George Santos Crosses the Red-Line

I know many sane republicans who do not support him.
McCarthy and the GOP caucus support Santos. That’s all you need to know.

Not surprised at phony both-siders here who hurt DEMs but say they’ll never vote for R’s.
 
By NYS law the only body that can remove him is the NY Supreme Court. If the NY GOP are so disgusted with him why haven't they taken to the Supreme Court. For that matter the NY Dems or the voters? Has anyone heard of any court action against him?
 
What the OP fails to realize is that in todays GOP this "red line" is the starting line for higher offices. First prove that you are a committed liar who can hold your positions in the face of damning evidence of your fraud.................
He allegedly stole money hastening the demise of a service animal owned by a veteran, he checks two boxes, if this is true…….stealing from service animals and veterans is the ‘starting point?’
 
This whole Santos affair shows the incredible incompetence of the American voter---------the GOP in particular.
Dems don’t get a pass here. This was a missed opportunity because they were smug, imo.

The NY state Supreme Court threw out the DEM remap, giving Santos a more friendly seat. Let Santos be another ‘Hastert’ GOP face.
 
The hate has to stop, or we all are doomed
You know what @sub1028 , I bow to you.
I know you are not Pro Trump, and yet you treat me civil on here.
Until people can let other people vote for whom they want without all the name calling and hate, we are doomed!

Those whacky Dems. They should have just ignored the judge, like the GOP basically did in Ohio.
 
Such a dishonest post. But so typically democrat.
Not dishonest at all and is the Truth. For all his lying McCarthy is doing Jack Shit about it. He is truly the face of the Republican party because it's LEADERSHIP is not even taking action.
 
I am not a Nostradamus, but it is obvious that Mr. Santos will eventually leave the House before the next election.

Not that the 434 other Members are angels, but they do have their limits.

Mr. Santos is truly unique.

Not unlike their party leader.

No, its a typically dishonest and stupid smear. Thats what you guys do.

Ok, you say it's a stupid smear and dishonest. Tell us what is McCarthy, you know the REPUBLICAN HOUSE MAJORITY LEADER is doing about Santos blatant lies and corruption then?
 
Stealing from a dieng canine rescue fund, this should be bi-partisan!

Ultimately, it’s up to the people of Santos’s district. Afterall, they voted him in. Even if they voted on one huge lie after another. I think the House ethics committee ought to take up the Santos case. McCarthy is way too interested in preserving his razor thin majority that to do what’s right. The house does have the power to expel any member with a 2/3rds vote. Article I, Section 5 of the U.S. Constitution. That vote needs to be held.

I dont know what McCarthy plans to do about it if anything. But his action or inaction does not somehow make Santos the 'face of the party' Thats just stupid

Not at all. Who does the party put forward onto committees? Which freshman congressmen?

The voters can only act in 2024.. There is no recall process in NYS. Maybe it's a good thing that he will be a constant reminder to all voters about the ethics of the GOP.

If the Republican LEADERSHIP isn't doing anything about it, they at the very least are CONDONING his actions. So yes, NO action from the Republican leadership means he is the face of the Republican party. Deal with it.

So what action has McCarthy taken besides seating Santos on two committees?

Not only doing Jack Shit, he's put a freshman congressman onto two committees. That's an expression of approval and confidence, right there. A fast-track to prominence.

No, it doesnt mean that at all. You simply repeating the stupid accusation doesnt somehow make it smart or right.
