The funniest crime he did was write bad checks to the Amish for puppies. That’s some off-the-charts levels of dirtbaggery.
Honestly, the Amish run straight up puppy mills, so it's kind of what they deserved.
Two wrongs don’t make a right.
I guess, but people who run puppy mills are generally pretty awful people, so I can't feel bad about them getting screwed over for a relatively small amount of money. I had a rescue who was used as a stud in a puppy mill for his first 7 years and seeing the condition he was in when we got him and the amount of work it took to get him to feel safe, I just do not care what happens to the people who run them. They should all be shut down, have all of their animals confiscated, and have to pay every dime they've ever made off dogs to animal rescues. A bad check is like, the smallest possible amount of karma.
Sure they do
Sounds like sour grapes to me. But I'm sure the real reason he's so upset is because he got caught and has lost prime opportunities for grifting.
He's not too happy about the legal issues he's facing either.
He doesn't want to go back to dancing for dimes at the birdcage
He wrote on X
Oh? Huh.
goes back to other thing
X is formerly known as Twitter, for anyone who was confused as I was
Tweets are called Xcrements
David Pakman, is that you?
They're gonna have to change their name to "X formerly known as twitter" that's the only way I see it named now.
Now known as Xitter.
Yes, scorched earth pls!
I bet the dnc can find some pocket change to help him out here
He's gone now, why would we still give a shit what he has to say?
The only other news I want to hear about the guy is how he's getting locked up.
Nah, I want him to share as much shit about the GOP as he can.
The only problem is that everything he says is a lie..
And even if everything he spilled was 100% true and verifiable, all it would do is make us feel righteous for always knowing those people were...well, those people. The ones that voted for them will never hear about it, and if they do, they won't really care because its not about electing someone who shares your best values but about electing someone who justifies the parts of you society abhors.
What are you talking about? He's comedy gold!
So was trump
Cry harder Santos report more people for ethics complaints
The more people like him we can get out of Congress the better
If you didn't want to stay there why did you fight so hard to do so?
Who gives a fuck what he thinks or says?
Bye Felicia!
Some shitbags need to be put in particular situations where they can be useful, if not for the right reasons, then at least due to poor motivations such that others can benefit from their actions.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
George Santos, the disgraced New York Republican who was expelled from the US House on Friday, spent his first hours as a former congressman railing against his former colleagues and saying he would file ethics complaints against four of them on Monday.
He wrote on X that he would file an ethics complaint against three fellow Republicans from New York – Mike Lawler, Nicole Malliotakis and Nick LaLota – who had long pushed to oust him from Congress.
He also urged a Republican in Congress to have the “testicular fortitude” to move to expel Jamaal Bowman, a New York Democrat, who pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and paid a fine for setting off a fire alarm in a congressional office building.
His expulsion came shortly after a report from the House ethics committee detailed how he spent campaign funds on luxury goods, cosmetics and an OnlyFans subscription.
After being elected to Congress to represent Long Island and Queens last year, Santos quickly earned a reputation as a prolific liar.
Among other things, he lied about working on Wall Street, that his mother died during 9/11, and that he was a volleyball star in college.
The original article contains 375 words, the summary contains 194 words. Saved 48%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Have to admit “testicular fortitude” would be a great band name….
Dunno if it is evocative of actual toughness and determination though. How much fortitude can testicles have when just shifting the wrong way in bed can cause one to sack themselves and need to take a minute?
Say 'It Stinks!' George, say it.
To hell with you, yourself, you shitbag.
