- George Santos, the US Congressman accused of money laundering, lying about his past, and stealing campaign funds, to pay for everything from luxury holidays to Botox treatment, has been expelled by the House of Representatives.
An ethics report had found that Congressman George Santos exploited “every aspect” of his role for personal financial profit.
Mr Santos is facing 21 criminal charges.

*George Santos is now a free agent and can sign with either NY Jets or NE Patriots to become the greatest QB to ever played the game*
No. Soon he will become a successful UA-camr. He’s not less skilled than Sammy the bull Gravano after all!!.
The only thing I will miss about George Santos are comments like this LOL
He'll be busy as Donalds new running mate.
aha
Should be going to jail
Giving George Santos jail time is like giving him the best Christmas gift ever. The man is Gay and he has a legal husband.
That is definitely still a possibility
@@mohammedhosein5210 gay people don't dream of being raped in prison...
Politicians and actual legal repercussions are foreign concepts to eachother
The words have lost meaning nowadays, a persistent Christian an d Jewish man is gay as well and no one wonders!!.
meanwhile in the UK parliament there aren't actually any consequences for lining your own pockets...
Under the current incarnation of the Tory party, it's practically a requirement.
But they are more after each other’s cock coz majority are gay men!.
Actually, there are. Go back to that big expenses scandal and follow some of the most egregious ones. Not _enough_ gets done, but there are consequences.
@@y_fam_goeglydthat was pre-boris when the police werent in the pockets of the tories. hell the police were guarding their illegal gatherings
Please, never take your system of government for granted. Ours is absolutely terrible and never holds people accountable. Donald Trump is still a free man, if that isn't an indication of just how corrupt our system is, then I don't know what is.
Santos and t-Rump for Guantanamo bay 2024
Send Trump there immediately, and keep him there forever.
I'll bet Santos would claim to be a Marvel superhero if he thought Disney wouldn't sue him.
Walking in the circus is best suit for him
But I am a Marvel superhero
Now he is really a dropped jaw-ish. 😂😂😂
Imagine if you did this at your job. They would've fired you a long time ago.
Well elected office isn't the same as employment so apple's and oranges.
@@ryanfraser167You're wrong and full of bs. You probably like him.
@@ryanfraser167 exactly that's the problem. They get to do a job. He clearly wasn't
Rishi Sunak is looking for a new Transport Minister for his Cabinet ...
lol
He is fired- ish now I guess.
and he is slow-ish to comprehend that.
He'll be on dancing with the stars in no time, and america will elecate him to the status of loveable scamp. "Aww, that George!"
Or the Masked Singer! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Clarence Thomas next.
You know they just might revoke the medal he received allied with the Jedi during the Clone Wars.
In other word he fit in precisely, perfectly with the rest of the US congress.
he sounds like a tory
Pretty much. Liars calling out the liars.
They are all corrupt in Congress
@kanedNunable Tories are amazing and we make all the money for this country. People like you just live using our tax money.
@@ABanRocks are you one of those that voted for brexit and is costing the country billions each year? 😂
At least he reached one of his dreams: becoming famous at any cost.
Everyone should be happy that a crook was stopped before his bad deeds got worse..BRAVO!!
Joe ia not far away !!!
What about the rest of the republican and demoncrats? They are still lying to the masses daily, what about them?
@@davidlim5You mean trump 😂
He would fit perfectly in the house of Parliament over here they are all dodgy and in it for them self
Taylor swift prego
He should move to the UK and get citizenship! He'd be an amazing Tory politician, would fit right in.
Oh there’s 112 GOP members that voted to keep him … you should take them too please!!
@@algoribbon9992😅😂😂
lmao
A grifter expelled from the right wing party of grifters, is really odd indeed. 🥴
Shouldn't you be whining about Brexit? It's only been 7 years
Good Riddance!!!
He’s the congressional Jussie Smollett
This comment deserves to win 🏆 the Internet 👏👏👏🫡
What's next for America's favorite ex-congressman?
This guy is a perfect American politician..
F I N N A L Y .... expelled ‼jail him ‼he's a crook‼
Pension?? Salary??? Wtf NO
He lost them!
Shame on you
Wonderful news. Now he has time to run his Presidental campaign.
He heard Trump won so he thought he would enter politics to get rich and powerful too.
You are so right it’s scary.
Those who vote for him are clowns
LOL😂
Finally! Santos is free to run as Trump’s running mate. Together, their lying skills will be formidable!
ha ha ha ha ... oh my if that happens
We already have Biden
Accountabilityis needed for all our representations.
He has big dick yes?!❤
George: I don't want Accountability, I'm only Accountant-ish.
Santos even stole money from a veteran whose dog died. That's how low this creep will go.
Liar liar panties on fire 🔥🔥🔥
I am upset, I bought a condo on the moon for only $5000. He told me Donald Trump was going to make him vice president in charge of NASA. I wonder if he's going to give me back my money?
.Germany and Israel signed a missile defense system contract worth approximately €4 billion.
Lie to CONGRESS
Lie to Americans
Still get pensions.
NOOOOOOoooooooo say it ain't so. He should be the face of the republican party, instead of the farce
Glad he's gone. But I fear this type of character is far more common than most people think in politics.
He could have used the money for gym subscription...
hes been a very bad boy & is going to be sent to argentina or the bahamas as punishment
for ever & ever
hahaha
Orange Jesus _Santos 24..for jail I mean..😅😂
Well one thing he will not miss in prison will be being a B. I. T. C. H. He will serve those in need a good wife in prison.
We have one in this country called Boris Johnson
Living the American dream, is he
the American grift you mean.
