U.S. House Debate on Resolution Expelling Rep. George Santos (R-NY)

[@radianttiger2307]

Santos thinks this whole process is a game, a charade, but what this clown is failing to understand is that this is a cause of his own doing. He brought this all on and HE is the reason this whole process is even taking place. No admission, no accountability, no regret. He maintains his ability to continue to mock and deface the value of the United State Congress's reputation.

[@dominicdipentino9548]

Exactly, Mark. Not one drop of remorse or shame. The only thing he seems to regret is getting caught. He is definitely laughing at this whole thing and I suspect the testimonials from his fellow dirtbags cause Santos to feel he has some leverage.

[@ashh1346]

Yep. But he's a pathological lying narcissist. He will never admit wrongdoing, nor is he capable of empathy so he doesn't regret his actions at all! He is LOVING this attention and he will drag it out as long as possible.

I disagree. These sorts of things should be a very deliberate process for two reasons; first, it assures that the decision to expel is fully justified by gathering all the facts and information possible. Second, it leaves no room for the accused and his supporters to claim that the decision was made hastily (as demonstrated by the arguments made by the ethics committee in this video).

Can't stand to watch this.....sickening...

[@asaprocky8195]

So, I just watched the special session of our Congress trying to deal with passing a resolution to expel Republican House Representative Santos for the list of charges accumulated against him by the House Ethics Committee. Santos claims he can't be removed, because he has not been convicted of any wrong doing, and that the voters must decide. Based on that, the argument in his defense, has been made that the decision to remove him from office must come from the voters in his Congressional district. (That they voted him in, so it's up to them to vote him out.) Well, I take issue with that view presented in parenthesis for this reason: The voters voted in favor of a person that they were LED to believe existed, by lies presented by Santos regarding his own qualifications, lies that he has admitted to in the false fabrication of his qualifications. Therefore, the person that the voters voted for DOES NOT EXIST. They did NOT vote for the existing person named Santos .... in fact they voted for a mythical somebody else, one that they were told with lies, who had a set of qualifications that met their voter approval. Therefore, the voters in that district need not be called upon to vote out Santos, since they never actually voted him in, thus it should be the duty of the House of Representatives to remove the imposter among their ranks, the one named Santos. And with that, I would throw him out and refer the balance of the charges found in their indictment of Santos, to the District Attorney of New York to be considered for criminal investigation and prosecution in the appropriate court(s) of law, depending on the standing of laws breached being Federal, State, Local, or any. Just my opinion, and I'm no lawyer.

[@chicagozulu]

Can't wait for SNL this weekend. I wonder what their skit will be on Santos speaking. Lol. This is rich him calling others liars

[@gottagoguylo]

What a waste of taxpayers money. Just kick him out and put him in prison

[@lindaburger2695]

Santos assasinated his own character, anyone speaking out for his expulsion is just trying to get him to see past his own denial. He's an embarassment and a thief

[@tr7b410]

Todays Republican party:Where fame & fortune is their number 1 priority. Santos is a symptom of this Pathos,not the sickness itself.

[@WhiteThumbs]

Most people would step down, that's why it doesn't happen often. MAYBE AMERICA SHOULD GET RID OF FIRE AT WILL EMPLOYMENT if congress is not held to the same standards as the rest of US

[@christinemurphy2473]

Vote blue💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

[@tbrucia]

Only in the House could people spend days and days debating whether to send Santos packing. Just VOTE! Get it DONE and move on!

[@stephenflack8200]

They will do anything for a single vote !!

[@annedouglas1456]

Screams desperation!!!

[@billwagner5239]

Mr Higgins to repeat my earlier comment THE PEOPLE DID NOT ELECT MR SANTOS BUT HIS IMAGINARY FRIEND THAT HE INVENTED. Yes, I am shouting because I cannot accept the lack of cleat thinking by elected officials.

[@feltthefluff]

The room looks pretty much empty, is this not part of the job they have?

[@dianev6180]

even Matt Gaetz rolled his eyes at George Santos, who if you are recall promised to step down if ethics violation were found. Hey George, "as if" they needed to keep digging. THEY HAVE PLENTY!!!! GO AWAY!

[@bunnycox1046]

WHY IS THERE ANY DOUBT THAT A CHEATING LIAR SHOULD BE KICKED OUT

[@ssmith3513]

Could it be that something like this has never happened before, because no one has eve been so corrupt, so arrogant, and such a deceitful liar as Santos has been?

[@jeanshankey7951]

VOTE BLUE EVERYWHERE FOREVER 💙💙💙💙

[@hamentaschen]

Wait... They have to debate this??!!

[@PatGillin]

A precedent should be set. Expel Santos or the next guy who wants to defraud all that he did, can say - well that looks like anyone can just make up a life and run for congress. Stop them, Expel him.

[@frankforgett7409]

WTH is Santos talking about with his victim mentality argument?!?!😂. A Lilly pad for Santos lMFAO😂😂 what a mockery the halls of Congress has become.

[@bingusbingus776]

VOTE BLUE AGAIN AMERICA.

[@MikeDavis-kb3vo]

Why?

[@jbninjah1776]

lol. vote blue if you think sexually mutilating children is ok

[@JLBarela6999]

I watched this,all the men who stood up for this guy, all bellowing about his not being convicted,being paraded in public,ruining his reputation,almost made me vomit. I'm so tired of hearing this will set precedence,well that's the point.So the next guy will not try the same stunt...
