Incoming Republican Congressman George Santos may have just made up his entire background story about where he went to school, where he worked, where he lived. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-64043010

How did this go unnoticed during the campaign but the incumbent candidate? Anyone close to this situation here in NY?
 
Just shows politics are not getting our best and brightest.

Assuming that the reporting is accurate (not always a given), what moron would fabricate their entire resume, knowing that most of that information is readily available?

What kind of “opposition research” morons didn’t find this out?

Did they know, but failed to disclose because you can’t criticize a protected group?

I say this as the voters of Pennsylvania just elected a moron as U.S. Senator.

This may go even further that he lied about having an animal rescue group and that his family has 13 real estate holdings and there is only one. The NYT has that there is a record he was charged criminally with theft in Brazil and has had two eviction proceedings in NY. He has been accused by the SEC of running a Ponzi scheme. He unbelievably stated that his company lost 4 employees at the Pulse nightclub shooting. This is apparently false as well.

It's possible this guy made up his whole persona. I mean its hysterical and very sad all at the same time. As Jefferson once said, the government you elect is the government you deserve.
 
It would be sad. Even sadder is that his party and his opponent and his party didn't catch it. We could be talking several shades of stupid here.

What happens a lot in these situations, guy makes up the lies when he is a nobody politician, as they move up the chain the resume/lies continue to follow along, by the time you want to run for congress its too late to change the resume.

Still baffles me his opponents didnt check this out, he ran for congress in 2020 also and lost, how people running against him in primaries and general election didn't dive into this further is pretty bad.

I can see if someone fudges a few things, but that’s a lot of stuff to make up on a résumé.

I wonder what the PR firm damage control cost him.

But if he can survive this, it was worth it.
 
And CNN, MSNBC and all the other left outlets are having a field day because he's an R. That's your MSM for you.
You are most likely right that is why these stations CNN, MSNBC , FOX etc have these talking heads that are not reporting the news but giving their worthless opinion. I try to look at every issue on it's own merit and not listen to these over-paid talking head clowns on all these stations . Unlike some people that believe everything Fox, CNN etc. are telling you .

They are all worthless echo chambers.

So the only reason CNN and MSNBC are having a field day with George Santos is because he is an R? Isn't this completely objective to have a field day with George Santos no matter what your political persuasion is? IS this the what we have become? GOP leadership actually knew about this?

It is sad day for America. This man has no right to be sitting in Congress. But if his constituency is not going crazy over this, then so be it. You get what you elect a total fraud. A joke.

You obviously missed the context of my response because you were so intent to rant. Ready, fire, aim…. Lol

Jason Miller of gettr agrees with you
 
If you keep ranting, why bother? Can you stop whining and ranting in the New Year?
Hmm, not a rant nor a whine. Perhaps you should consult a dictionary. You deeming it a rant or a whine does not make it so.

This is a sad day when no one, and I mean no one, did any research on him. Sad day for repubs and sad day for dems. All just so stupid.
