GOP Rep.-elect under scrutiny for resume discrepancies

Incoming Republican Congressman George Santos may have misrepresented parts of his resume, a CNN review of his public statements confirms. The New York Times, citing public documents and court records, first reported that key parts of Santos’ biography were either contradicted or not supported by evidence. A CNN review of claims Santos has made about his education and employment history found the same discrepancies. #CNN #News

    1. @Just Pray exactly, just like I stated ALL politicians. Until all you what about ism idiots get over party worshiping nothing will change.

    2. @Steve Diamond Who? No, more like former Republican House member Steve Stockman. You know, he had to resign because of fraud. Donald Trump commuted his prison term (talking about corruption). Oh well, he will remain subject to a period of supervised release and an order requiring that he pay more than $1,000,000 in restitution.

    1. @DarthSailorMoon
      It has been confirmed the FBI got CNN to lie about Hunter’s LAPTOP FROM HELL.
      FBI e mails confirmed it
      CNN viewers are suckers once again
      CNN along with the FBI
      got you to believe the Russian Collusion was not a Hoax

    2. @DarthSailorMoon
      CNN did receive Tax Payers money from the FBI to shadow ban and
      cover up the Hunter Biden LAPTOP FROM HELL ..
      Everyone that posted a comment about it was BANNED..
      CNN by remaining silent on this issue shows they took the money

      CNN did receive Tax Payers money from the FBI to shadow ban and
      cover up the Hunter Biden LAPTOP FROM HELL .Elon Musk uncovered it at Twitter CNN are still doing it today….FBI e-mails not lie like CNN..
      Everyone that posted a comment about it was BANNED..
      CNN by remaining silent on this issue confirms they took the money
      FOLLOW THE MONEY it makes thieves of people like stealing elections

    1. @dark14life Every time RepubQtards cry “witch hunt” they learned it first from Orange Daddy Trump… 💫 🐥 💫

  1. He personally donated $700,000 to his campaign? How rich is this very young man? He must have a ton of dark money donors.

    1. @grandma k. Nah, he just gives daddy the money that he is laundering through China and Ukraine. 10% for the big guy

    2. @Ralph Marshall projecting much! It’s the democràts who can’t compete in the marketplace of ideas! That’s why they’re trying to keep Trump from running again. That’s why they had social media censoring conservative speech on their platforms! We’re seeing now how destructive democrat policies are so they have to engage in character assassination of their opponents. It’s democrats who want to destroy the constitution because it’s “racist”! It’s democrats who want to take away people’s guns! It’s democrats who want to take away people’s choices of healthcare! What they drive! What they eat! What temp they set their thermostat! It’s democrats who won’t defend the border (our sovereignty) Democrats are the party of Authoritarianism!

    3. We have nothing BUT ideas… One after the next… What people actually want… the gop hasn’t had an idea since reagan, and THAT was to strip money from you and give it to the rich… the rest of your weird rant is pure bullshit… I don’t know how you think to pass it off as an argument…

  2. He ran helping landlords rights, but he, previously, had been. EVICTED for non payment of rent. A real Repubic by the GOP standards

    1. @Stacey Cramer Nobody even knows what a liberal or a conservative is these days. They’re just useless labels in the game of “gotcha” 👉🔴

    2. @Austin 7thGen Texan people who pay attention know who/what they are! “Useless labels in the game of gotcha”?? Maybe for you but they’re accurate descriptors for me. As a former liberal turned conservative.

    3. @Stacey Cramer The “conservatives” today look like plain’ol Walmart white trash. They’re nothing like Barry Goldwater or William F. Buckley Jr.

    4. @Austin 7thGen Texan conservatives want to conserve the constitution! Conservatives want to conserve our country’s sovereignty! Conservatives want to conserve Traditional marriage! Conservatives want to conserve our freedoms and liberties! Conservatives want to respect the police and the difficult job they do! Conservatives want to conserve free market capitalism! Conservatives believe in “peace through strength” I’m a huge admirer of William F Buckley Jr. And Ronald Reagan. I’m also a big admirer of Milton Friedman and Ayn Rand. I’d rather “look like Walmart trash” and hold conservative values than be on the destructive side of liberalism any day

    5. @Stacey Cramer Please don’t preach to the choir (I live in Texas and hear it all the time). Yet no one can explain to me who the people were on January 6th at the Capitol insurrection. Nor why that “conservative” president egged them on to do it. Our constitution is in danger as long as those people are still wandering around. Please don’t say that they were antifa or BLM, because everyone knows that’s a big old naughty lie… 😼

  3. Several things about Santos: is that his real name?

    Is he even American

    Does he even live in the district he ran on

    He has criminal record so what’s his future

    And, Are we THAT dumb that we elected this dude without looking into his resume

    1. Questioning whether someone’s american and bringing up possible convictions from the past…i thought that was prejudiced and bigoted.

    2. @An Acc those are all questions that get asked at any job, you would know that if you have ever applied to one.

    1. This is the GOP we’re talking about, they have no standards. In fact, human garbage is exactly what they are looking for

    2. Could there be basic financial and background information collected when candidates register to run for public office so that background checks could be done and published for each candidate for office?

    3. I literally got fired when I was 16 at McDonald’s because I didn’t have proof I had previously worked at a restaurant.. which my family owned and just because my dad didn’t pick up the phone they said I was lying. 🤷🏽‍♂️

    4. Traditionally politicians have resigned over this sort of thing. I do not know if this will happen with him, though…

    1. @ThomasFromTN Listen Closely. Because all Hunters antics lead to The Big Guy. Hunter don’t mean 💩, but the Big Guy, now there’s a keeper. Man you lefties are 🤪.

  4. RECALL HIM NOW! Also Americans demand that anyone holding a seat needs to be drug tested four times a year randomly!

  5. I’ll be stunned if any Republicans give a crap about this. Their priorities are for their candidates to win and nothing else matters.

  6. He obviously defrauded his constituency.
    He should not be sworn in.
    I realize that lying is the new norm for the Republican party, but this takes the cake… 🥀

    1. I think Karl Rove started that game when he promoted W Bush for governor of Texas, then the presidency.
      “Say a lie over and over again – enough times – and the people will eventually believe it.” 😲

    2. With the exception of Stacey Abrams, I just don’t understand the complacency of the Democratic Party leaders.
      The fact that his opponent had a whiff that there were discrepancies in his bio and they ignored it when had he been a Democrat, the Republicans would have been all over it is not surprising to me.
      The most basic thing to do would be to check your opponent’s background, but again the Party failed to do that, even when they had reasons to.
      It was outside circumstances that prevented the red wave, not anything that the Democratic Party did. The party cannot just get fired up the last couple weeks of a campaign and be asleep the rest of the time. I am sad to say it, but I just do not have any confidence in the Democratic Party leaders. The party needs young, aggressive proactive leaders who leave no stone unturned.

  7. These politicians are getting away with way too much. There has to be some accountability. This is getting way out of hand!
