Santos in federal custody as feds unseal 13-count indictment

Lol how many “loans” has Biden had to cop to so far that he hasn’t paid taxes on? I wonder how many more “loans” he will be forced to cop to now that Comer is getting his bank records?

Don’t pretend like y’all give a **** about corruption when you support a president who is clearly taking money from foreign entities.

 

I don't know. How many ? Do you have some verified information that I don't ? Or are you just making up more Republican propaganda ?

As for corruption, is this an absolute scale or a relative one ? Do we get to compare right-wing concern for corruption versus left-wing ?

 

If he's not outed before then Santos will try and take this case to the Jan.2025 finish line for a congressional paycheck.
Otherwise he's up ****'s creek cause I doubt job opportunities will be a coming so he'll be like so many other Republicans lately, BEGGING for donations.

 

Looks like the NY R's who brought the Santos expulsion vote jumped the gun by a few weeks, after the House Ethics report was released today

Followed up almost immediately by Lyin' George saying he will now NOT seek re-election in 2024.

(Translation - he's seeking re-election, since he's Lyin' George).

 

Ooopsie !

Of course, following the Orange Turd's example, Santos will admit nothing, plead not guilty, and stay in office til the end of his term.

 

Sen. Menendez:

'The Menendez Indictment Reveals Exactly How Senate Ethics Enforcement is Broken'

Snip:

"But these repeated offenses beg the question: Is the Senate incapable of finding and rooting out potential corruption before it becomes a crime?

The answer seems likely to be yes. Unlike the House of Representatives and every major executive branch agency, the Senate has no independent body that is dedicated to investigating ethics violations, fraud, waste, or abuse.

The ethics process in the Senate is a black box: A concerned citizen or Senate colleague could file a complaint with the Senate Select Committee on Ethics (Ethics Committee), but there is no public process for bringing that complaint through an investigation and to a resolution.

The Ethics Committee, while bipartisan, is still comprised of members of the Senate tasked with investigating and punishing their colleagues, on whom they rely for getting critical votes for legislation in a closely divided chamber.

This system does not work.

A recent study found that of the 1,523 complaints sent to the Senate Ethics Committee since 2007, zero resulted in any formal disciplinary sanctions over 15 years. This is a pervasive ethics enforcement problem in the Senate that has flown under the radar for far too long, and it will only become worse unless we put a stop to the status quo of self-policing.'

His father and aunt(?) were a blip on the screen when it was reported they signed for his non-money restrictions and never heard zilch about them afterwards.
What a pathetic joke he is.


"I will continue on my mission to serve my constituents up until I am allowed. I will however NOT be seeking re-election for a second term in 2024 as my family deserves better than to be under the gun from the press all the time,” Santos wrote on X, formerly called Twitter.

The announcement is a reversal for Santos, who told CNN in an interview earlier this month that he would run for his seat next year even if the House voted to expel him.'
