George Santos just can't stop laying

George Santos’ Massive Campaign Loans May Not Be Legal

Even as Rep.-elect George Santos (R-NY) embarks on his apology tour, admitting he lied to voters for years about some of the most fundamental facts of his life, there’s been one mystery that Santos has been less than clear about: where his purported millions came from.

The Daily Beast now has at least part of the answer—the identities of four Santos corporate clients. And while this new revelation might put Santos in even more hot water, what Santos did with his newfound riches could be even more damning.

Santos has already admitted using cash from his company, the Devolder Organization, to fund his campaign—a move campaign finance experts say could add up to an unlawful $700,000 corporate contribution.

Andrew Intrater, cousin and money-manager to the sanctioned Russian oligarch Viktor Vekselberg, who contributed a combined $80,000 to the PAC, per state records. Intrater and his wife were also two of the largest donors to both Zeldin and Santos

Russian money all over the GOP No wonder they are so pro Russia, just like their dear leader.

How many more russia backed GOP can be found in Congress?

George Santos Keeps Giving Inconsistent Stories About His Mystery Millions

George Santos, the New York Republican who was elected to the House in November, has drawn much attention for his audacious lying. As a candidate, he said he had attended Baruch College. He said he worked for Goldman Sachs. He said he worked for Citigroup. Those were all lies. He claimed Jewish heritage and maintained that his ancestors had fled antisemitic persecution in Europe prior to World War II. It seems this was also a fabrication. (Santos told the New York Post he had made some things up but always has been clear that he was “Jew-ish.”)

And likely lied on his FEC financial disclosures, under penalty of perjury.

So Taco Bell does a better background check than the RNC? Sounds about right. They didn't verify a single thing about him. Also his Democratic opponent should be ashamed at having done zero opposition research. 

 NY Rep.-elect Santos investigated for lying about his past

NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. Rep.-elect George Santos of New York was under investigation by Long Island prosecutors on Wednesday, after revelations surfaced that the now-embattled Republican lied about his heritage, education and professional pedigree as he campaigned for office.

Despite intensifying doubt about his fitness to hold federal office, Santos has shown no signs of stepping aside — even as he publicly admitted to a long list of lies.

Nassau County District Attorney Anne T. Donnelly, a Republican, said the fabrications and inconsistencies were “nothing short of stunning.”

Shout-out to Jason Torchinsky from Jalopnik and The Autopian. The first time I'd ever heard of George Santos was last year when Jason called him out for lying about how much he was paying for gas. Then a year later it turns out the guy was lying about everything.

There simply couldn't be a better Poster Boy for what the republican party has become. Is this the kind of 'quailty canditate' that Mitch McConnel was referring to in the mid-terms? 

I'm actually impressed with the way this POS has drawn scrutiny so quickly. He's not even sworn into Congress and there's an investigation into him. That's a record even by GOP standards.

Rep.-elect George Santos admits to lying about resume, says he’s ‘not a criminal’

GOP Rep.-elect George Santos of New York admitted in two separate interviews on Monday to lying about parts of his resume but claimed that he hasn’t committed any crimes and intends to serve in Congress.

Santos has faced scrutiny over discrepancies in his employment and education history, as well as other public claims he has made about his biography. In interviews with WABC radio and the New York Post – the first times Santos has spoken publicly about the controversy – he acknowledged that he had fabricated some facts.

He lied about his resume, which means he’s lying about being a criminal. Also, the voters vote based on knowledge of a candidate...so if the candidate himself gave out false knowledge, seems that this was ELECTION FRAUD, right?

I believe one of the things in the original article was about him having a criminal record in Brazil. Something about passing bad checks or something. So he is technically a criminal,

Yes, he committed crimes in Brazil and it was checked by Brazilian media. He bought expensive clothes with false cheeks. The investigation was closed because he fled the country and never came back.

Republican accusation is always a projection

 

Meet Republican Congressman John Rose, his WIFE, and their two sons. They met when she was 16 and he awarded her a 4H scholarship.

The grooming is coming from inside the glass house...

When they see a man in a dress who is with a child and think something sexual is happening, they are telling on themselves. Twice.

Reminds me of the teachers that screech about the girls wearing crop tops and spaghetti straps saying, "they'll be a distraction in class!" A distraction for whom, Mr. Davis? For whom?

Reminder that the entire "groomer" thing from the GOP started as a cover for the TN House of Representatives trying to advance House Bill 223 which would legalize child brides.

The very same TN House of Representatives this sleazy pervert voted in.

Republicans have been fighting to keep child marriage alive throughout the country.

