So George Santos—if his name really is George Santos—will be sworn in Tuesday as a Republican member of Congress. What an insult this fraud is to every voter.

@StevenBeschloss And yet it's the logical outcome of the right wing movement.

Is any Democrat in power wondering how they didn't catch any of his lies during the campaign?

@nandor @StevenBeschloss
A preliminary oppo research book was done (by an intern or some such) but something like $30k was needed to chase the breadcrumbs. The campaign was short funds after a multi-candidate primary (late June?) so it didn't happen.

@StevenBeschloss Maybe voters will now learn to conduct their own research into a candidate’s fitness for office.

@Panamintquarters yeah because a single voter could have investigated what apparently no one else, even his peers, knew about him. 
Show threadDangandblastJan 3, 2023
@meowlygrowly @Panamintquarters it's the libertarian view - you must do all your own individual research on food safety, medicine efficacy, the construction of every building you enter or vehicle you drive, the honesty of every government figure and claim, and there should be no regulations or oversight or journalists or anything else. And if you're not an expert in every field and something goes wrong you didn't see through, your heirs can try to spread the word to warn others. Good luck!

@StevenBeschloss what’s even more insulting is that Republican supporters think it’s a witch hunt. Grow tf up people. This is our democracy. Not the kardashians. Get you heads out of your a$$es!!

@StevenBeschloss And what an insult to the DCCC, the media, etc. who allowed someone who's peddled this much unrelenting fraud for so many of his young years to get through a Congressional election without all of this news breaking during the election.

@StevenBeschloss He may be charged for a crime in Brazil though. Apparently it is 10 years old but they were unable to locate him. So this might have a different ending than he would like.

@StevenBeschloss you know when I was born the world was dealing with the cold war and we were told that the reds were the enemy. Nowadays those same people tell us their former enemy should be praised and that their war with the west is ok.

@StevenBeschloss Actually, no. The U.S. Congress is frozen in time - can do little or nothing until a speaker is chosen.
