Republican fraud George Santos was broke and unable to make rent, but suddenly came into a windfall of cash and was able to lend over $700,000 to his own campaign.

He did not report a single client on his financial disclosure.

Who is funding George Santos? And why?

@MeidasTouch Exactly, this is the real question.
@MeidasTouch
Another mysterious donation
@MeidasTouch same one that paid Judge Kavanough debts? Just my 2 cents
@MeidasTouch
I "repost" very few political post 🤔
Y'all's choice of always telling the truth is admirable 🕯️

@MeidasTouch Corrupt republicans.

Which is wild cause those two words are the answer to so many questions regarding the problems in American politics and society.

@MeidasTouch The same people who funded Herschel Walker. The GOP doesn't care about quality. They just want someone to sit in a seat and increase their numbers. This will be entertaining when they take over the House and start investigations. Maybe then we'll learn more about Jewish Space Lasers.
@gft77 @MeidasTouch “We don’t need someone who can think. We need someone with enough digits to hold a pen.” -Grover Norquist 2012
@kwh561 @MeidasTouch I haven't heard that name in a while. I'm not sure Herschel Walker ever showed the capability to hold a pen for anything other than get-well-soon abortion cards.
@gft77 @MeidasTouch if Jewish Space Lasers really existed, Santos, Walker, and MTG would no longer walk the earth. Just sayin'.
@MeidasTouch @carlsonj I want to know why there was no/few background checks by the media done until after his election 🗳️….
@WiredForFlight @MeidasTouch @carlsonj where were the democrats and their research?
@kkind @MeidasTouch @carlsonj a Very good pont. The ball was clearly dropped by many.
@kkind @WiredForFlight @MeidasTouch @carlsonj Yes. Where was the oppo research? This was low-hanging fruit!!
@MeidasTouch you don’t suppose it was someone associated with the Rs who laughed at his lies, do you?
@MeidasTouch #gop really knows how to pick their candidates
@MeidasTouch same question applies to Justice Kavannaugh I guess
@MeidasTouch can Meidas talk about Wilbur Ross and Vekselberg at some point? How they were partners in the Bank of Cyprus a money laundering operation for Russian oligarchs? Wilbur is quite the sketchy character and gets overlooked completely by media.
@robinbrenizer @MeidasTouch Wilbur is pretty well known among New Yorkers of a certain age. What an a-hole.
@robinbrenizer @MeidasTouch He is so old and decrepit they are just waiting for him to die. It’s cheaper than investigating him.

@MeidasTouch

Probably a billionaire named Peter who also funded many other candidates.

Maybe some of the dark money from SBF made it into George Santos' accounts.

@MeidasTouch We know why. But knowing who is vital and, hopefully, will lead to prosecutions.
@MeidasTouch The NYAG and the Washington DC AG will find out the source of this clown’s money when they depose him under oath.
@MeidasTouch Doesn’t the (underfunded) IRS notice odd cash flow things like this?
@MeidasTouch, question I’d like to have answered was why Robert Zimmerman (dem opponent) didn’t do basic oppo research prior to election
@MeidasTouch hope he goes to jail, he was’t embelishing he was flat out making a fake persona, no education, no job, no money and all of the sudden he came up with magic 700k when he was making 15dls an hours unable to make rent
@MeidasTouch Who paid off all of Bret Kavanaugh's debts? There's a lot of influence swirling on the GOP side, and little visibility!
@MeidasTouch
A bigger question is, will any Republican care? Is there any degree of dishonesty and criminality that will embarrass them?
@MeidasTouch sounds like he just Anna Delveyed himself up enough until some rich republican thought “well this is our guy, I got money!”
@MeidasTouch then comes American business
@MeidasTouch Word is that Viktor Vekselberg's cousin secretly funneled campaign cash to George Santos.
@MeidasTouch at what point does the GOP finally fit an Enterprise Corruption tag, then they can all go to jail?
@MeidasTouch @kbsez good question. Did they create his resume for him too?
@MeidasTouch probably the same person who paid off Kegger Kavanaugh's debts.
@MeidasTouch I am curious if he lied on his forms to put himself in as a candidate. If so, could the State prosecute him?
@MeidasTouch Comrade Santos has one client.

@MeidasTouch

$700K is a bargain to buy a politician and hold his nuts in a vise.

It was a small Long Island newspaper that warned the world about George Santos. They also could find NO evidence of him being born in the USA as he claims. Naturalized citizens require 7 years before being able to run for the House. He was married. Was it long enough? Article I, Section 2, Clause 2: No Person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the Age of twenty-five Years and been seven Years a Citizen of the United States.

@MeidasTouch THE FIRM! And that’s all we need to know. No more questions, please.
@MeidasTouch Don't know but they just bought themselves a seat and that is the real meat of the issue...
@MeidasTouch Oh, an American version of Darren Grimes. Only even worse.
@MeidasTouch I think Santos is the perfect candidate for Speaker. He meets all the qualifications: liar, cheat, tax evasion, criminal. A perfect GOP candidate.

@MeidasTouch
This is just a bridge too far! The republican political candidates are getting more and more shady. And, this Santos guy( if that’s even his real name) is suddenly, out of nowhere, brimming with money? That’s not suspicious, at all! 🙄

Investigate this joker!
😡😡😡

@MeidasTouch I am surprised voters are not outraged by all these lies and the in transparency of who is paying him
@MeidasTouch same people who put Mark Meadows in congress. Kochs.
@MeidasTouch Lies and misinformation have become commonplace, accepted, and now expected in GOP. Thanks to Donald Trump, truth is an enemy. Lies and extremism are virtues to be rewarded.
@MeidasTouch we really need to know who is behind this guy. He’s apparently a compulsive liar, at the very least.
@MeidasTouch
It will turn out to be a shadowy RW billionaire-funded organization that will pretend it paid Santos $700k in "consulting fees" so that he could coincidentally donote his "salary" to the campaign. Republican is a synonym for criminal.
@MeidasTouch Good question! Please find out.
