Oh so banal.

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

Ok, but HAVE they been proven?

Have been: start here then stfu: https://www.washingtonpost.com/docu...9ae2-d4d74d1f7039.pdf?itid=lk_inline_manual_4



Representative Santos sought to fraudulently exploit every aspect of
his House candidacy for his own personal financial profit.
He blatantly stole from his campaign.

He deceived donors into providing what they thought were
contributions to his campaign but were in fact payments for his
personal benefit.

He reported fictitious loans to his political committees to induce
donors and party committees to make further contributions to his
campaign – and then diverted more campaign money to himself as
purported “repayments” of those fictitious loans.

He used his connections to high value donors and other political
campaigns to obtain additional funds for himself through fraudulent
or otherwise questionable business dealings.

And he sustained all of this through a constant series of lies to his
constituents, donors, and staff about his background and
experience.

Has anyone ever wondered how politicians come into office with very little ,
and they leave as millionaires?
Where's that monkey with a dart?

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

Agreed. But does Schiff have pending criminal indictments? Can't expel someone just because you don't like them.

Santos was not expelled because people didn't like him.

Wow..such rudeness. You could have just said “yes”…lol

 

[toobfreak]

My, my. George Santos becomes only the sixth member in history to be expelled from the House.

Just what did Santos do that was so bad? And were any of those six ever democrats?

 

[sartre play]

My, my. George Santos becomes only the sixth member in history to be expelled from the House. It would seem the latest crop of GOP lawmakers have been scraped from the bottom of the barrel, so hopefully this is some sign of reforms to come within the chamber.

Indicted Republican lawmaker George Santos expelled from US House

Indicted Republican George Santos' brief career in the U.S. House of Representatives came to an end on Friday, when fellow lawmakers voted to expel him over criminal corruption charges and accusations of misspending campaign money.

Thoughts?

Makes me pleased. means there is some hope that the decent (America first) Republicans want to hold the line, honesty
Over what ever it takes to win.

LIABILITY/ BackAgain need more? You grasp it yet?

Most of the Ethics Committee complaints refer to alleged misbehavior by Santos before becoming a Member.

The balance appear to be some dilatory behavior regarding responding to the Committee and regarding filing required Financial Disclosure documents (or amended and corrected FD documents).

The latter might qualify as actionable ethical lapses by Santos as a sitting member. Thus, it boils down to basically one valid claim. And I mean valid as a claim, not necessarily proved or established. But I’ll go further. I’ll suggest that maybe it is established.

Does anyone think Santos is alone in that?

Thank you for being such a proud apologist. This was not a partisan thing. So what was it in your opinion?

Representative Santos continues to flout his statutory financial disclosure obligations and
has failed to correct countless errors and omissions in his past FD Statements, despite being
repeatedly reminded by the ISC and the Committee of his requirement to do so.

The ISC also found that, despite his attempts to blame others for much of the misconduct,
Representative Santos was a knowing and active participant in the wrongdoing. Particularly
troubling was Representative Santos’ lack of candor during the investigation itself.

If you have no interest in the OP, get the fuck out.

How does expelling a member of congress benefit the American people? It is just more political theater.

Aww….

Wow, 55 pages just to say that the guy lied about stuff. Yet no one found any of this stuff when he ran for office, and the people elected him, nor did any of it affect his ability to do his job. If lying can get you kicked out of office, I can think of at least 50 democrats who should be kicked out right away starting with the flatulent bed-shitter in the WH.

 

[Blaster]

Why not just get rid of the two major poltical parties and start from scratch?

They’ll still be the same people.

Is there really such a thing as an honest politician?

 

[BackAgain]

Thank you for being such a proud apologist. This was not a partisan thing. So what was it in your opinion?

It was virtue signaling by the 100 Republicans and the usual bullshit absolutely “partisan thing” from the Dims.

As you already know.

BackAgain Democrat Rep: Republicans defending Trump "are getting dangerously close to criminal culpability" :CaughtAgain

“Lock her up” was a legitimate demand for an arrest based on criminal conduct." -- An arrest? Anything like an expulsion? What criminal conduct, if there was no warrant/filing/charges?

No alleged criminal conduct. You people only kid yourselves.

 

[Mr Natural]

They’ll still be the same people regardless of what they call themselves.
