Resolution to expel George Santos from Congress introduced by House Democrat
2023-02-10
[NYPOST] A resolution to expel lying Long Island Rep. George Santos from the House of Representatives was introduced Thursday following months of calls for his resignation after he admitted making up nearly everything on his resume during his successful 2022 campaign.

"There’s nothing that we know about him that we know is truthful. He’s lied literally about his entire background," said the resolution’s sponsor, Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), "This is an unprecedented moment, and the House should come together to expel him."

Santos, 34, admitted to The Post in December that he had lied about much of his purported background — from graduating Baruch College and working for financial giants like Citigroup and Goldman Sachs to claims that his grandparents escaped the Holocaust and his mother died in the 9/11 terror attacks.

I'd imagine Robert thought that was rather clever.

#7  Great... set the prescient (precedent?) that if you lied to get elected or re-elected, you can be removed from office.

Does that apply to Danang Dick Bluemthal? "I'm healthy enough" Fetterwetter? Al lthe others who we know lied but there are so many of them nobody can even remember them all?

#2  Ejecting a politician from Congress for lying? You are joking, yes?

#1  Santos is a scumbag and is a disgrace (GOP/RNC is a disgrace, too), but this Dem had better be careful looking at the bigger picture.
