Fergasun Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 It's a lean Dem district that went to the Rs due to depressed Dem turnout. Santos is gone. The true reason they are keeping him in the seat is that it is it will be an easy seat to flip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see both Santos and Boebert booted out by voters in the next election. That would bode well for the Democrat. But the GOP still licks the boot. It isn't so much a Trump endorsement, it is a quiet little "what will you do to protect der Feuhrer?". And we know what Santos will do. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you suggesting that the Dems decided that enough of them should vote against removal because they think Santos will run for reelection? I had not considered that (my assumption is Dems want to further chip away at the extremely narrow GOP majority), and I don't think I agree, but it's a pretty interesting theory.

Larry Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Is this the same guy who didn't have a treasurer until they made him hire one? (Who immediately quit, when they got a look at the books?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooked Crack Posted November 14, 2023 Author Share Posted November 14, 2023 Quote Samuel Miele, 27, was charged in August with four counts of wire fraud and one count of aggravated identity theft. He pleaded guilty on Tuesday to one count of wire fraud will be sentenced on April 30. Miele, who was accused of impersonating an aide to then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) to drum up donations for Santos, is now the second Santos crony to cop a plea deal. Last month, former campaign treasurer Nancy Marks pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy, detailing how she submitted bogus financial reports to make it appear like Santos had more donors than he did. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
China Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 ‘He’ll be out’: Santos’ GOP critics anxiously await report they hope will help boot him Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) has evaded two efforts this year to oust him from the House. A third time could end up differently, depending on the results of a long-awaited ethics report this week. The House Ethics Committee is slated to release the findings of its investigation into Santos regarding a slew of charges, including campaign finance fraud and bribery, by Friday. If it’s damning, as many expect, New York Republicans who have called for his removal are likely to move quickly against him. Their previous effort fell short of the necessary two-thirds vote, as other Republicans argued against setting the precedent of expelling a member without a conviction. His trial on federal charges isn’t set to begin for nearly a year. Plus, there’s the ever-present problem of the House GOP’s slim majority. But some members who protected Santos last time have indicated that a convincing ethics report would change their minds. First-term Rep. John Duarte (R-Calif.) said he would consider voting to expel Santos if the Ethics panel concludes “there’s criminal wrongdoing.” “The one thing I want to make sure we’re not doing, whether it’s expulsion or censure, is lowering the standards,” he added. Still, it’s unclear whether a scathing ethics report would be enough to meet the high bar — it would take roughly 80 Republicans siding with all Democrats — for expulsion. Speaker Mike Johnson himself has broadly signaled that he doesn’t want to get ahead of Santos’ trial.

There are processes to deal with ethics violations; these aren't speedy, but there are reasons for that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
