Scandal in the Wind 2023. George Santos gets Sashayed

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

Here's the riddle, of the cosmos. Who the hell is George D. Santos?

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

The only part of Santos' bio I am willing to believe without further evidence is that he was born in Queens to Brazilian-American parents and that his mother had died.
The man is clearly a serial liar.

...in what possible universe was 'Devolder' ever a plausible name for a supposedly Ukrainian Jewish family? That ought to have been flagged up immediately.

Google says that Devolder is Dutch/Flemish in origin.

What sort of horrible opposition research did the dems do with this guy?

NY Dems really botched this whole election, not just with this seat

Well the good news is that if he’s a Florida resident as alleged then they will almost certainly have an opportunity to win this seat back in a special election. Everything else reported on thus far is constitutionally ok, but lying about state residency is an enormous no-no.

It would not surprise me if he did feel like he could get away with lying about his state residency. After all, he got away with lying about everything else...

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

ARREST HIM NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if he were black he would have already been thrown in jail

Do we know for sure he isn't Black?

No. He's definitely from Sri Lanka.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

He lied about lying about being jewish.

George Santos. The layers of lies never end!

Personally, I consider Hispanic and Latino synonyms and Brazilians to count as Latinos because Portugal, like Spain, shares in Iberian Latin-derived culture and was part of Roman Hispania.
Brazilians may identify as Lusophone, but Lusophone is not a common term in America and there's enough common ground for them to count as Latino, given they are routinely classified as being part of Latin America.
This has to be one of the few areas I cut Santos any slack, given the man is a serial liar.

Ok, this is weird. He's just inventing a label here. To go boldly where no Santos has gone before!

Santos/Devolder 2024!

Ineligible to win Brazil's electoral votes by default. But there's no way he's winning Brazil anyway, they just elected a socialist.

Add another one to the list:

Is there anything he can’t do!

George Santos is an alien. Not an alien as in illegal alien, aka someone from another country illegally in this country. An alien as in literally out of this world. He's from a planet called Krypton. His name is Kal-El and he's actually got superpowers. He's hiding them from us this whole time, but make no mistake...he has them.
That's the real cover-up here.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

he stole money from a disabled veteran's dying dog?

how? how do you manage to check all the boxes of someone who's a real POS? I'm not even getting angrier at this point, I'm more impressed Santos was able to keep a lid on all this for so long.

He's sleazier than I.M. Slime.

BREAKING: George Santos is Sneakers O'Toole

George Santos Claims Someone Tried to Murder Him and That His Shoes Were Stolen off His Feet on Fifth Avenue

Is this real? I cant tell if this is satire

I know the man who did it. It was Donald Trump. Remember how he said he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and not lose any voters?

The Hannah Montana lie is the most amazing one yet. Somehow, whenever you think it can't be topped...


also why don't I get a congressional pension? Very unfair.

That Hannah Montana might come up in a congressional scandal in 2023? We live in the Best Timeline!

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

My kid dragged me to see that musical 10 or so years ago and cried the entire drive home.

Yet another one of George Santos' crimes.

The NYPD is bigoted against Brazilian-Americans!
