Santos is the perfect poster-child for the Republican party.
I think he looks like a better republican when he wears that red drag queen dress.
Completely true!
Are you serious? Did you forget about Don the Con.? 🤣😅

@Morbidly Oppressed You would have to multiply that by a few 100 to come close to the 30573 verified public lies Don the Con told while in office. Your point?
What is upsetting to me about this situation is George Santos appears to be loving the attention, even if it’s negative. It’s all working out for him
It's happened in our past also.
Some infamous serial killers have
shown very similar behavior patterns.
Could be problematic ...
You are spot on! The attention is what he craves… at any cost. This is a morally bankrupt person and we should all take this seriously instead of viewing it as entertainment. The future of this young democracy seems murky at best😢
he knows he's bulletproof, as long as his political party needs his vote.
Bad news views are better than no news viewed to them
Just one more example of mental illness running rampant in the White House in both parties! It's time to get rid of Republicans and Democrats!!!!!
And despite knowing all this, McCarthy and the house republicans have given Santos/Devolder behaviour two committee seats. They publicly bemoan his behaviour, yet reward it.
Because they really don't care,I.hope he steals all there cellphones and scarves
After McCarthy said he WOULD NOT!!
@@mogamadgreyson143 he is going to steal much more than that
Their words and their actions are not congruent corruption corruption corruption
When lawbreakers become lawmakers 😂🤣
Well said brother.
Wolf in sheep clothing was never more true than in describing todays Republican Party. Ex republican
EXACTLY, the Republican party GOP has become a Sanctuary city for LYING CRIMINALS & FRAUDS 🙄
Have three other Republicans who broke laws Lauren Boebert has rapsheet, Byron Donald's bribery in bank fraud case. going back Darrell Issa insurance fraud accusation and car theft with his brother, a business burned down under mysterious circumstances. .
He told his friend if he only serves one term he’ll be set for life with the pension and the health coverage; and who pays for this? We do.
Is that his real friend, or an imaginary one? 🙄
I'm glad this is being brought up and focused on.
A keenly focused social media strategy, paired with pristine journalistic integrity, that boosts the signal of important stories like this is absolutely needed now. The security of the nation is too important to continue otherwise.
Sorry but local news sucks
@@The_Essential_Review I agree! My take on it is that there are trustworthy journalists out there but the local news stations either aren't hiring them or they're holding them back with asinine assignments.
Let this never happen again! We can do better!
Hector -- the country can indeed do better. The Republican Party, I fear, can do little better than George Santos.
They're keeping George Santos. He is what represents the current republican party and their supporters.
George Santos is exactly what McCarthy needed!
Agree,local news is so important.Not sure what the solution is due to the conglomerates buying up all news sources.
Stop watching the mainstream news check into Russell Brand. Kim that had to leave "The Hill" I can't remember her last name. There are several others that just follow the money and tell the truth
this thing about not investagating a candidate during an election has got to change
It's going to get worse. Most people get most of their news from RUclips and social media, where anyone can post anything with near impunity.
Who is paying him the big bucks to stay in office and keep voting for anything Kevin wants?
You are going to blame a newspaper for only having a FB, that is THEIR fault! Ridiculous.
I'm so happy the Republican Party is now embracing Drag Queens! That shows some progress!
I think it shows that after decades of poverty wages and increasing responsibilities, we simply dont have the same caliber of journalist that we had just a couple decades ago.
Media corruption is one of the most dangerous things facing humanity currently
Seek medical attention
The problem is the newspaper has no social media presence. It’s like they don’t want to be noticed.
Not every news source especially locally can run news 24/7 like cnn and fox and etc
Not one word about the flood of money and clicks value is playing into this.
Corruption corruption corruption! Despicable and abhorrent
This Scamtos man has no shame!!!!
The fact that republicans are happy to protect Santos tells you all you need to know about honesty within the party. Money and power are the only things that matter to the GOP.
Who gave Santos the money to fund his campaign?
So has he done anything during office? Wonder what his daily activity is? Looking himself up online for 8 hours a day?
This America is broken ....
In all my years I have never seen a man look so desperate up at a lift ,just praying that it comes a lot quicker !!
These reporters hang around the lifts ,like vultures on a carcass !!
Just love it ,next time have a look at chicken George ,eyes up on the lift floor display !
It's so funny !!
@@shenderson2484 no doubt ,he would lie about too !!
With the stairs ,he would say I was a fireman and not just any fireman, the champion stair climbing five years running ! LOL
What about creating special newspaper only dedicated to investigating potential politician. Or follow on politician accomplishments.
santos enjoys this attention.
In the work world, they put new hires on probation. If the hire is good, hire him, if not... If they had this in 2017...
