Federal prosecutors have filed criminal charges against New York Rep. George Santos, the Republican lawmaker whose astonishing pattern of lies and fabrications stunned even hardened politicos, according to three sources familiar with the matter.

Santos is expected to appear as soon as Wednesday at federal court in New York’s eastern district, where the charges have been filed under seal.

The exact nature of the charges couldn’t immediately be learned but the FBI and the Justice Department public integrity prosecutors in New York and Washington have been examining allegations of false statements in Santos’ campaign finance filings and other claims.

What could the charges be? Where to start? Could be campaign finance, could be embezzling from fake businesses, or defrauding the elderly or check forgery or whatever else this fake person is supposed to have done.

I guess let's not speculate, even though it can be fun to, and wait and see what comes out when the charges are unsealed. Numerous colleagues of his, and thousands of his constituents have asked for his resignation, but have yet to see it. Will this be the last straw?

Can a man without morals be expected to ever do the moral thing?

Maybe trading secrets and influence for millions in cash from foreign countries like China, Ukraine, etc..?

Let's see if McCarthy adheres to House tradition and removes Santos from his committees while he's under investigation.

"Tradition" has been leaving America for awhile.

Men now competing in women's sports, is one of many many examples.

Too bad he doesn't have a D by his name. Law firms from around the country would be defending his nonsense. Nearly every Democrat voter would make him a hero against the system even though they are the system and love the system.

But he's not a Democrat. No Democrats have done what he's done. The fact that you guys can't actually denounce him and can instead only deflect shows that your claims of "draining the swamp" and getting corruption out of politics are hollow.

You guys don't actually want integrity in politics. You want to arrest all Left Wing politicians so you can create an autocracy.

You will notice that all us guys arent supporting him because we are probably honest people. Most of us "conservatives" usually are.

I heard a decent quote yesterday. A conservative gets angry when you lie to them. A leftist gets angry when you tell them the truth."

Pot / Kettle

Stones / glass houses

Pound / Sand

A liar in congress? Shut the Front Door!

I'm glad they caught him. Now they will have removed all the liars from our government. That was a close call.

The guy is a Shapeshifter!

I don't know what they're indicting him for, but it better be good, real good, or it's all just theater.

There is no integrity.

All those experts that swept sonny boy’s laptop under the rug before Joe’s resounding election victory proved that.

What there is though is a huge bias within the justice system.

Once again the Left bemoans the Right arresting Leftists in the midst of arresting those on the Right.

Projection is strong with the Left.

Dude, I do not know what planet you are on, but he is not well liked or supported by anyone on the right except the most cynical of right wingers who if they support him are only doing so do attempt to show people like you that they can support criminal behavior just as well as any Democrat can their own kind.

I am sure he will lose his office with full support of the RNC. You know it, I know it, everyone knows it. Quit playing these childish games.

Why hasn't he been censured? Why hasn't he been removed from his committees? Why hasn't he been expelled?

Because the GOP need him, integrity be damned. For example, without Santos the GOP no longer have the votes for their debt ceiling bill.

Breaking!

It has been determined that GEORGE SANTOS is INNOCENT, unless a legal authority finds him guilty.

He had been caught in lie after lie. Many of which were told to get elected. His own district wants him removed from office.

These are facts that exist outside of the judicial system. Once again, the GOP don't care about integrity as long as they have the votes they need.

Oh
That’s why the doj investigated him.
Yet hunter Biden is still walking free?

And you have the stones to type the word integrity?
What a farce

"THEY" are going to need a lot more than Trump grabbing puzzy, or Santos telling a lie, or an FBI plant running over people, or a 14 year old shooting two AR-15s simultaneously in a shopping mall...
