George Santos stepped in dog scam and other piles of lies

George Santos, if that's his real name

Serial liar New York Rep. George Santos (R) stepped down from his committee assignments as an attempt to assuage the public's questioning his legitimacy as a congressman, but things may get a lot worse for him.

The Department of Justice [DoJ] just took over the investigation into the embattled bozo's campaign finance activity recently and it looks as if they will have plenty of damning material to work with. 

First of all, a new report from Mother Jones provides the results of an investigation into myriad campaign contributions that Santos claimed to receive from some of his relatives who live in Queens, New York, totaling more than $45,000. 

Some of Santos' donors are figments of his imagination [aka creation]. They don't exist, but his relatives do, and while they seem to be incredibly generous, one of them who was visited by the media was "dumbfounded" by the notion that they had been a maximum-level donor to Santos' campaign. The family member insisted that they had not given Santos' campaign a single penny, and this is a serious problem for him.

The veracity-impoverished congressman's campaign filings with the Federal Election Commission (FEC), stated that he pulled in over $45,000 from his Queens relatives. Included in the mix, a mail handler was listed to have given over $4,000, a painter donated the maximum of $5,800, a student also gave $5,800. One of his relatives said they did not make any donation but was listed as having given $5,800.

And while Mother Jones is an obvious left-wing paper, they deserve credit for this kind of reporting. Of course, if Santos had been a Democrat, who knows what, if any, reporting would have taken place.

Santos’ sister is listed as having donated more than $5,000 to his campaign, but when Mother Jones contacted her, she would neither confirm nor deny that she or anyone else in the family had contributed to his campaign. Interestingly, this sister was recently facing possible eviction from her home over failure to pay her rent, and making a donation she was alleged to have made, seems kind of Santos-ish.

Lying about campaign contributions is a criminal offense and could actually get Santos prison time, which would obviously force him out of Congress. If the allegations are proven true, that shows how incompetent a criminal he is.

According to an NBC poll this week, 78% of Santos’ voters want him to resign. “And yet he persists.”

In another unrelated Santos story of an accusation leveled at him by Richard Osthoff, a Navy veteran, in which Santos was alleged to have stolen $3,000 from a GoFundMe account set up to pay for cancer surgery for his service dog, and then the account disappeared. It was supposedly administered by Santos' "Friends of Pets United," a fake charity that did not exist.

The FBI has spoken to Osthoff who claims the lying Long Island Rep. George Santos conned him out of thousands of dollars meant to go toward saving his dying service dog, according to a report.

So time will tell whether this scumbag remains in office. Anyone who would screw a pet owner out of life saving surgery and steal his money, needs to get what he deserves.

I suspect he will be getting a not so friendly knocking on his office door.
