#GeorgeSantos #Congress #Expulsion

Either way he’s only got a year left.
"Though the charges are damning, it's not likely Republicans will expel me because, get real girl, they're Trumpers. So I will continue to serve with honesty" – John Santos
He won't resign and the majority GOP House won't expel him.
The R next to his name is more valuable to him than the embarrassment he brings to the caucus.
The voters will fix this mess next year. Not just Santos, but the worst of them.
Their only worried about themselves.. Congress is full of greedy trash
The minute he resigned he is heading straight to jail that is why he is not resigning.
Can’t wait to say “Bye Felicia” on Friday. 🍿🍿🍿
Why don't you just straight up tell us how many votes he needs to get in order to stay? How many members are on record saying the will not vote to expel him? Please give aome solif facts and not airy possibilities unsupported by actual numbers?
When did " Jared" from Subway get elected to congress🤔
Get that lying clown out of there.
Prosecute Biden and Hunter first
Get this clown out already and into a prison issued uniform. He's been a fraud and a huckster his entire life. This is a literal embarrassment globally.
What I can't figure out is why Santos didn't pay back any questionable transactions and why that wasn't done before ethics probe. Just say is was a mistake and was taken care of, no harm done. Also hire an experienced accountant to guide him on future transactions. If I had received a payment I wasn't entitled to receive I would have paid it back.
How does Ms Santos get to bring her Plus 1 to sit in the well?
For lying? Same should be done to Biden!
"I personally have real reservations about doing this. I'm concerned about a precedent that may be set for that." A precedent of having accountability? Perish the thought!
Sure seems like it's taking a rediculously long time to remove someone who's been proven as a known liar and a criminal from one of highest levels of authority in our country. Sure makes you question all of those who seem set on keeping this fraud around as long as possible.
Should have been done long ago.
Long over due,
What the heck are they waiting for?
I hope he will be voted Out!!!
Nex time election will come, the voters may ask former elected officials attempting to return to congress " Did you vote to expel George Santons or against ". I think no one should worried either way, just be patient.
Why stop there, include MTG and M. Geatz
If a society's leaders are criminals the population sees no reasonable faith in the legitimate claim that being a criminal is wrong. And if the President should happen to be a man who tried to overthrow society, society shall surely fall.
The vote will be extended to next March
