    1. @Jay Best create a website that has each candidate and elected official accolades and accomplishments. The GOP knew that his resume didn’t add up last summer, before elections.

    2. @kelperdude * For What? Be specific or shut up fool. Neither impeached by Congress twice, nor under indictment for 10 alleged federal felonies, prosecuted for a fake University, stole classified documents from the WH, convicted of income tax fraud, 10 failed businesses, 5 times bankruptcy, incited a treasonous traitor riot on January 6. trumpy the loser, squandered 400 hundred million dollars his pappy left him, then had to borrow money from a Russian bank, no U.S
      bank would approve his loan. And he Bragg’s he is the greatest business man. He is just a crook and needs to be in jail.

    3. A state and federal law should be put to a vote by taxpayers nationwide penalizing and stripping politicians/civil servants of taxpayer salaries also known as politicians when they lie.

    1. 🤣🤣🤣🤣…Coming right up…🤣🤣🤣🤣…it’s your turn sweetie,
      Investigations and elimination of democrats only for the next 2 years!!!!

  1. While he is in prison he will tell everyone that he is the warden and he is only starring in a reality tv show.

  2. Things I find strange:

    A) The house actually has an ethics code
    2: McCarthy gets to be in charge of a thing labelled “ethics”
    iii – Randomising your bullet points like I’m Traitor Trash Greene who somehow still gets to keep her job.

    1. @ImpactedSt00l he can’t be impeached for the same reason Trump couldn’t be impeached; need 60 votes in the Senate. Actually Trump was impeached twice, he just wasn’t convicted. The second time he came within 4 votes of getting thrown out, though.

      Biden won’t even be impeached because there aren’t enough GOP votes in the House to even get that far. Reason being that at least a few RINOs understand that he’s doing a good job. And don’t even bother sending me a reply about Hunter’s laptop, Chinagate, the stupid balloon, Dems drinking baby blood or any other psycho conspiracy garbage. I don’t care. I’m fed up with that nonsense. But thanks for listening.

  3. Keep it up. Keep pushing this. Keep pushing so loud and so hard that you push him the hell out! Don’t give up, don’t give in. Get him out, then get rid of the next GOP louse. Take out all the trash!

    1. In Ugledar,, when Polish mercenaries tried to kill the retreating Ukrainian soldiers, the Ukrainians returned fire and shot the Polish mercenaries! Polish mercenaries are shooting Ukrainians,, so that Ukrainians would not retreat! The Poles are a barrage squad, like in prison!!

    2. @Jerry McClure agree! – drain the swamp! Your list is too small & too red – why not add all the elected corrupt liars and cheaters that have become multi- millionaires, just because they could get elected?

  4. I am surprised that McCarthy didn’t put Santos in charge of the ethics committee. He already put MTG the insurrectionist on the homeland security committee…

    1. I like to see these comments from self-righteous Democrats talking about fraud and corruption when most of the fraud and corruption in this country is perpetrated by Democrats.
      In the last year over a dozen Democrats have been prosecuted for election fraud.
      I live in a completely democrat-run City and we’ve prosecuted at least 40 government officials for bribery.
      For the historically ignorant Google ABSCAM.
      Far more Democrats are indicted for fraud and bribery than Republicans.

    2. In Ugledar, when Polish mercenaries tried to kill the retreating Ukrainian soldiers, the Ukrainians returned fire and shot the Polish mercenaries! Polish mercenaries are shooting Ukrainians,, so that Ukrainians would not retreat! The Poles are a barrage squad, like in prison!!!”!

    3. I think putting her on the Homeland Security Committee is a slap in every loyal American’s face.. Just thinking about all she said about January 6th, that if she ran the insurrection they would have won and she would have all of them armed… Scary that she is a United States of America Congress person!!!

  5. It’s very telling at how long it takes justice to reach Santos once he’s in the “club.” The other lizards may not like him for being excessively corrupt, but he’s in good company, make no mistake.

    1. Gym Jordan is on the top of my list for investigations and it doesn’t involve anything to do with Congress.

    2. Biden’s outright lies:

      Almost thrown out of law school for cheating.
      Said he graduated in the top half of his class when in fact he graduated near the bottom
      Said he had three degrees when he has only one

      Used to attend a black church every Sunday after Mass. Not true.

      Had to withdraw from the 1988 presidential campaign because of plagiarism

      Said he marched in the Civil Rights parade with Martin Luther King. Not true.

