That should have been left to his district’s voters, not the leftists/RINOs in the House.

I understand why it should be done but I don’t understand doing it! Not in the current environment. Not a single voter will be impressed by this! The voters should do this the next election, if they want to! All this does is weaken the current slim majority.

He said he will unload dirt on a bunch of them. Hmmmn? I wonder if he will.

I hope he does. Even the worst folks can sometimes do something good, and revealing all of the snakes would be a good thing, regardless of party.

But I don't think anyone (who needs to hear it) would listen to him. He was already damaged goods, and now even more so now.

Bob Menendez who is suspected to have slept with underage prostitutes in the Dominican Republic is still fit to serve in the Senate. I’m not saying Santos is a great guy, but deal with the other scum first before worrying about this harmless clown.

If there is dirt, unload it! Congress needs a house-cleaning.

I’m voting for Trump in 2024 to try and get my vote back that was stolen in 2020 and then I’m never voting for another R again. I’ll vote for a dumb as a box of rocks L before a traitor R

Exactly. This sets a very bad precedent.

The Demorats would never vote against their own.

Please, this POS should have never ever been in congress...

The fact he was shows just how pathetic the press and the GOP are at doing their jobs.

Just because someone has an R beside their name doesn’t mean they get a free pass.

Special election, IIUC.

Great job Repubs! A razor thin majority and you hand a seat to the dems!

Idiots.

“Santos lied about everything.”

“Nonsense. Santos ran as MAGA and has voted MAGA.”

OK, he just lied about everything else. And stole money from donors.

If they expelled jerks, there wouldn’t be anyone left in Congress.

We'd lose over half the country :)

Another example of Mike Johnson’s failed leadership.

At least half of those who voted to remove are guilty to some degree of the same thing bank it.

We already knew the GOP could toss its own. It’s Democrats that are untouchable. The Democrats laugh and prepare to occupy the seat.

This guy was not convicted of anything. If the sanctimonious pigs in the House want to get rid of a corrupt politician how about impeaching the brain dead POS in the White House.

More excuses for the GOP to not pass anything that resembles conservative legislation.
