The Eagle Team practices bird law.
He'll get his own show on Tucker Carlson's new network. Something like those Miss Cleo call-in psychic shows from late night cable in the 90s.
He's going to be El Chapo's neighbor in Colorado.
We are witnessing The Penguin's origin story. Santos real real name is oswald cobblepot
ooh, like a fraudy grifty reboot of "where in the world is carmen sandiego?"
What a disgrace. Expelling someone who survived the bronze age collapse AND the Titanic? That is beyond cruel.
Right? Who will run the next Olympics?
who will give money to developing countries in Micronesia now 😣😣
truly the injustice of our time, smh my head
I’m sure it was Santos who was responsible for the bronze age collapse. That’s why the island he made go “boooom” to make it happen is named Santosrini today! Back then it was called Atsantos!
"The Bronze Age" made me laugh!
His grandparents escaped the Holocaust by being born Catholic and in Brazil. Narrow escape!
🏆
They were lucky 🙏🙏🙏
Galaxy-brain move right there
Technically true xD
I'm so grateful I narrowly escaped the Holocaust by being born 30 years after the war ended, in another continent.
How could they expel the man who saved me and my entire family from a burning building? This is outrageous
Especially when he was the first Chinese woman in the Supreme Court! How shameful!
All by him self!
I am sad that people cheer for the expulsion from congress of the first man on Mars
I'm disheartened to hear about the expulsion of the man who pulled the sword from the stone, and should be the rightful heir to the British throne.
@@Red-ks2cffirst man FROM Mars.
I will never get over that nobody did a basic background check on this guy, and presumably didn't ever, on any candidate before him. My roommate got turned down by DoorDash because he has points on his license. DOORDASH does a better job at vetting people than the US Congress. You can't make this sh*t up.
They did... His own election team encouraged him to withdraw. I guess he figured as long as his lies got him in the door, it would be hard enough to remove him that he might get away with his lies. Gotta keep that Republican majority.
@@noleftturnunstonedSad part is, he probably would've been right, if he hadn't stolen from other Republicans.
That’s theoretically the job of voters and the press.
@@theperfectmix2 said _"[basic background checks are] theoretically the job of voters and the press."_
And that should change. In the early days of the US people had time to talk to candidates and ask them questions, read papers about them...
Today? Hard enough to find time to make dinner between the 3 jobs, much less filter through the drek to research candidates.
@@theperfectmix2 I disagree that it's on the voters. If someone lost someone on 9/11, or in the Holocaust, it's poor taste to say "prove it". Or to actually look it up because the implication is they are lying. Of course the press SHOULD fact check this. And other things like being on Hannah Montana are easy to fact check, but depending on what he claim he did on the show, if he was a background perform may not be listed so it's easy to dismiss.
I’m DISGUSTED they expelled one of our founding fathers.
😂😂😂😂😂
No, no Mark. Santos was one of our founding mothers. Or one of our founding Cross Dressers. Or ... oh what the hell, I don't know what the hell Santos is.
Took me a second to get it 😅.
And the first black Nobel prize winner!
Santos didn't cross the Delaware with Washington to be treated like this!
"He stole puppies from the Amish." That alone should be enough to mark him down in the history of Congress.
I mean that's some Disney villain level shit
@@eedwardgrey2Gravity Falls, Gruncle Stan smuggled pugs (the dogs) across borders.
So yes, it is Disney shit.
You had me at "He stole puppies..."
The Amish aren’t saints. Nobody is. But like all groups there are good and bad. Some animals are very much abused by them. They also run puppy mills. Not trying to defend santos. Hell no. But you have to have accurate information before you judge.
I know the way some Amish treat animals. But it’s true - trash comes in every shape, color, and creed.
I mean thats kinda a good thing the amish downright abuse their dogs
Many politicians are understandably hesitant to punish Santos. Imagine what would happen if there were any kind of precedent for punishing a politician for lying.
Time to change out the entirety of our Legislative and Executive Branches…😳
Imagine if there was some kind of precedent that said a politician committing crimes could be held accountable for their crimes. That'd be f-ing wild.
Funnily enough, almost all of them were republicans
You know what, I just asked in the comments "why did it take him so long to get caught?".
Even if you're joking, I think you actually answered my question.
Let's be honest here, he was only expelled because he defrauded fellow Republicans. Only after they were directly affected did they give a shit about his obvious crimes.
You joke about the founding fathers having Only fans subscriptions, but if Benjamin Franklin was alive in the modern era there's no way that old horn dog wouldn't have multiple subscriptions. He was a true renaissance man.
Subscriptions? Man'd have multiple accounts, with people subscribing to HIM 🤣
Randy, true, but honest. Honor was important.
