Santos.

Will this be the sequel for the book/movie of "I love you Phillip Morris". The story about a gay con artist, impostor. Actually a pretty damn good movie. Played by Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor as the love interest.

I do wonder if Santos will make good on his promise of taking some colleagues down.
