George Santos’ congressional career explodes

The House Ethics Committee released the long-awaited report on Rep. George Santos’ spending of campaign funds, and its allegations are so salacious and devastating that he’s calling it quits after his current term. Kaput. The (soon-to-be former) New York congressman allegedly used campaign funds on everything from designer clothes and botox to “smaller purchases” on OnlyFans, a website primarily used by sex workers. The House Ethics Committee concluded its report by saying Santos “cannot be trusted.”

The Department of Justice has so far been silent, but the report’s damning details indicate Santos is about to go through some things, especially since one of his former fundraisers pleaded guilty this week to a federal wire fraud charge.
