HeadlineNov 17, 2023

Embattled New York congressmember and serial liar George Santos said Thursday he won’t seek reelection, after the House Ethics Committee found substantial evidence the freshman Republican committed numerous felony crimes.

He blatantly stole from his campaign. He deceived donors into providing what they thought were contributions to his campaign but were in fact payments for his personal benefit.”
