Their majority is already razor thin and his district is highly likely to go blue in the special election held after he resigns.

My personal suspicion is he's made a deal with whoever he's supporting for speaker to not support a vote to expel him so he'll probably remain in his seat until he loses next November.
He’s proven to be a trump-like greedy mother fucke.
Some Democrats PAC should offer him a “job” for a few hundred K per year if he resigns now.

I think resigning your office in exchange for money would also be considered a crime and I feel like he has enough of those on his plate right now.

Lol can they even do the vote without the speaker?

Membership issues might be one area that they can tackle without an actual speaker. They seat the incoming members prior to a speaker election (in a normal, Jan. 3rd situation).

That is a good point - if I'm not mistaken the most recent indictment has him scamming donors and if there's one thing you don't want to mess with it's the donor gravy train.
Seems to me there are at least two classes of donors, those who give to support their religion and those who give for a tax code that returns to them much more than they give. It would be the latter that one would not want to mess with. The former group only give because they have been systematically messed up and conned by the latter group of donors.

I like that point...

Let him be there and screw over republican donors...

the GOP leadership did not lift a finger to get him out of there..

“The voters are the power, the voters made the decision and he has the right to serve here. If there is something that rises to the occasion that he did something wrong then we’ll deal with that at that time,” McCarthy said.


Lets just keep the GOP shit show keep going..


Make it obvious that the GOP is unable to goverern themselves much less a country and have the Dems hammer it home

IQ of other side not found!

You may be able to reach the person who doesn't live politics everyday and decides which way to vote on the last day before the election but you're not winning their base.

It's a full blown MAGA dictatorship base now.

I find it rather interesting that there's a correlation between people who vote for the likes of Trump, Gaetz, Boebert and Greene and conservatives who go to church on Sundays while being hypocrites, racists, supremacists, misogynists, adulterers and crooks every other day of the week.

The one unforgivable sin: stealing from rich people.

Bunch of criminally wealthy assholes suddenly shocked that the scammer that scammed all of his friends and acquaintances, and that they endorsed to scam all of the voters in NY and the rest of the country, also scammed them!

What happened?

Anyone bitch slap him in the middle school cafeteria??

Something to do with Israel/Hamas. And (inevitably, this being Santos we're talking about*) a mysterious baby.




* I mean it can never be a normal political row, there always has to be a puzzling curveball in there somewhere with this guy.

Santo's shooting star into the House Conservative Caucus has turned out to be hot steaming turd stuck between Marge Green's butt cheeks. So sad. So righteously righteous.

From the NYT breaking news

"The House Ethics Committee on Thursday found “substantial evidence” that Representative George Santos had violated federal law, ending a nearly nine-month investigation and setting the stage for another likely push to expel the embattled first-term Republican from New York.

House investigators found evidence that Mr. Santos used campaign funds for personal purposes, defrauded donors, and filed false or incomplete campaign finance and financial disclosure reports, according to a 56-page report released on Thursday.

The committee voted unanimously to refer its findings to the Department of Justice, saying that Mr. Santos’s conduct “warrants public condemnation, is beneath the dignity of the office, and has brought severe discredit upon the House.”

Passing a clean CR, ending the Biden impeachment inquiry and (likely) expelling a fellow Republican. This new Speaker is off to the best start possible.

Very unlikely to be expelled, given recent Johnson interview basically refusing to consider expelling barring a court conviction (and possibly all appeals resolved...), given the narrow Republican house margin. And yes, the republican majority was an explicit explanation given for not considering expelling - apparently forgot to prepare his lies in advance.

With release of the report, he’s changed his mind. He won’t run again next year. And this gives the Repugnicans the opening to say it’s unnecessary to expel him
