  1. OMG, get rid of him. Then Biden for all of his lies and embellishment. Bring back honesty. If it ever existed

  2. I’ll take “Things Joe has done” for 200$. Daily Double!!!

  3. Gee, he sounds just like Shumer, Pelosi, Pocahontas Warren, Biden and all the rest of our stinking, lying politicians. So just what is the big deal here given that we're talking about the asswadcenter of the world…New York?

  4. yes politicians do lie. but if you are fabricating your entire life to gain political office it is for all intents and purposes committing fraud against the people. the people in Nassau should be up in ams over this…

  6. HE LOOKS DISGUSTING … LIKE A TOAD… SO EMBARASSING

  7. Santos rocks!…he's the conservative Elizabeth Warren the Indian! He should take a blood test to prove he has 1% Jewish blood or Ukranian blood…so funny.

  8. George Santos should not be Representing
    Nor Swear In Congress !
    McCarthy DESPERATELY NEEDS his VOTE
    McCarthy will be Speaker-ish of the
    House !

  9. George Santos. Elected to train the swamp.

  10. 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.

  11. Why don't they investigate bidens tax returns. This is bullshit.

  12. Another tRumpys student from Trump's University

  13. Santos is getting into politic to get rich……let's the corruptions begin.

  14. If you lie on your resume to attain a job and it's a top security job you can bet your ass will be escorted out under security.

  15. I understand if one or two things slipped through but his whole damn life is a lie. He shouldn’t be sworn in

  16. His glasses are for show, as well..

  17. There is a verse in the bible that says if you can be trusted with little things then you can be trusted with bigger things… It also says that someone would not lead in the church unless they can lead first in their own home… Taking these same wise principles, we should say that nobody should become a politician if they cannot be trusted with simply telling the truth or if they cannot wisely lead their own life first. That should put this candidate and many others into question for qualification.

  18. The only thing real about Santos is the $700,000 he loaned his campaign.

    According to George Santos he went from penniless to a multimillionaire in less than a year with a company founded on 5/11/2021 with its current headquarters in a two bedroom apartment in Merrit Island Florida.

  19. This guy is right up there with Obama and Schiff and Biden. The Republican are finally catching up

  20. Joe Biden, pretty much did the same thing. He said he was at the top of his class. He plagiarized. Not to mention the countless other lies he made up throughout his career.

  21. I made a mistake. I am sorry. Just give me 2 yrs in Congress that is all I need. PLEASE????

  22. And it’s called qualified immunity, which give it to government officials in the course of their duty. They are allowed to fly but again he’s never been sworn into office. He’s never won an election the way you’re saying it I can run up and down the sidewalk campaigning with the sign, covers me for everything I do if I break the law or lie

  23. Of course, is the promblem he’s not a politician he’s running for office when he’s lying to everybody and making the shop heavy with the incumbent he would be a politician at the time I mean, is there a rule because you’re running for office that makes you a politician I don’t think so. I think you have to win office first and I’m sure he signed a lot of papers that had penalty of perjury on it

  24. Lied, just like our president !

  25. He reminds me of The Liar from SNL…😂😂

  26. Like the Fake President BoBong Marcos of the Philippines..Fake Oxford and Wharton graduate scammers do have something in common.

  27. 😮Santos defrauded the voters Grifters follow the money 💰

  28. The guys lies almost as much as Adam Schiff or CNN

  29. They Lies are bad, but the illegal campaign money will send this scumbag and others to jail soon. I'm sure we will find out that the whole scam to get Santos elected was Shady AF. Have fun in Prison Santos and Friends.

  30. WHY IS IT NOT ILLEGAL TO LIE TO VOTERS? Let’s start there!

  31. If I were Santos, I simply would NOT cooperate. Unless the Feds prove there is a suspicion for an investigation to be opened this is simply political. My guess would be it was even initiated by the Repub Party of NY. As long as he covered his butt with his 2021 tax returns he can easily justify the thousands of dollars of income in 2022 when he files his 2022 taxes in 2023. Not that I like the guy for being such an obvious liar. But this investigation is clearly politically requested. He would be replaced by a Dem, if there is not special election declared once he is removed from office. Maybe MTG will come a runnin' and gotta-have-that-vote McCarthy too. Hawley can teach them how to run, if they are out of shape. What a mess.

  32. “Fabrications?! Yes. I owned a Fabrication company that made metal offices for construction site contractors.” Santos responded

  33. Democrats call for George Santos to resign over “whopping lies”

    Competent politicians do opposition research before a campaign, not after one. In a shocking feat of political malpractice, Santos's opponent didn't do enough oppo research to keep this clown from cakewalking into Congress. That Democrat is so incompetent that he ought never to run for office again.

  34. The amount of people's time that idiots like Santos waste is mind boggling.

  35. Santos will be fired if he got a job in any decent company after lying on his resume.

  36. Where is his professional and personal accountability? He is chronic liar and needs a professional help. I bet this is just a tip of Iceberg and their maybe more dirt come out in future.

  37. Santos chose the wrong party.
    If he went demonrat, this is all common practice and fake news media would cover for him like they do obiden crime family…

  38. I can't stand it when politicians lie for personal gain. I mean … Elizabeth Warren is Native American…. …right..?

  39. Help me out here, is it illegal and considered perjury to lie in the witness stand in court. But it’s not illegal to fabricate your whole life history while you’re running for public office. Can somebody explain this to me?

  40. What the hell is wrong with us as Americans that we allow this type of thing to happen. If you lie to get a regular job and you are found out, you get fired. But we allow this BS to happen and have a person like him in our gov. WTF is wrong with us.

  41. George Santos is just another scam artist & a mass cat-fisher in the land of everyday scams. The “total packaging” of yet another fake image. The rest of the world is saying “Ah Well”

  42. There are third world country have better political system then USA now

  43. A dog looks down and away when he is wrong but a snake looks in your face.
