  1. Life supply of KY jelly for all the good little trumpettes. Since Trump is in holes at both ends constantly I'm surprised any of them can walk or talk. They should all have to take it dry.

  2. And they call it an 'Ethics committee'? Let's see how that name holds up… And as far as Santos and McCarthy are concerned, they are both despicable.

  3. BIDEN HAS TAKEN MONEY FROM CHINA 🤡WHY IS THAT NOT REPORTED ON NBC❓❓❓PROPAGANDA 🤡🤡🤡

  4. The Republicans reaction is far more telling than Santos’s predicament.

  5. This is BS and he doesn’t care about them using him. Somebody in the house is paying him to do this nonsense. Looks like he’s been shopping again with his new jacket

  6. "Republican lies, slander, self-righteousness and conspiracy theories are not patriotic. Patriotism involves love and support for one's country and its values, which includes honesty, integrity, and respect for the truth. While it is important to have different perspectives and opinions, spreading false information or intentionally deceiving others can be damaging to democratic institutions and the principles upon which they are based. Patriotism involves promoting the common good and working towards a better society, not engaging in harmful and divisive behaviors."

  7. Ethics Committee? I thought the Feds had Santos?
    Santos doesn't belong in front of a Ethics Committee he belongs in Criminal Court!

  8. Democrats want to rush it without giving the man due process. In this Constitutional Republic we have due process. He's going to get the boot no doubt, republicans are ensuring Santos can't challenge it in court. You're welcome

  9. It seems like a typical republican. Why would republicans expel one of their own

  10. I heard it was false allegation with no proof. But I guess we will see.😊👍

  11. Number of courageous Republicans in Congress: ZERO.

  12. But where does he get those clothes? He's always looking sharp, you guys are just haters…

  13. What did he do? Say he is Native American or a Viet Nam vet or something?

  14. This issue now with Santos is not the issue with Santos. If the congress does not agree that he's a criminal blight on the integrity of office yet again. They are the issue that no integrity has existed for a long time. It is living proof that the Chinese one party system will be the successor of the westerners of democracy if we're incapable of dealing with internal issues.

  15. House will flip once again. Rep. Santos will be a "1 hit" wonder.

  16. Republicans would send the country up the river with LIES & THIEVES before losing their control in Congress – PURE EVIL

  17. Ridiculous that republicans are standing behind this criminal…get him out of congress.

  18. How predictable. What are the odds the Ethics committee will actually remove him? This new reality is really starting to grate on my nerves.

  19. DISGUSTING that a criminal is making Americas Laws! Embarrassing

  20. It’s sad we have these clowns running the country

  21. He’s not going anywhere but jail.

  22. They must be desperate to keep someone like that in their rank!

  23. Gross old poultry party.

  24. I remember when Bill Clinton lied under oath and the democrats didn’t remove him from office!! Ah the hypocrisy is real

  25. So republicans are now pro-corruption. Why am I not surprised

  26. Santos survived the Democrats but the Republican party won't survive the American people. 😅😂😂

  27. We see the republican party do not care for the people who voted them in.😮

  28. This strategy by McCarthy is crooked. If you can only win with Santos on your side, you shouldn’t win.

  29. So when are you journalist gonna ask Kevin. Keeping a fraudulent congressman is more important than the Constitution????

  30. McCarthy should only agree to give up Santos if Adam Schiff also goes because Schiff is the biggest liar in Congress.

  31. They need to vote mccarthy out…send him packing for good….they can send him out ….complain and write to get the message out clear and straight forward…mccarthy has to go…now…

  32. House republicans’ desperate cling to power…

  33. Not surprising. Santos make be a crook but he wears the same jersey as the Speaker. He is the one vote guaranteed for whatever the Speaker wants passed (Or Not). And the "Ethics" committee is a bit of a misnomer.

  34. It's a DISGRACE to call him a "representative".. this scum needs to go!!!

  35. Seriously, if the doj is going after Santos, then they need to go after every single democrat..

  36. He should be a republican o he is?
