Six freshman Republican members of Congress from New York want to disown lying Long Island Rep. George Santos.
Nassau County Rep. Anthony D’Esposito announced Wednesday that he will be “introducing an expulsion resolution to rid the People’s House of fraudster, George Santos” following a superseding indictment against his fellow Republican that dropped Tuesday.
“Right now, we’re focused on removing him from Congress,” D’Esposito told reporters when asked whether Republicans would remove Santos from their conference before kicking him out of office.
Empire State GOP Reps. Nick LaLota, Mike Lawler, Marc Molinaro, Nick Langworthy and Brandon Williams will co-sponsor the measure, which needs a two-thirds majority to be successful.
“He has no business being in the halls of the House of Representatives. He’s an immoral person, he’s not a trustworthy person,” LaLota told reporters Wednesday.
*** Today, I’ll be introducing an expulsion resolution to rid the People’s House of fraudster, George Santos. The resolution will be co-sponsored by fellow #NewYork freshman @RepLaLota @RepMikeLawler @RepMolinaroNY19 @RepLangworthy @RepWilliams.
Santos was slapped with 10 additional counts by the Eastern District of New York on Tuesday, bringing the total number of charges pending against him to 23.
The lawmaker stands accused of embezzling money from his campaign, lying to Congress, falsifying records with the Federal Election Commission, stealing the identities of campaign donors, and racking up tens of thousands of dollars on their credit cards without authorization.
“I’m going to continue to fight this … Nothing changes,” Santos told reporters on Capitol Hill Wednesday.***

Isn’t there a NJ Senator who has cash stashed all around his house?
Let the voters primary him out.
But Hamas supporters and fire alarm pullers are just fine
Pot...kettle.
Don’t forget the gold bars. He must be a follower of the William Devane school of investing.
He should pull a fire alarm right before they vote.
Is Menendez stepping down, I didn’t think so!!!
Let s give the Dems another seat .
Another NY Rhino Great idea.
Rhino Alert .
The House RepukeLickings are getting uncomfortable having the majority in the House...
It would be a cold day in Heck when the Mafia Princess gave up even ONE House seat to the other side.
The dems want to get rid of Santos for lying??? Take a look at Josef Stalin Biden!!!
Santos or more entertaining and less fake than the rest of these clowns !
>> he’s not a trustworthy person
laughable given the allegations represent a miniscule fraction of the unauthorized trillions charged against the taxpayers.
All but done with the Republiturds!!!!!
The first ones to throw out their own!
I like Santos and Melendez. They should Hispanics can be just as corrupt as regular American politicians .
“Let the voters primary him out.”
***********
Exactly. They should let the voters sort it out and focus their energy on working to impeach Mayorkas, Garland and Biden. But instead the Republicans always turn on themselves.
“The House RepukeLickings are getting uncomfortable having the majority in the House.”
*************
The Republicans simply do not want to lead.
Gotta keep muh principles. Democrats laugh and sneer at these fools.
He is pretty bad, let’s face it.
While acknowledging he has to go, let’s not misunderstand that the Democrats will be doing everything they can, including dropping banana peels on the stairs in front of GOP members (from states with Democratic Governors.) The margin is getting close enough that you have to expect some manipulation in an attempt to tip the balance before January of 2025. House Leadership - wake up and pay attention!
Doing what republicans do best, attack their own because they lack the testicules to go after Ilhan and Talib and expel those two ingrates.
