  1. One less criminal in congress

  2. Lock George Santos up immediately PeriodT PeriodT PeriodT PeriodT

  3. I'm assuming that he will be promoted.

  4. The party of “Christian values” has someone that lies more than Satan himself, in the party. Many of them do.

  5. i can't believe that there were many stupid Americans as filipinos that people like Santos and the son of kleptocrat fake hero Marcos Sr becoming the president of the Philippines. 😂😂

  6. Santos 🤡 is a criminal
    Mc carthy 🤡 need santos vote.
    .🤡🤡

  7. HELL NO!!! TRUMP PEOPLE AND NEW YORK JEWS LOVE,SUPPORT, AND VOTED FOR George Santos !!! NOW THEY NEED TO BE SERVED ! SANTO /TRUMP 2024 !!!!

  8. This is sad 😥 so glad he turned himself in. Money illegally taken frim the people. Why would you re_elect? Yes thanks for stepping down. Many of us don't have money or jobs. The LORD is cleaning up congress.

  9. Republicans don’t care they’ll vote for criminals as long as they get their nazi agenda

  10. Why do I have a feeling that these are charges similar to what Trump will be facing between Georgia and the federal investigation.

  11. The is one line you never cross that’s taking rich people’s money unless they give you for something 😂😂😂

  12. Typical of the Republican party this man is a liar and they knew this man is a liar. You see if this was a black Democrat he would be charged and removed from Congress.

  13. judge "Is there anything the defendant would like to say before sentencing"
    George "My only regret is that I wasn't a democrat"

  14. The problem with the US is by having a 2-party system we are systematically mislead and politicians have become professional liars that play us all. There were some steps taken to help clean up dirty $ in politics, but the Supreme Court threw it out and so many politicians like this can take any kind of unreported donations now. Add to that people voting on party lines, religious or extreme views (platform issues like abortion), and logic doesn't apply. It will get worse before it gets better, since we effectively have two bad kids yelling and pointing at each other saying "you did it", "no you did it", "I'm rubber and you're glue – your insults bounce off and stick to you!". That's right – we've reached a level of complete incompetence. Only the very worst and inept like Santos are being caught.

  15. He is not only a Scammer but has Mental Health Issues. The Republicans asked him to step down but he would not. Therefore, McCarthy said let the Judicial System work.

  16. I am a Republican but I agree with getting him out of our Government. Now, go get BIDEN and his Family Members.

  17. But if you're a former president, you can get away with all of these charges.

  18. Kick him out of Congress now, and send him to prison for a long time, if he he is convicted.

  19. throw the books at chubby santos. he stole from poor & unemployed americans who really needed the money.

  20. Santos reminds me of a court jester. To

  21. A crook, no doubt. I suspect many politicians help themselves to personal use of campaign funds. Boebert being the latest under suspicion

  22. George Santos should be removed immediately. This is grounds for immediate removal.

  23. Being charged and in custody of two different things.
    As long as Congress is in session they cannot arrest this guy and put him in custody.

  24. He’s a phony and crook, Lock Him Up!

  25. George Santos has the perfect resume to be Donald Trump vice president, the Republican dream duo. Very Christian.

  26. Republican criminals are catching hell aren't they.😄👍 it's about time. They're gonna git cha

  27. George Santos proves Elise Stefanik is rotten..

  28. Maga Republican party is a party of lies, conspiracy, hate they just follow their leader Trump.

  29. Pervert like Trump cowards 🤣😡

  30. A former CIA official testified that then-Biden campaign senior adviser, now-Secretary of State Antony Blinken
    "played a role in the inception" of the public statement signed by current and past intelligence officials that claimed the Hunter Biden laptop was part of a Russian disinformation campaign.

  31. The sad thing, these cases arent hard to prove for the prosecution. Santos is delusional if he thinks he'll win this fight in court.

  32. George Anthony Devolder Santos Chachi DeGregario has gone too far this time! 😡
