Yep, he's going to get charged with violating campaign finance laws by making fraudulent disclosures. I really can't believe McCarthy isn't getting ahead of this. Kicking Swalwell and Schiff off Intel while handing committee assignments to this obvious fraudster and criminal is a really bad look.

Not to the people McCarthy has to answer to.

He's safe in his own district, but if he wants to remain as speaker he's got to think about how this plays in the swing districts that gave the GOP its very narrow majority. And how it's going to play in Santos's district when he eventually gets charged and then there's a special election.

I don't at all think he is safe in his own district. Nassau County Republican Party is calling for him to step down. https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/11/politics/george-santos-nassau-county-resign/index.html

Republican pollution is pretty deeply entrenched.

Latest Rasmussen poll actually shows drug-crazed conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell as the leader for new RNC Chair.

Please. That reference is to McCarthy. Santos is done and gone.

Suddenly something weird is going on with the Republicans - now they are flipping against their drag-hating colleagues.

I read there is a suspicion his campaign forged the signature of its purported treasurer.

Schrödinger’s treasurer.

Bye George. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. Go adopt a new name and go con some other district. NY district 3 detests you.

Absolutely.

Emboldened by the lack of action on all the compromised Republicans, I guess the Russians decided they could just go all out to get their boy elected this time.

Good. The FEC seems to have been ineffectual for years.
