Congressman-elect George Santos – already under fire for his resume “embellishments” – is now the center of a federal investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s office around possible financial irregularities that may have benefited his campaign.

#NBCNews #GeorgeSantos #Congress
He’s a republican, what did y’all expect?
Repubs are all about the lies, they still claim made up religions in the 21 st century.
He must be a republican.
Lets do the Biden crime family next!
As is typical, the calculations of partisan politics will sadly & abhorrently win out over doing what’s right.
This walking lie and shallow husk of a human being should be denounced publicly and expelled from the House. Instead, the sitting GOP members will feign ignorance in public while decrying it in private; reinforcing their lack of spine and fealty to a political party rather than their oaths of office and greater service to the Nation.
It’s just one more on the litany of why so many of us don’t just despise one party, but rather despise partisan politics and both parties entirely.
Another con man turned congressional leader. This whole world is filled with lies.
No worse then Liz Warren AOC Nancy Pelosi the list goes on.They all lie then they should all resign
Pathological.
He’s “finding out”
Didnt Joe Biden do this exact same thing tho?
Everybody cheats except one Mr former president Trump
They should investigate every single member of Congress as well as all current and former presidents
I think Biden should be served the same fate as Santos. Both are liars
The Demacrates would never kick out one of thrir party for anything AOC lied about being a victim Jan 6 she is still their she lied about her apartment the list goes on with her pretended to get arrested. The other one is married to her brother to get him in the US also dated and paid one as an employee expensive dinners and flight’s to get lsid on tax dollars call out 1 call out all only fair.
Every single politician ought to be done the same way except they should all be licensed
Good break a leg
with all those cooking, lying and tap dancing like the clown … is it all worth it to serve prison time beside liking boys in the shower room
In 2024 like now, voter should throw the bums OUT. Enough with the cheaters, liar, criminals, and power seekers. We The People need better people in gov not babies, whiners, self proclaimed victims, take no responsibility and people that presume the laws don’t apply to them. Vote Republicans out!!!
Joe biden’s son? Anyone? No? Ok.
How about Biden where he qent to school graduate top of his class lies where he was brought up his kid the list of lies is long call out 1 to resign call out the rest borh partys .Cant call out 1of a party and allow the other party to get away with it. They lie all the time from false accusations during campaine when you lose and you thought the seat was yours you wait so you can do it after election.No one cared to call him out not thinking he would win so do it now. Cant have it both ways shift lied everyday on the news networks.Mitch McConnell lies kick them out too. No matter what party side your on you shouldnt want any of these liars liz warren ,maxsine waters Aoc the list is so long
This one got caught. How many more of them are in office😒
does he have a sister name Rhonda?
“Pathological lying is a sign of some mental health conditions…”
I do agree that he should resign but also be guided to seek help for his mental health issues. Not sure if it’s something his party or family members can help him with, but there are free services available.
He was obviously born with an enlarged money gland. He was handicapped from birth.
……all the best people…..
Ew. Can you imagine having to hit that nightly? 🤢🤢🤮
Republicans are now just as horrible as the democrats..BUT…its still only the democrats who get the free pass to lie and stay in office
George is another low life.
So your telling me that I’ll have to do in order to become a politician is to say I use to work at White House, previously job as an deputy, went to Harvard, and gave donations to the community and I can get his job by reinventing myself with a fake resume without any proof just trust words come out my mouth that maybe I can become the next president just like Donald trump did. Well that sucks
When someone has lied this much to get a political job we should be able with enough signatures to oust him without him resigning
He should be fine and jailed for his disgusting behavior. Leader who did not show his or her honesty in dignity should not hold the highest office of our nation. BAD EXAMPLE
I still can’t believe that no one spotted all these fabrications until after the election.
Confuscious say: Nail that stick out…get hammered.
Yes indeed. Awesome.
Another “Lying Republucan” from NY going to DC. He must have followed Trump’s playbook. If so, he should see how that turned out for COMRAD TRUMPSKI.
So many corruptions and deceptions in Republican party including
Republican appointed SCOTUS.
WHERE was the oppo research on this guy during the campaign??
It tells alot about a person who is willing to lie using his own mother, that is just so bad there is no word in exsistance to describe him. but this monster should not work in any political platform, in any public related platform. He is suited to work in any fast food restaurant washing dishes, without any public job helping the public at all.
