George Santos is expelled from the House of Representatives in a bipartisan vote because of alleged mendacity.

“He blatantly stole from his campaign to enrich himself, spending thousands of dollars on Botox, OnlyFans, and Hermes, among other things. There’s serious work to be done in Congress, and Rep. Santos’ behavior has no place here,” Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) posted immediately after the vote.
Maybe this is the real reason the House decided so quickly to not tolerate Santos.
Congress routinely steals billions, and even trillions, from us Americans,
and they're treated like that's just normal business.
But steal a few hundred thousand from campaign donors,
and it's lynching time!
Maybe the Congress critters are just showing us whose money they REALLY care about!
If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion,
mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.

The Pubbies will regret doing this.

Or... then again... maybe they won't. Perhaps they really WANT to be "just the minority" in the House once again...

Dan Crenshaw spent over $2 million dollars on “events” and event related services, like event make-up and jet rentals, in the 2022 cycle.

He spent over $500,000 on travel. Including $47,000 on black car rentals.

Crenshaw spent $200,000 on promotional eyepatches and glassware.

He billed his campaign $36,000 for “petty cash”

He spent $166,000 on hotels, most of them luxury hotels, in vacation destinations like Jackson Hole, Wyoming and Coronado Beach, California.

All in all, Crenshaw spent over $14 million from his primary campaign fund to win reelection in his R+18 district. His Democrat opponent spent less than $200,000.

None of the numbers below include the expenses he billed for in his Joint Fundraising Committee (another $1.8 million) or his Leadership PAC ($75,000).

And I’m supposed to care about George Santos? At least George Santos did something impressive with his campaign funds: unseat a 3 term Dem incumbent in a D+2 district.

Some would say this is “whataboutism” but it is grossly unfair he’s being expelled while the above get to stay were they are

Santos needs to identify as a trans lesbian Muslim if he wanted to avoid expulsion
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

It's one set of rules for the Uniparty ---- of which the GOP is part.
How dare we expect people to be who they say they are?

How dare we!

It's an outrage! We must protect abject liars and identity thieves at all costs, so long as they're "Republicans" from downstate New York.

It should have been up to the voters to decide his fate.  He was out next year anyway. This sets a bad precedent.  And I guarantee the next time someone is expelled they won’t be as slimy as Santos.

@dfwgator

Unless things change,it won't  be long for America will become a One Party Leftist Nation,just like every other police state.

Being charged with  being guilty of promoting American  Patriotism will soon become a federal crime.

@Right_in_Virginia

The left doesn't care about petty crimes,or even felony  crimes. What they care about is obtaining total control.

As Lenin is reported to have said after allowing citizens  to vote and receiving criticism about it,"It doesn't matter WHO votes. What matters is who  COUNTS the votes."

And that's why as mad as I get about it, in the end they are there because they got a majority of people to vote for them.

Apparently more pain is needed.

 George Santos in ‘productive’ plea deal talks with the feds, wants to go back to Congress
By Social Links for Reuven Fenton ,

Published Dec. 12, 2023, 12:44 p.m. ET

George Santos’ lawyers are having “productive” conversations with the feds over a possible plea deal in his fraud case, they told a judge Tuesday — as the ousted lyin’ Long Island lawmaker said he wants to return to Congress.

The New York Republican was in Central Islip federal court for a hearing in his embezzlement and identity fraud case, sporting his usual suit and sweater uniform paired with black $1,000 Salvatore Ferragamo sneakers, which he told reporters he was wearing “because I hurt my foot.”

But before the court appearance, Santos, 35, told WABC radio’s Frank Morano: “I’m not done with public service. I want to go back to Congress.”

“I’m not saying today. I’m not saying tomorrow,” Santos said on radio show “The Other Side of Midnight” early Tuesday. “I have a lot of things I need to take care of first. I think we all know, but I do have hopes of trying to regain the trust of the American people and going there because I will continue to expose and root out the rot in our federal government.”

In court, Santos’ lawyer Joseph Murray told Judge Joanna Seybert that the Sept. 9, 2024 trial date shouldn’t be moved up, like the feds are pushing for, because the defense team has been struggling to go through the over 1.3 million pages of evidence turned over by prosecutors.

I know next to nothing about this man or his political career,but it  seems to ME that ANYBODY   that spends a thousand bucks for a freaking pair of sneakers lacks the good judgement to be a school crossing guard,never mind being a Congresscritter.
