George Santos Is Full of Surprises (UPDATED)

 


So, we've covered that George Santos is a fraud, and that he is likely funded with foreign money because frauds are susceptible to manipulation. And it's been widely corroborated--he's a fraud. Backed with Russian money.  He was part of a Ponzi scheme, he's engaged in all kinds of petty theft, and he lies about his name and his family whenever he can. His access to sensitive information as part of the US Congress is just unthinkable given his pathological mendacity. 

So to hammer home in a way that gives a face to the kind of creature this is, Anthony Devolder (because that's one of the names he has gone under) pretended to help a disabled vet get help for his service dog that was riddled with cancer. And he took the money and ran.  And the dog died. 

He pretended to fundraise for a disabled vet's service dog with cancer. Does it get lower than that? He stole the money. He steals money from people and has admitted it

What's more, there seems to be a plan behind his multiple aliases--he used "Zebrosky" when he wanted to fundraise more from Jewish people. He made himself who he needed to be to perform his best grift. 

What does that mean for him as a congressman?  Well, he's going to serve on the small business committee because of all his obvious small business adjacentness, and on the science committee because of his extensive role in oil and gas development, which is an actual thing he said out loud where the people could hear. 

The FEC and whoever else is looking into this guy right now can not possibly hustle enough, McCarthy's narrow House margin be damned, if it needs to have this guy, is it worth it? He is a veritable fountain of bad news on a damn near daily basis. And to be quite frank, as a part-time Florida man, I suspect he intersects with the ghost campaign rubbish in the Gaetz et als milieux. 

I have questions. Probably more pointed ones than those that Kevin McCarthy failed to follow up on. But if you want clarity on who Santos really is, look at that cancer-ridden service dog who never got the surgery needed. 

That's who he is. An opportunist and a taker. Not anyone who needs to be in office, and someone Kevin McCarthy desperately needs to be in office to keep his bullshit Speakership. And because of all the legal entanglements, this guy is gonna be a goner anyway eventually--I would place a bet. 

I hope Kevin loses his little speakership by attrition, all these petty crooks and insurrectionists getting theirs eventually, because this insurrectionist cabal can't stand for us. And he can't stand for us either if he sticks up for them. 

UPDATE: Did you know our boy did drag? 



He also might have screwn the Russians who were investing in him and I'm not even sure how that's supposed to go. Feels extra-leverage-y.  The relationship is like, fraught

Also his mom wasn't even in the US on 9/11 so it's established he is lying about her being a victim of that.  In any context.

So that wasn't enough for a whole 'nother post, but it's only been one day! So probably we'll be learning new things about our friend George tomorrow. He just gives and gives.
