He did! That’s mentioned less often in the 2022 stuff but he was giving that out in 2020. Maybe someone called him on it? https://www.liherald.com/stories/suozzi-and-santos-vie-for-3rd-congressional-district,128238 |

He claimed to own a mansion in the Villahe of Oyster Bay Cove in Nassau County. He didn’t. He lives in a rented apartment with his husband who may not be a pharmacist who may or may not have been fired.
He claims to have sold his mansion in the “Hamptons” for $10 million because he didn’t use it. The problem: he didn’t own the property which was actually only worth $2 million. |

I love that this is a major fail by the press... in a thread linked with no paywall, because people no longer want to pay for this kind of work. |

And yet when he announced his candidacy for 2020 he referred to his (supposed) degree from Baruch but no mention of a MBA. Red flags all over the place. |

I’m OP and I subscribe, which is why I’m allowed to share non-paywalled links. This was worth it. |

| Cool. So how do we get this guy out of congress? |

Oh yeah, I'm sure the Republicans are real eager to make their majority even narrower than it already is. |

I doubt anything will happen until he’s convicted of a felony. Doesn’t seem like the resigning type. “Members of the House are, however, instructed by House Rules not to vote in committee or on the House floor once they have been convicted of a crime for which the punishment may be two or more years' imprisonment. Furthermore, under party rules, Members may lose their chairmanships of committees or ranking member status upon conviction of a felony. Conviction of certain crimes may subject—and has subjected in the past—Members of the House to internal legislative disciplinary proceedings, including resolutions of reprimand or censure, as well as expulsion from the House upon approval of two-thirds of the Members. Conviction of certain crimes relating to national security offenses would result in the Member's forfeiture of his or her entire federal pension annuity under the provisions of the so-called "Hiss Act" and, under more recent provisions of law, conviction of particular crimes by Members relating to public corruption will result in the loss of the Member's entire "creditable service" as a Member for purposes of calculating their federal retirement annuities if the conduct underlying the conviction related to one's official duties.” https://www.everycrsreport.com/reports/RL33229.html |

...and the horrible thing is the internet is killing newspapers. The Post will be laying off a significant number of employees next year. I do not know anyone who works for a newspaper or have every worked for one myself but our unwillingness to support journalism in this country supports the fascists who want to take over this country. The fact that we have lost so many quality local newspapers and conservative mega corps are buying out the rest doesn't bode well for the future of democracy in this country. |

The Post’s staff is huge. This isn’t budget cuts for them, it’s weird editorial decisions. |

Well, when you assign most of your staff to the confounding question of whether Elon is a reactionary MAGA archetype and why that’s bad for Biden according to Steve, a regular guy with a WWG1WGA tattoo having coffee in a Scranton diner … |
