McCarthy confirms House ethics panel to probe George Santos



House Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has confirmed on Tuesday that the House Ethics Committee is planning to look into Rep. George Santos (R-NY), a serial liar.

“Ethics is moving through, and if Ethics finds something, we’ll take action,” McCarthy told the progressive media of CNN. “Right now, we’re not allowing him to be on committees from the standpoint of the questions that have arisen.”

Santos even seems to have lied about that when he said that he asked not to be on any House committees.

Santos, 34, has been facing at least two ethics complaints regarding his admitted lying about his background, education, religion and charitable work — while federal investigators reportedly are examining whether he violated campaign finance law, which appears that he did.

McCarthy said “we’ll take action” if the ethics probe uncovers any wrongdoing.

Despite the multiple controversies swirling around him — including a recent sexual harassment complaint by a prospective staffer — Santos has vowed to remain in office until the next election in 2024, because the job at McDonalds was no longer available.