@@HiddenDarkHM so that's why he's on the $100 dollar bill.
I can't believe they kicked out war hero and Nobel prize winner George Santos
Who never stole puppies from the Amish!
Santos also invented fire!
@@tommieklund267 i heard he died on the cross. then resurrected 3 days later after an earthquake
@@tommieklund267no, he didn’t, it was oxygen.
He discovered the moon too!
Moral of the story: You can do anything you want to the American people, but don’t steal from a fellow Republican. There is supposed to be honor among thieves.
You can reform a thief.
You never trust a liar.
I'm with you, but I'll point out that the real rule is never steal from the rich.
Now the senate must expelled NJ senator Bob Menendez, he has been found guilty in violation of the FARA Act on behalf of acting as a representative for the Egyptian government and accepting a couple hundred thousands of money laundering and brides...Now as a lawyer myself I don't see the Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer doing this at all, he would rather keep a criminal in the senate, continuing to keep Senator Bob Menendez on the committee that are privy to top, secret information while having Egyptian government on speed dial during this processing then give up his one/two seat majority. Say what you will about Republican, but at least they're willing to throw out the trash. Granted thinking about it. If Chuck Schumer does decided to throw Bob Menedez to the street, he would be the first Senator to be thrown out of the Senate, who happened to be a staunch member of the Democrat Party...that would be embarrassing.
Impeachments have always been about making the mistake of messing with the other party. Crossing the line so to say. They have never been about the endless war crimes of every president.
Honestly I think it's homophobia that got in his way
Crying “where’s the due process?!” about Santos getting kicked out of Congress is like saying “whatever happened to free speech?!” when you get ratio’d on Twitter
Ngl I can definitely see either trump or elon making a tweet equivalent to "I have been ratiod on Twitter, the west is in shambles, millions will suffer"
Hot new GOP take that won’t affect their donors AT ALL: “Due process under the law” now prevents employers from laying off or firing anyone who works for them, no matter how badly they behave or perform the job, until they’ve been convicted of a crime.
Due process from the party of "Lock her up!"
Right? Breaking the law isn't even the main problem, HE LIED TO Y'ALL FACES! But oh no, wouldn't want to piss off the New Yorkers who definitely aren't demanding he face consequences 😂 right wing logic is always a treat
If you are talking about the guy shown talking to the press in the video, I think he is a member of Congress? In that case, the Constitution affords him the power to vote however he wishes, and thus he may apply any standards of evidence/process he wishes in making his decision (because the Constitution does not put forth any standard, as explained in the video). I interpreted his remarks as explaining his vote: he was saying that, for him, he requires that the person considered for expulsion receive the same level of due process that a criminal defendant receives. The Constitution does not require this, but nor does it disallow a voting member of Congress from requiring it (as their own personal standard for expulsion cases).
Imagine being such a crooked politician that even Congress is like, "nah, dude."
Can't be too high profile, if the normies find out what politicians really do, there'd be riots.
It isn't that he's crooked, it's that he's so BAD at it.
You're supposed to LAUNDER money from your campaign to your personal account, not directly use your campaign credit card on personal expenses!
The guy that took Egyptian gold is still in the Senate
@@CptJistuceexactly they all do it, he's just so bad at it they have to do Thier jobs
Of everything Santos claimed, it was Spider-Man that convinced me it was all lies. Why would anyone willingly proclaim themselves to be involved with that trainwreck?
wouldn't that make it more believable, since who would lie about that?
@@SteveAkaDarktimes Now there's the 4D Chess thinking.
@@SteveAkaDarktimesnope thats a common liars tactic. Include something thats 'too embarrassing" to lie about.
Santos also claimed to play for the Olympic/pro level volleyball team for Baruch College. He obviously does not play on any such sports team nor attended said college. It's such a bizarrely specific and brazenly niche lie. Why would anyone lie about something so blatantly stupid?
LoL 🤣
George Santos taught me that anything is possible if you lie confidently enough.
Until you get caught
Trump couldn’t get through to you?
keep yer lies believable enough and no one would know.
Edit; also helps if they cant be fact checked.
Santos really thought that he was untouchable and that laws didn't apply to him. The house of cards came tumbling down when he chose to grift and scam actual rich Republicans.
It is the Con in Con-man for a reason.
The Fox News reporter saying, he just can't tell the truth (under hear breath) is one of the best clips of all time.
"Due process under the law, not due process under an Ethics committee" is such a silly line and I appreciate you highlighting it. It's like saying your boss can't fire you without a criminal trial. If they were sending him to jail without a trial, that would be denying him due process under the law. They're not. His trial is next year. The Ethics committee was supposed to determine if he had violated the ethical standards of the House. He was expelled from congress, not sent to jail. I'm so tired of people who know nothing about the law speaking so sanctimoniously about the law.