U.S. gas prices are now lower than a year ago

U.S. gas prices are now lower than a year ago

After months in which gasoline prices in the United States have been one of the most visible symbols of inflation, they have a new distinction: Prices at the pump are now lower than they were a year ago.

The reversal of the price escalation that accompanied Russia’s invasion of Ukraine will ease pressure on American consumers dealing with the high cost of other essentials.

The drop in gasoline prices was led by a decline in worldwide energy demand, which drove oil prices lower. The national average price for regular gasoline stood at $3.33 a gallon on Thursday, according to AAA. A year ago, the average price at the pump was $3.34.

I'm sure all the conservatives will be thanking Biden any time now...

Those "i did that" stickers have a bit of an ironic edge to them now, though i doubt the people who put them up will appreciate it.

They're brainwashed. Their feelings don't care about facts. They'll confidently (and incorrectly) assert that gas prices were $1.25 when trump was in office, and that they saw gas at $6.50 this morning. They don't care about being accurate, they just want to feel justified in the hate they choose to flow through them, and they do this by pretending that they're right and winning.

Not surprising gas prices dropped like right after midterms. It was around 4$ a gallon around me on election day. It then "mysteriously" dropped to around 3.20$ a day or so later. But no, gas corporations totally don't inflate prices around elections to help their Republicans backers.

I get gas for 2.50 a gallon in Tennessee it amazingly dropped from over $3 to $2.50 right after the midterms. Man it’s amazing how corporations jack up prices to get their way in elections then drop the prices when the election is over. It’s amazing. Fuck corps and anyone who thinks it’s democrats fault for gas prices.

Here in Michigan it went from 4.25 on Election Day to 2.99 today. Total racket.

It was amazing how back around the election here in Ohio the prices were about $3.65 then on the day before the election all the sudden they jump to $3.99 everywhere and then after the election they immediately start dropping till we are currently at about $3.00.

Weird it’s almost like they were kept at inflated levels through the election season.

 

Republicans are for the people?

 

And let's not forget that Trump released 5,000 Taliban prisoners for nothing in return. Or at least that we know of.

Most of the world is aware of the mad as shit gun/politics in the US. Almost accustomed to it. A mass shooting of some sort every day. I know it's a massive country but still.. it's almost shrugged off a bit now.

If nobody knew and the world was suddenly exposed to the whole gun, school shootings, shooter drills, consideration of armed teachers, USA, 2nd Amendment, etc etc..

The world would be completely dumbfounded. It is absolutely mental what happens there and how it seems many, many people are happy with it.

So, are the republicans saying that the United States democrats are responsible for the economy worldwide? Do they not realize prices are up everywhere? What kind of idiot do you have to be to vote for a Republican?

And didn't every republican vote against the anti inflation bill because they didn't want anything good happening while Biden was in office. republicans are evil and republican voters are the dumbest most hateful people around.

And the gas price gouging bill and the $25 cap on insulin prices.

And raising minimum wage to $15.

And the emergency baby formula bill.

Noose around Trumps necks getting tight

Trump Says New York ‘Hard Place To Be A Trump’ After Company Convicted Of Tax Fraud

Former President Donald Trump issued a furious statement Tuesday after his company was convicted of tax fraud and other crimes that Manhattan’s district attorney characterized as part of a long pattern of “greed,” “lies” and “cheating.”

New York is a hard place to be a criminal.

Prison is an even harder place to be bro.

 The Trump Organization was convicted on all 17 counts, a stunning guilty verdict.

 Donald Trump condemned for 'anti-American and fascist' proposal to terminate the Constitution

Donald Trump's suggestion that the United States disregard rules and regulations including "those found in the Constitution" drew scathing rebukes from politicians of both parties, with a top Democrat calling it "a danger to our democracy."

What many saw as a bizarre proposal from a singularly unconventional former president came in his latest social media post hammering away at baseless conspiracy theories about the 2020 election, which he lost to Joe Biden.

The party for the constitution, if and when it suits them.

What you see is a very scared old man afraid he will be going behind bars in the not too distant future.

Under fire, Trump denies writing what he wrote about Constitution

“The Fake News is actually trying to convince the American People that I said I wanted to ‘terminate’ the Constitution. This is simply more DISINFORMATION & LIES, just like RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, and all of their other HOAXES & SCAMS. What I said was that when there is ‘MASSIVE & WIDESPREAD FRAUD & DECEPTION,’ as has been irrefutably proven in the 2020 Presidential Election, steps must be immediately taken to RIGHT THE WRONG. Only FOOLS would disagree with that and accept STOLEN ELECTIONS. MAGA!”

So he's telling people not to believe what they saw with their own two eyes.
