Tony Stark

It tells you all you need to know about today’s Republicans that not one member of GOP House leadership has spoken out about Santos.

Padding your resume is saying you speak conversational Spanish when you last took it in college 10 years ago but can carry on a basic conversation still. Making up your educational history, financial history, work history, or ethnic background is straight up fraud, and most employers would go on to fire you if they discovered those lies. How would anyone ever trust this man with literally anything even in a normal job ever again, let alone let him participate in our national government? Despicable.

The question remains where did Santos’ money come from? Who financed this campaign? Can’t wait to find out.

Federal prosecutors looking into George Santos' seemingly sudden wealth, sources tell ABC News

When he first ran for Congress in 2020, Santos listed no assets and a salary of $55,000. During his most recent run, Santos said he was a millionaire.

@TonyStark If his continual pathological lying and fraud aren't enough to disgust people, his rapidly emerging arrogance and narcissistic sociopathy should do it. He has no shame and is just getting started for whatever nefarious purpose he's being backed by GOP. I'd ask how voters could have possibly picked him, but then I remember: in Trumpland, the worst is their ideal.

@TonyStark @DebR I’ve read that he was bankrolled via dark money. Some of which came from a Russian Oligarch. Another reason why we need to get rid of Dark Money. I thought that having people from other countries give money to campaigns was illegal.

George Santos’ Massive Campaign Loans May Not Be Legal

Rep.-elect George Santos managed to loan his campaign $700,000. How he did that has been a bit of a mystery. But it also may have been illegal.

Show threadKaroli Dec 30, 2022
@DebR @Porpentina2017 @TonyStark in this case, it wasn’t so much the traditional dark money that we’re all familiar with, but appears to be through his shell corporation. And there is a problem because the corporation needed to pay him the money first before he loaned it. He “forgot” that part, loaning directly from the corporation. So now tax evasion charges are likely too.

Yes. He is now claiming that the money came from his fipping luxury assets like yachts and planes on the ‘down low’ for a finders fee. That gets potential illegality like tax evasion and money laundering.

@TonyStark The notion of a Conman as the standard bearer of the Republican Party was instituted back in 2016. Just as they elevated the psychopathic narcissist Trump to the top because it was seen as their chance to gain power, they will back Santos, minimize & excuse his lies & crimes, even deny reality, to keep their pitiful majority in the House. The GOP has no moral compass because they lost their morals long time ago, and Kevin McCarthy will stop at nothing to become Speaker.

Want to know one big difference between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party? If Santos were a Democrat, everyone in the party structure, including Joe Biden, every Senator, and every Congressman, would be demanding his immediate resignation.