Same with "innocent until proven guilty" aka the presumption of innocence. It's an absolutely fantastic standard *in the courtroom*, but stans of the accused party try to enforce it on others everywhere- in conversation, on online forums, wherever. If you want to go about life that way, that's your choice- though it's usually a bad faith argument, too many will say an accused sexual predator is 'innocent until proven guilty' but imply that their accusers are 'lying sluts' who are guilty of perjury, slander or libel by accusing him- but it's not a universal standard by any means.
The better part is that he got due process under law. The law (Constitution) lets the House decide how it wants to handle such things. It did, and to all accounts it then handled this according to those procedures. Thus due process under law - the process was followed.
The insane part is, 114 voted to let him stay......105 of them republican.
Like, how corrupt can you to go "oh shit, if they kick him out, I might be next, better vote no"
Right? I'd start looking at the Democrats that voted against it (though one already has...a history). Republicans were likely to try to keep him there because they need all the numbers they can get before elections start because they aren't likely to keep the house then.
Not siding with anyone, but voting against ousting an opponent with a clear open and shut case of fraud...isn't the best of optics, while voting to keep someone from your side regardless of...issues (especially in the post Trump-era GOP party) is...normal.
There's probably a colder calculus being played re: number of republican seats in the house and the impact voting to let him stay has on their re-election.
Thats alotta assumptions?
I’m not mad. They revealed themselves
It's more to keep him on as long as possible. He wasn't going to win a reelection campaign without serious help and likely he would be convicted. So they kept him in as long as they could when they already have more members of the house retiring/resigning throwing their shrinking majority into jeopardy.
McCarthy will not seek reelection and will resign at the end of the year, with I think 1-2 more following suit.
As a fellow Brazilian, it's important to note that Santos' first language is Portuguese, not Spanish. Instead of saying 'adiós', it would be more accurate to use 'adeus', or even better, 'tchau'.
I concur!
I would say exactly the same thing
Are we sure he's even Brazilian after all this?
As a fellow Brazilian, I don't give AF about this guy
@@mr_fuji_mintsmr_fuji_mints9873 I really despise the guy. But I kind of feel bad about Americans’ lack of general knowledge - it’s very embarrassing
For the first 30 seconds I was like..."that sounds fake, but I don't know enough about US politicians to dispute it". Glad to see my instincts are right
So was I and I live here. I was ready to just go "Oh? Okay wow."
How could they treat one of the men who raised the flag on Iwo Jima this way?! Has this nation taken leave of its senses?!
I can't believe George Santos is taking credit for the accomplishments of Tommy Tallarico, the first American and inventor of honesty
Can't wait for the James Somerton video about this.
I bet his mother is very proud
@@Lunascapedshe died in pine 11, she was the fox news Xmas tree 🌲
Lmfao
OOF.mp3
Don't forget he was also the first astronaut on Mars, the youngest remaining Beatle (the only one born after they broke up) and he both organised and competed in the Rio Olympics, winning 12 gold medals. Of course, he's still not the biggest liar elected to the current Congress, nor the most corrupt- he's just the most transparently corrupt liar.
*AND 8 MONTHS PREGNANT!*
i think he might be the biggest liar in terms of stupid shit to lie about. im sure others all lie just as much, but its all stuff youd expect from politicians, like money and shit. the things he lied about were just truly baffling
@@archstanton5973 Who's the father? Lindsey Graham?
The liar least skilled at lying for sure, and not for lack of practise.
Yeah, since He came Back from mars, His radiation Level was so high, everybody could directly See, that He was lying. Its much more difficult to See the other corruption ones. But It says a Lot, that He Chose the Republican Party.
It's horrific that they expelled the last surviving veteran of the Spanish-American War.
Those that voted against it due to no "due process"... You're not voting for him to go to jail. You're voting to fire him. If you steal something at any job you get fired. The double standards for politicians needs to stop
"He stole puppies from the Amish" is one of the sentences of all time, I'm gonna be thinking about that one for a couple seconds.
The mental images are hilarious....poor puppies!!
He also stole the money that was crowdfunded to save a veteran's dying dog's life. Screw that man.
That one sound bite keeps popping into my head randomly and it drives me crazy because I can never seem to remember where it came from but here I am again, going to be forever plagued by it
Thank you for your brief service, Mr. Tallarico. Your mother must be so proud.
Perfect timing, this comment came right after I watched a video about tallarico and all his bs haha
I'm so glad someone else made the comment, now I don't have to.
Uh I mean, this is my comment now. I wrote this.
@@artuno1207Your mother must be very proud.
