"George Santos: A History of Corruption, Expulsion, and Scandal"

TL;DR Summary
The US House of Representatives is considering the expulsion of Congressman George Santos, who is facing multiple felony indictments. If approved, it would be only the sixth time in history that the House has expelled one of its own members. Previous expulsions have involved politicians convicted of corruption, bribery, treason, and treachery. Most politicians facing expulsion tend to resign before being expelled, but Santos has remained defiant. The most recent expulsion occurred in 2002, while the only other modern expulsion took place in 1980. If Santos is expelled, a special election will be held to fill his seat.
