"George Santos: The Unyielding Mary Magdalene of Congress"
TL;DR
Rep. George Santos, a disgraced New York Republican facing expulsion from Congress, went on a three-hour rant accusing his colleagues of felonies and unethical behavior. Santos, who is likely to be expelled after a House investigation confirmed his fraudulent exploitation of his candidacy for personal financial gain, announced that he will not seek reelection. He claimed that his decision was unrelated to the damning report and instead criticized his colleagues as hypocrites.
