George Santos expelled from Congress: a recap of some of his lies

The House voted on Friday to expel the Republican George Santos, of New York, after a critical ethics report on his conduct that accused him of converting campaign donations for his own use. Subscribe to Guardian News on KZread ► bit.ly/guardianwiressub
He was just the sixth member in the chamber's history to be ousted by colleagues. The expulsion push is the latest chapter in what has been a spectacular fall from grace for Santos, a first-term lawmaker initially celebrated as an up-and-comer after he flipped a district from Democrats last year and helped Republicans win control of the House. Here is a look back at some of his claims which proved untrue.

    Can you imagine the elation of working and succeeding to achieve the best con of your life? Thinking you had it made but you got caught being greedy and then everybody found out and exposed you. It is all downhill from here. You only have jail to look forward to but hey, at least you will have a roof over your head until you get out of prison. Then what? Homeless within two years of your release unless you can find a sugar daddy. No one will give you a job so you had better be thinking of your next con and maybe you can get fresh inspiration in prison. Until you get caught next time and the next time and so on for the rest of your life.