Joe Biden said that his was the daughter of a coal miner that’s how Joe Biden ran for the senate race Joe Biden has plagiarized from speeches, essays, and policy positions throughout his entire life
As a student at Syracuse Law School in 1965, Biden plagiarized 5-pages from a law review journal “without quotation or attribution”
During his failed 1988 presidential campaign, Biden plagiarized from speeches by British politician Neil Kinnock, Robert Kennedy, and President John F. Kennedy
Now, Joe Biden and his 2020 Presidential campaign are at it again – lifting ideas, slogans, and writings to pass off as their own
Last year, Biden’s campaign used “word-for-word” language from other groups as part of his climate and education policy papers
The newly released recommendations from the “Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force” takes whole sections straight from Bernie Sanders’ campaign platform
Biden’s “Build Back Better” slogan is a phrase coined by Bill Clinton in 2006
A lying, homosexual politician. Not sure how it can get any worse.
Even if he lied, he did win. So cry more, but that’s a win fair and square. No different from any other politician saying something and doing the complete opposite.
Way to set an example, Santos. You come from a lying family? Your wife and kids lie too? To any republican allowing him to fill the seat in Congress, same questions apply.
He needs to be removed from Office! If he lies about pretty much everything on his resume. How can our country trust him when everything he says is a lie!? How can he lie about his poor mother? If Santos goes this far with his lying about the woman that loved him and raised him!Lord help what would he so next?
That just makes him the perfect republican. They’re all about lying and hypocrisy. Can’t get any kind of legislation out of them that’s for sure.
He needs to be removed from office and not allowed to serve!! Approving liar, should never be allowed in ever. Regardless of the political party. 🤦🏻♀️👎🏼🤷🏼♀️🥴🤬😳
Someone needs to verify Santos’ birth certificate!!
Santos’s problem is he chose the wrong party.
This is commonplace for the Demonrats.
If he switches parties Fake News Media and their clowns will cover for him like they do The Obiden Crime Family.,,k
He is the perfect example of a Republican!! Full of lies!! Check his birth certificate as well.
“I played the role of Eddie Haskell on Leave it to Beaver!” – George Santos
“My cat died in 911 attack.” – George Santos
republicans probably like him more now
Republicans wanted Herschel Walker to win. You think they care that this guy lied? For many it’s that they won not how they won that matters. Nothing is going to happen here. So let’s just take the L and move on from this story
If he lied to get in , what will he lie about now that he’s gotten the job . But moreover, where are the honest people who he knows from his past who will set the record straight ?
What else is new? Trump does it.
“MONKEY SEE, MONKEY DO”
How do you know when a Republican is lying? When their lips are moving!
Santos is sometimes wearing a makeshift white collar pretending to look like a clergyman.
😂😂
Santos fits right in with Republicans. You can’t believe a word they say.
Hahahahaha hahahahaha hahahahaha that’s what rethuglican party is about propaganda disgusting despicable douchbag hope 🤣 that he’s given 20yrs to life 🤣 another don the con in the making 😆
Remember God loves you♥️!
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Please repent, change your life around and live for Him🙏.
He is coming back soon🎊😊…….
Elizabeth Warren is native American.
Biden grew up in a Puerto Rican community.
Rachel dolezal is black.
But this guy needs to quit his job. What a bunch of hypocrites
Is he related to Hagen Markle ???
To be honest they all are shady boots
PREDICTION ! he is a runner and will disappear he will flee on a sailboat to Mexico and then make his way back to his safe house hideout in Brazil 🇧🇷 he can live like a king in the rainforest with the small fortune he accumulated tricking slow witted Republicans
He will RUN !!! at least put an ankle bracelet on him
Has De Santos got a Mother though? I mean, there’s millions of homeless Brazilians that can’t even pay their mortgages, and thousands of Brazilian babies that don’t even know that they are adults. And that, is the truth 🤔 😉.
If they investigate him they might as well investigate themselves cuz they’re all Crooks
Is this the resume guy? Wow…real life Pinocchio. 🙄🤔
He should blame it on Hunter Biden’s laptop. Republicans would totally buy it.
so your’re all Mad that he Lied BEFORE he got to be Sworn in ?
What a weirdo, lie, cheat and steal, then put yourself on center stage.
George not-so-Santos-Goldberg-Stein, that was not an apology. You don’t even seek to have balls for that. Get out of Jewish history. Invent your own suffering, you fake.
Dark money problem leads to unqualified candidates
Too bad he doesn’t have a “D” after his name.
We need Joe Biden to resign for lying like he breathes and we need to see everyone’s finances going forward
Once it dirty , it a Republican.
A Reina da Rua Augusta
*Communist* democrats are scared to death of Trump.
They know this 1/6 nonsense will end soon and
so will these witch hunts against Trump.
*DeSantis 2024*
But when a Democrat gets caught doing something crooked these people never say a word
@jose castillo just one of many that got by with a lot
Can’t count the number of millenials I have worked with who lied about their education and experience. The only thing surprising about this is that he wasn’t found out sooner.