How similar the British politicians and the American politicians are ...o yes blood brothers arnt they😂😂😂😂
He only wanted to be a congressman for one term - because of the lifetime benefits.
how bad do you have to be for a bunch of criminals to say "you can't sit with us"
Just another lying politician.
😂😂😂... THAT'S ANOTHER TRUMP... THAT NEVER SUCCEED.
Amei a noticia. Mas vocês precisam procurar saber a veracidade da história de seus politicos antes dele ser um candidato. Não entendo como o partido politico não viu isso.
o'tima observação👍
Own up who’s looking for Santos on Only Fans? 😅
This guy tried hard to get trump on his side to no avail
So anyone, any crook can get into Congress?? And stay there for that long 😅
plenty of evidence of that.
What new , they are all at it , have been for years.
What about Nancy and her insider trading
What took them THAT long to finally do it?😡
Politics, the Republicans didn't want to potentially lose a seat in a swing district, and they care more about power than integrity.
If you are going to lie - be a billionaire, or at least lie about being a billionaire.
Why not say he is a Republican.
This joker should have been ejected long ago.
a grifter just like his boss T.
He will be popular in prison.
This proves america isn't a liberal democracy but a fascists country 😂
How?
@@davedoogan-e8odeep pockets
Why it took so long?
*sounds like Biden*
They've obviously voted him out as a sacrifice to keep the light from their own wrongdoings. Most politicians around the world behave the same way. How else are they meant to survive on such measly government wages that 95% of the world can only dream about.
Free Palestine
😂🎉🎉🎉🎉
Poor chicken. ...roasted ... the guy called king still having tea with bush and colleagues . Trumpet...still on the rat race .. Bin Bin ....bep..bep... 🐒
At least for the first time in George Santos life, he can said that he really was in Congress, but got kick out.
I wouldnt say “Gripped”. Lol That’s a bit of an exaggeration. 😂
It's more like a slow motion train wreck.
@@Special_Agent_NSB for real 🤣😅🤣
What people often forget about George Santos is that hes actually Jada Smith
Pelosi,Schiff, AOC, Maxine Waters, Talib and Schumer should be next .
How is this unusual in government
They’re usually more careful to cover up their thefts.
Heard through the grapevine that Amazon's AMZP33X will be part of an upcoming major event. Any truth to that?
🇰🇪 😢 This happens daily in my home country 🇰🇪 Kenya and the crooks are voted back in as governors and other political leaders 😢
I'm also an openly gay Jewish, American latino.
Where are my free OnlyFans subscriptions.
So, they expel this crook, good riddance, Why can't they expel Tiny? He's a far bigger crook.
What’s, so different,just ask yourself how did all the politicians suddenly become multi millionaires from nothing.
The person or agency responsible for conducting his background check should be held responsible as well. How does this even happen?
He'd still be there if he'd won the House vote. All the Republican leaders voted against expelling him. How ridiculous. By the people for the people my arse.
Heard a rumor that Amazon's AMZP33X is going to be integrated into everyday tech. Can anyone confirm?
Money laundering? lying during his campaign? Turncoating so fluidly? Isn't that a classical politician?
By George
Couldn't he have just played it Cool for a Year or 2 after all those who got Rid of Him did so because George was drawing attention to the whole House.
Still I'm sure his Management Team can get a Good Book Deal with a good down Payment .
And don't forget Hollywood & a Comedy about George's Days in Washington.
Things are never as Bad as they seem.
CHIN UP GEORGE
Congress suddenly feels more honest, better looking, and about 400 pounds lighter. hahaha
Netyahoo is facing corruption charges, would not be surprised if he's in bed with hamas,
bbc chose right candidate for president but i am better than best
sorry - amazing how that many lies did not catch up with him sooner....oops Trump still going !!!
Will he lose his Medal of Honour that he got in WWII?
👏 👏 👏
He could always join the Tory party, he's already proven he's got what it takes.
this cant be right, lieing is normal, pervasive, expected within the political sphere. He must have done something to someone importants wife, otherwise his lieing would be seen as a plus. Perhaps he was too liberal in his views for the US conservative party, maybe he thought that humans were responsible for global warming, or worse he didnt believe the bible to be the literal truth.....
FYI Mr Sunak this is not a blueprint for how far you and your government can push it in the UK.
I DON'T KNOW IF ANYBODY IS PARTICULARLY WORRIED ABOUT IT BUT I'VE DELETED MY BBC NEWS APP OFF MY PHONE AND IPAD BUT IT'S BECOME COMPLETELY USELESS. THE ONLY OPTIONS ON IT NOW ARE READ WHAT WE GIVE YOU, OR NOT.
I dont like this guy but to be able to kick this elected representative out of parliament is undemocratic. Lets vote him out legally in November
Er are you sure that is not Brandon you are reporting? 86 million votes.....
The next David Conron- PoyEster McVile ??
Didnt he also claim to be 43% Nigerian and a famous actress? Or am i getting mixed up?
The question is it just because his jews or more of how they never did a proper background check
He successfully achieved the dream lined his pockets by selling bullshit
Send him across the pond. The Conservative Party want him as prime minister.
What does it say about the more than 100 Republicans who voted to keep him ?
We had best focus our entire attention on, and do something about this one person who has abused the system.
It's definitely not an indication of an issue with our culture values or a system designed to best benefit the few.
Bub-bye George.
Santos is one result of trump both lie like a rug.
Love how the BBC dont mention hes a democrat but the moment its a republican make sure to get that word in a couple times!
He’s not a democrat
Ya well you have Harry to contend with….same ball of crap
So you cant use campaign funds for Onlyfans who knew 🤣
