Rep. George Santos Anticipates Expulsion from Congress Amid Scandal

Santos Defiant in Face of Expulsion, Accuses Colleagues of Misconduct

Rep. George Santos, a New York Republican, expects to be expelled from Congress following a scathing report by the House Ethics Committee that found substantial evidence of lawbreaking.
Santos has been accused of using campaign funds for personal purposes, such as purchases at luxury retailers and adult content websites, then causing the campaign to file false or incomplete reports.
The House Ethics Committee's report also noted that Santos did not cooperate with the report and repeatedly “evaded” straightforward requests for information.
In a defiant speech on X Spaces, Santos insisted he was “not going anywhere” and lashed out at his congressional colleagues, accusing them of misconduct.
Santos has survived two expulsion votes, but many of his colleagues who formerly opposed the effort now say they support it, citing the findings of the committee’s investigation.