Director only going to go out to Republican the IRS are only going to go after Republican
Here in Canada the SPCA has more background checks than this pathological liar had
Don’t have a problem with this but is Hunters laptop still Russian misinformation?
He lied even when his mother died. First, he wanted to be “famous” for his mother died on 9/11 but later he tweet that his mother actually died in 2016. No record that his mother was in towers at all, that she was near them on in NY at all. HE LIED ABOUT HIS MOTHER’S DEATH.!!! How sick do you have to be to capitalize, and fake that?
How dare Joe Biden go after his political rivals. Ok, I am kidding but there are magas thinking that I am sure
Joe Biden 💩 himself again today and Ukraine got shelled. Let’s keep talking about republicans. Didn’t some chick named warren say she was Native American to get into college?
Yes! They need to shred this guy. And the fact that the GOP is silent over these allegations shows how corrupt and base these Fers are
Is it even possible that someone could lied more than Trump?
Who actually voted for this fruitcake
Was his campaign headquarters really at the blue oyster bar?
The GOP as lowered their standards. They will protect him from the media. They need him to stay in power.
Perhaps he got it from your guy SBF, who also donated the lion share of his campaign donations to the democrats. George is just smart enough to lie about it but got caught. Not that O’l George received it from Sam. How about tracing the rest of SBF’s political contributions to see who benefited from it? Maybe offer Sam a lesser sentence to find out the others that are corrupt. 🤔
Зброя Америки вбила 3000 людей міста Маріуполь.
It’s all about you fool
Boy are the feds going to be busy if politicians lying is now a crime. They better start hiring.
This guy is right up there with Obama and Schiff and Biden. The Republican are finally catching up
All politicians lie. All of them. It’s part of their job.
Hey folks, lighten up – this is America. Republicans get to lie their way out of anything, don’t they?
LIER LIER LIER
YOUR PANTS ARE FIRE
I HAVE A STEEL BUTT
AIN’T TOO HOT FOR ME
SHUTUP
I support a strong 2 party (or more) system to bring forth all the best ideas inclusive of the interests of all Americans. I am not against the Republican party. Both parties bring (or at one time did) value to the table of debate. BUT WHAT is going on with this party and its citizen members? It is now clear that Trump had huge professional business losses and failures, and did everything possible to pay less taxes than the average American worker. It is clear by his own personal tax records that the image he fabricated of a great business tycoon possessing extraordinary intellect and skill is not just a little misleading, but does NOT even come REMOTELY close to the mark; TO REALITY. WHAT IS GOING ON with the good American Republicans who are so willing to bend over and prostrate themselves and behave like citizens trapped in an autocratic state who can not speak truth to power, who can not call out the lies, deception and deceit of their demagogue “leaders”? What is with the mind set of Republicans now willing to stand by, no matter what, representatives like Santos, Trump, Margorie Taylor Green, Graham, Cruz, Kari Lake say or do?!! What has become of this once long ago party of Regan and Lincoln that now honors, defends and supports all of these many many many non-reality pathological liars who seem to have this Lance Armstrong syndrome of using deceit and deception to win at all costs; why do Republican members now behave like blind, deaf, and dumb followers of autocratic rulers? EVEN AFTER the Republican party called for and funded 2 additional election audits in Arizona and Georgia for a total of 3 election audits per state, proving by REPUBLICAN organized, led and executed audits that the election was called accurately, STILL THEY LIVE IN NON-REALITY, why? It is like a virus. Even after all the top Republicans that Trump appointed to his administration testified against him in the January 6th hearings, NO Democrats but ALL TRUMP’S OWN TOP PEOPLE testifying against him, still!! the Republican citizens turn from the mountains of testimony presented under oath by THEIR OWN PARY REPRESENTATIVES. What has happened to these good Americans that are willingly allowing such dishonorable people to represent them? TO REFLECT WHO THEY ARE? Does this mean that the American citizens belonging to the Republican party are of the same moral, ethical, intellectual and integrity standards of their representatives? Does this mean that they are cut from the same cloth? It is NO WONDER that Barbra Bush said in an interview just before her death, she no longer identified or could consider herself to be a Republican. Really sad. What does one have if not truth? I am all for both parties, we need both parties, we need ALL voices at the table to form a more perfect Union, but what has happened to my fellow citizens?
There also needs to be an investigation on the candidates who received fraud money from crypto boy helping benefit their election. You all too biased to point that out?!
The criminal, fraudster and sociopath George Santos is not allowed to be sworn in on January 3. Instead, he should be tried for his crimes and should serve a very long prison sentence for it. George Santos, like all members of the GOP, is nothing but criminal, mendacious, disgusting and pathetic scum. The GOP is made up of the stupidest and biggest cowards who have ever populated our globe.
