  2. Does anyone know if he can loose his citizenship for so many lies???

  3. Republicans congratulations to have Pinocchio in your side😂😂😂. Keep your support to lier man. People from Long Island you put him in Congress you can take him out. What a S show.

  4. Santos is proud to Make America Great Again.

  5. Very shameful act!! Because they have power they believe can do anythig!!! Corrupcion!!!

  6. the judge may throw his dumb @s$ some leniency if he told the truth for once and admit guilt.

  7. Don't worry, Harry Potter will swoop in and save the day.😅😅😅

  8. Why hassle the man ? They are all grifting scum. Just look at aoc . 174k a year and she sells 60 dollar sweatshirts on the side. Pretty good huh?

  9. Definitely go after him. No tolerance. Then, use this level of interest and work at investigation and collecting evidence as the standard for everyone in DC. Then, we'll see alllllll kinds of Pelosis and Bidens and Clintons and others arrested.

  10. I would never vote for a Spanish name

  11. He LIES about EVERYTHING !! Of Course he pleading Not Guilty !

  12. Sounds remarkably like Biden, but obviously not as bad.

  13. a goofball if there ever was one

  14. santos and trump are psychopaths,emotionally unstable people

  15. He don’t deserve to be on those steps!! That’s the peoples house!

  16. Innocent until proven guilty

  17. He pleads not guilty because he claims he's not George Santos

  18. Even a fool has talents………and this man has the talents of misleading people. He has all the qualifications for a politician; every fool has talents.

  19. This is not a witch hunt. This is a reckoning for criminal behavior.

  20. I'm so happy they are going after this fool

  21. Oh noooo another witchunt!!! When will all of these lies stop?? Lmaosmh.. This is what our goverment has become… Geeze what a fall…

  22. such a timely witchhunt

  23. What a disgrace: Con in congress

  24. What do Bannon, Navarro, Miles Guo, Trump, and Santos share in common? They made themselves the enemy of the Chinese Communist Party (#CCP) by fighting for the people.

  25. As long as anyone stands up to prevent the CCP from continuing to infiltrate the United States, it will be prosecuted by the American judiciary. It sounds ironic, but it is true. The CCP is fooling the U.S. judiciary

  26. On Friday, May 5th, Congressman Santos publicly supported the New Federal State of China & Miles Guo. On Tuesday, May 9th, he was indicted by the #DOJ!
    He was prosecuted by the U.S. judiciary just because he prevented the CCP from continuing to infiltrate the U.S.

  27. Is the United States 🇺🇸 unable to tolerate people who tell the truth?
    #FreeMileGuo
    #FreeYvetteWang
    #NFSC

  28. Also charge Santos for that BEYONCE crap on the Congress Floor. foh

  30. You didn't expect that compulsive liar. To plead anything different. What a disgusting wretch!! 💩

  31. Judging by his figure, he probably spent those funds on food.

  32. His only been in Congress 5 months? He’s got nothing on the real establishment crooks who have been there over 30 years…
