The embattled congressman isnāt running for reelection after the panel found āsubstantial evidenceā of federal crimes
The House Ethics Committee has found āsubstantial evidence of potential violations of federal criminal lawā by indicted New York Congressman George Santos, and are referring the matter to the Justice Department. Santos announced that he will not be running for reelection in 2024 shortly after the committee released its report.
āIf there was a single ounce of ETHICS in the āEthics committeeā, they would have not released this biased report,ā he wrote, adding that he āwill ā¦ NOT be seeking re-election for a second term in 2024 as my family deserves better than to be under the gun from the press all the time.ā
ā¦
The ISC report found that in multiple instances, Santos moved funds donated to his campaign to his personal checking accounts, and used the money at luxury store HermĆØs, OnlyFans, Sephora, as well as for meals, parking, and to pay off his credit card bills. His FEC reports included payments for Botox, a luxury vacation in the Hamptons, taxis and hotel stays during his Las Vegas honeymoon, and spa treatments.
House Ethics Committee Chairman Michael Guest will introduce a resolution to expel George Santos from Congress tomorrow morning. So, the vote will probably be after Thanksgiving
Hate to a political hack here but Iām hoping he survives the vote.
Itās going to be way easier to defeat him in 2024 than a different Republicanā¦ Plus the Republicans should have done this as soon as they found out he was a shit stain not a year before the election.
Edit nm Nyt is reporting he wonāt run for reelection. Get him the fuck out of Congress.
He stated today he isnāt running in '24.
*Didnāt see your edit =)
