    He's not an employee that can be fired. He's an elected lawmaker in the House of Representatives that can only be expelled by two-thirds votes in the House. But as an elected official, he is excluded from eligibility for unemployment benefits.

    I don't think so. There is still the upcoming court trial after his indictments. I wouldn't be surprised if he were to run for re-election while being incarcerated in prison either. That's exactly what the last House Representative, James Traficant, did in 2022 after his expulsion from the House.

    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 it was a mistake and was taken care of, no harm done. Didn't anyone tell him he could do that? Also hire an experienced accountant to guide him on future transactions, he obviously doesn't know how to handle money.

    This is a sad day because at the time of this writing, the vote hasn’t taken place so we don’t know the fate of George Santos. Here’s what we do know; 1. Character doesn’t matter. Oh I get he’s innocent until proven guilty but it’s not about that at all because his legal issues notwithstanding, we already know his campaign but was built on a web of lies and fabrications. That’s already been litigated. He’s not Jewish His grandparents are not Holocaust survivors He never worked at Goldman-Sachs His mother did not die in the towers on 9/11 He does not have any degrees at NYU or Baruch college and he certainly was not on any volleyball team He lied about founding an animal charity 2. He represents a number in the House majority George Santos is a made up character and with his party, it won’t matter because at the end of the day, he represents a number. He’s a GOP vote and Mike Johnson will ignore his character and baggage in the name of preserving his majority lead. I’ve been voting since 1980. I remember the days when character mattered. Things like honest y, integrity, dignity and behavior were not just expected from our elected officials, it was revered. Being held accountable was a thing. My party affiliation has remained neutral. Although I am more philosophically aligned with Democratic issues, I have actually voted equally GOP and Democrat and I even voted for Ross Perot. I look at the character of the candidate. Call me silly. And so in this day and age of politics, I find it sad that out our politicians don’t police their own - Whether it be a fellow congressperson or the president. I don’t understand where this spineless, lack of courage comes from. We the People? Sorry, that’s dead. It’s We the Party

It applies to everything from a child objecting to severe punishment for stealing a cookie when his sibling gets lesser or no punishment, to an Attorneys Generals who won't indict the son of a president on evidence for which he would or has indicted others. Whataboutism describes what is effectively obstruction of justice and vexacious prosecution both rolled into one act, or inaction, as the case may be.
