"Speaker Johnson and George Santos Discuss 'Options' Amidst Looming Expulsion"
TL;DR
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) revealed that he spoke with Rep. George Santos (R-NY) "about his options" ahead of a potential vote to expel Santos from Congress. Santos is facing a third expulsion vote following a damning ethics report detailing his abuse of campaign funds, including lavish trips, luxury goods, and X-rated OnlyFans subscriptions. The expulsion resolution requires a two-thirds vote to pass, and Democrats may file their own expulsion resolution. Santos has pleaded not guilty to federal charges of campaign finance fraud and has announced that he will not seek re-election in 2024.