Couldn't the small paper send the info to the opposition candidate? They shouldn't have to do that but cmon.
Reporter: "Mr. Santos, did you survive an assassination attempt?" Santos: "Yes I did." Reporter: "Do you have any proof?" Santos: "I'm still alive."
An american shame !! On us!! The world is lookimg. Postcard report = F 😪
Even George Santos’s name is a lie on his resume lol
The smaller place have to call the bigger places for in order to get the job done...just the world we live.
Small local newspapers are being closed down through out the world...bought out and stripped. See 🦊
They do have a phone.
Not everyone does
THIS VIDEO ended well. THAT'S the way to bring truth to light AND BEAT the old redandBLUEpedo, especially when the man at the end says "bringing a policy to protect the newsroom" "around Washington than the local community"-- instead of "bringing policy to protect the overachiever or the less popular citizens on the streets, etc etc".
I hate conspiracy theories and those that spread them however I feel something seriously wrong is more deeply hidden here with this Santos situation.
Is he a PREIST also???
When your wealthy and entitled. You don’t lose your job.
Kinda ignore how the supremacy of identity politics played into people ignoring the red flags. Santos played *both sides* perfectly.
SANTOS YOUR NOSE IS GROWING LONGER EVERY TIME YOU OPEN YO MOUTH
And he is getting richer and richer by who ever wants to keep his vote!
(2:18-2:54)
Santos is from the moon. Gop build a wall of some sort already.
I'm dressing up like Santos for Halloween! 🎃 👻
I hope the Republicans that ignore Santos deception aren't parents
there are 3 parties to blame here: 1.) Santos as the fabricator; 2.) Political Party (R) - NOT vetting the candidate and endorsing Santos: 3.) Voters - who voted along party lines - exclusively.
Support NPR!
Keep voting conservative.
Good-bye Persona non grata Santos Devolder Anthony George whatever!!!
SANTOS: POSTERBOY FOR THE GOP!!
Santos is the skidmark of American politics.
I only wish Santos was the skidmark of American Politics. I fear he is a harbinger of the politics to come.
Excellent! George Santos is the Republican VAMPIRE, Herschel Walker would have been their WEREWOLF! 😆😅🤣😂
Are there any literary awards for imaginary resumes under fiction category?
Well Georgie Porgie get's his 2 years of fame and then he's out never to be elected again! Greeter at Walmart? Dishwasher at Denny's? Prison laundry? Or wacked in the street when he's out walking his french poodle?
Santos has proven how low we've fallen as a country. This guy is as low as you can get. The GOP has encouraged people like him to get into politics. Santos has never earned an honest dollar in his life . The party of Bobert and Green.
Same reason you *network* has been around for a decade but only has 162k total views. Too basic for anyone to care or pay for.
How can you trail and shame Santos? Pamela Harris has a indecent past as illicit affair with the former Mayor of San Francisci for many years yet media her go her ill reputation. The ex mayor even attested in writing such ill repute relation in newspaper and none of media went against this? HOW BIAS!!!
Proof?
Super insulting to Jews and GOPers
Lock him up ! Lock him up ! Lock him up !
The US does not need another Trump !
This guy makes Trump a newbie.
His lies are oozing out of his ears, nose and mouth. Despite that, he still managed to win an election.
It was Kitara Ravashe that changed that paperwork I bet? Don't be disingenuous shouldn't even come from this fraudster in the first place. He is calling the media liars? Really? The pair on this guy, he has no shame in his game. If this guy/lady, what ever he is does not end up behind bars for his finance paperwork then our justice system is truly broken, like I think many of us already know it is.
Journalism is dead. Been replaced with self interest podcasters and talking heads who spout corporate and CEO’s personal agendas.
Special counsel jacksmith links Donald Trump to Epstein's little black book
Because it's a bigger news story if he gets in Congress then it's a big story every day for two years.....for the media that equals $$$$
Sadly this is true.
Chat GPT did it
Who is Santos' husband?
The Orange clown
poor guy
Can you let him know to walk home at 9 plz
What did this teacher do or say to make this kid want to shot her?😮
Maybe the kid confused her with you.
That is a ridiculous question. How was that child raised and sneak a gun out of the house? Why does a 6-year-old know how to shoot a gun?
We want George or whoever he is???
For speaker of the house!
GQP at it's best.
Pinocchio gorge santos, luis montiel garcia, fernadando dosantos rios 😄😄😄😄🤣🤣🤣
George Santos landed on the moon.
Classic Republican and a perfect reflection of the morals of the average right-wing voter
I am a good liar....better than Santos and almost the same level as trump. I think I have 100% chance to become a congressman and 99% to be the next president of the USA. I am on my way to the American Embassy now to get the application form to migrate there. My name is Gorgeous Santono Landrover.
