The NYTimes today published a piece showing that this newly elected GOP Congressman from NY fabricated most of the life story he told on the campaign trail. The fact that this statement on his behalf ends with a fake Churchill quote is just...I mean come on now...if I wrote it in a piece of fiction you'd give me a stern talking to about how hamfisted that detail was.

@sethcotlar This is basically saying "it's a witch hunt" w/o saying anything specific, without any rebuttal, and not calling the article authors liars and opening himself up to a potential defamation lawsuit.

Santos's own backers are probably embarrassed at how awful this lawyer's statement is.

If the House Ethics Committee has jurisdiction over pre-election lies/fraud, then this freshman congressman is in for a very uncomfortable welcome to his new job.

An excellent statement from Rep. Swalwell sums this up better than I could:

"There 132 words in this statement. But not one addresses the mountain of evidence that you’re a wanted international criminal who lied about graduating college and where you worked."

Perhaps some public spirited citizen can inform a Peruvian court where to serve a bench warrant on George Santos ...

@CarlG314 @sethcotlar "This is nothing but a witch hunt!" declared the High Warlock, as he piloted his broom over the heads of the crowd, casting lightning bolts at his detractors.