      Was arrested with Nelson Mandela. Not true

      Said his family was killed by a drunk driver. Not true. The driver was not drunk

      Said his house nearly burned to the ground when it was only a little kitchen fire that was put out in minutes by the fire department

      Said his son Beau died in Iraq when he actually died in the United States of brain cancer.

      Pinned a purple heart on his Uncle Frank 10 years after Uncle Frank died. There’s no record Uncle Frank won a purple heart.

      Said he came from a coal mining family. He did not

      Said you couldn’t get covid if you got vaccinated. Untrue

      Lied about forgiving student loan debt when he knew he did not have the authority to do so.
      Even Nancy Pelosi said so.

      Lied about border patrol agents whipping migrants

      Claimed he settled the railroad strike. Another lie.

      This is just a short list. There are lots more where these came from and they came from Biden.

      Biden will say or do anything knowing that he will not be held accountable. And that’s true.

      A noble person blames himself. An insignificant person blames others. That’s lying Joe Biden an insignificant president.

  6. Wow… only because the FBI is investigating him… this is such an incredible and fantastical story (not in a good way)

    1. *Under investigation* – how long has it taken to get to this point. Apologies for not getting more excited. Regards.

  7. McCarthy actually outed himself in his recent interview with Manu Raju. Earlier the word was that Georgie asked the Speaker to remove him from committees as a gesture of good faith, until things settled down. But when he was talking with Manu, Kevin slipped up and confirmed that he is not ALLOWING Georgie to be on committees. Everyone should watch and listen closely to Manu’s interview with Kevin. It’s so difficult to keep up with your own lies, when there are soooooo many of them … Kevin.

    1. I suspect that craven mccarthy was tapped in the shoulder and told that the individual known as george santos would not be getting a security clearance and would not be receiving confidential briefings on committee matters.

      They had to spin that to the press.

    4. @Phil Groves I may have a pea-brain but at least I have a brain.
      You are typical of a left-wing nut who cannot carry on an intelligent conversation without all the childish name-calling. What are you 12 years old?
      You apparently didn’t read the entire list of Biden’s lies. And he continues to be a pathological liar.
      You have no idea who I am or anything about me at all. Yet you presume facts not in evidence.
      Actually I also believe Santos should not hold office. Now what do you have to say?
      I don’t know where you got your education but I think you should get your money back.
      I can also see that you’re a result of very poor parenting.
      You’re also an insecure narcissist.

  8. If Santos had run as a Democrat, McCarthy would have made sure he was never allowed to be sworn in as a member of Congress. All Republicans and most, if not all Democrats would have voted not to accept Santos as a fellow Representative. But he ran as a Republican, so it’s all right.

    1. @wamblue * Is that all you got? Trying to belittle a great native American woman? Seek help, stop embarrassing yourself, although your probably not smart enough to realize your embarrassing, and uneducated.

  9. 79% of the constituents who voted for Santos want him to be removed. McCarthy is ignoring that fact. Shameful!!

    1. @brittany jordan  it’s easier for you to believe a lie than believe that you have been lied to. Like a toddler denying he stole the cake when he has chocolate all over his face. But Trump did say he loves the uneducated.

    2. Don’t y’all find it funny and disturbing that your “democratic” system doesn’t allow for this creature to be removed from office? “Don Corleone, I believe in America…” “If you had come to me in the first place, this man would be suffering this very day!”

    3. @m b  what exactly was she lied to about? Did you believe the lie of Russian collusion with trump? Did you believe the lie of how Hillary Clinton acquired the dossier? Did you believe the lie when they told you hunters laptop was fake? Geezus wake up.

    1. In Ugledar, when Polish mercenaries tried to kill the retreating Ukrainian soldiers, the Ukrainians returned fire and shot the Polish mercenaries! Polish mercenaries are shooting Ukrainians,, so that Ukrainians would not retreat! The Poles are a barrage squad, like in prison!_”

  10. For the first time in recorded history the words “George Santos” and “ethics” were used in the same sentence.

    1. Biden’s outright lies:

      Almost thrown out of law school for cheating.

  11. Don’t expect the repubs to hold Santos accountable for anything. They’re good at policing everyone but themselves😒🐘

  12. I can’t wait for his constituents to show up outside his door (I am assume either Wednesday or Thursday) and confront him. It will be priceless. Props to them for holding him accountable

  13. I grew up in New York, and if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that New Yorkers never give up. They are going to fight until they get what they want. Santos’ days are numbered. He just doesn’t know it or wants to accept it.