That's a man you can safely leave alone near your decorative waterfall
I can't believe they did this to the first American to work on Sonic the Hedgehog 😔
If this whole lawyer thing doesn’t work out for you, your hyper dry delivery is comedy gold.
Please never stop making these.
Check out Patrick Boyle and suckerpinch if you haven't already.
I can't believe people are treating someone as great as George Santos like this. The man is the epitome of greatness and honor. He invented insulin. He pioneered a breakthrough open heart surgery technique. His work in physics was tremendous in helping find the Higgs-Boson particle. Yet, despite all these great achievements he doesn't brag about them. We should all be inspired by him. You should all be ashamed of yourselves.
It's a shame really... a war hero, a Holocaust survivor, the heir to the English throne, the guy that took Angelina Jolie's virginity AND discovered DNA, and they throw him out like that. They're lucky he wasn't in a bad mood, because he's also a black belt in multiple martial arts and the most decorated SEAL Team 6 veteran ever.
He's still adamantly holding out on disclosing his combination cure for AIDS and cancer, however.
@@guydreamr yeah but to be fair the world kinda asked for it, at this point our only hope is that Santos won't use his direct line to God to bring about the apocalypse.
@@tommythecat4961 He also has Satan in his back pocket, so double whammy. ⚡😈
Let's not forget his hot hot girlfriend, you never met her, she goes to another school, in Canada.
You confused him with Steven Segal
Never has an astronaut from the original Apollo crew been treated so unfairly. Why is Hunter Biden doing this to him?
Right? I can't believe this is happening to the man who hand wove the core rope memory modules for all the cyber trucks.
First Apollo crew? Hunter Biden probably hates burn victims.
😂😂😂😂😂
Apollo crew? Santos has been an astronaut at least since the Incas carved his likeness in the Nazca lines.
When you said he was 25 I almost had a crisis that I was older than him; but he’s actually 35. I still have time to both get in and thrown out of politics
You forgot that Santos was also the inventor of the light bulb and the first Emperor of Rome!
I hate the argument that they need to wait for a criminal conviction. This is the same as an employer firing someone for lying on their resume. Santos wasn't put in prison, he simply lost his job. That doesn't require a criminal conviction.
Or for defrauding their colleagues. Like you don't need a conviction to fire someone for theft
There's pros and cons. You're right, they don't have to wait. However, this may be another one of those customary rules that once breached will result in members trying to vote out other members for no real reason. Kinda like Impeachment.
Exactly . If i voted for him , id be pissed. I dont know who this man is . With the lies hes told i dont even a real person or a figment of my imagination.
@@jakeaurod Keep in mind 2/3s majority is a hard bar to hit. That's why presidents can be Impeached, but aren't removed. 50%+1 in the House, 2/3s in the Senate.
"It's illegal for you to ask me that" energy
I really appreciate that Republican from NY cited the fact Santos wasn’t rich among the reasons for his expulsion.
It was far less about him being rich and more about the sheer quantities of fibbery going on. Although it is funny considering most of this district is North Shore Long Island, one of the richest places in the country (I live in one of the less wealthy places in this district. Shame on us for electing him)
@@XchampionXFTWTrue, but it's also the case that that congressman accidentally told the truth - that you gotta be rich to be a GOP representative...
I mean... it's very on brand
@@cv990a4 well i mean you have to have wealth to a be rep of any kind these days
@@cv990a4Almost nobody gets to Congress being less than wealthy, and if they do that quickly changes. That applies equally for both sides of the political spectrum. Some of the richest people in this country are very prominent figures on the left, just the same as the right.
We as a society have sunk to new lows when we elect the likes of Santos, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, Lauren Boebert, Madison Cawthorn, Bob Menendez, Clay Higgins, Ron Johnson, Gym Jordan, Andy Biggs, Paul Gosar, and Ted Cruz to represent us in Congress .
Don't forget Mike Lee.
They all committed crimes
If American Dad ever gets to the George Santos thing, I really hope they make him just Roger in another costume. The set up is right there.
At least he'll have his career as a world class Formula One driver, international superspy and genius inventor to fall back on.
It wouldn`t surprise me if he manages to lie his way into something else. Let´s hope he doesn´t claim to be the greatest surgeon of all time and starts at a children`s hospital.
He invented the emoji! The ampersand! Chia pets!
Remember when he raced along Aitor Sena??
This is a shameful way to treat the guy who defeated Voldemort.
They literaly saved the earth
3:25 "...hopefully soon will find out the naked truth, expose every detail and laid bare the stark reality..." great writing and deadpan delivery. 🙂
"Find out the Naked truth, expose every detail, and lay bare the stark reality." Bravo, Sir, Bravo!
George Santos is one wand away from being Gilderoy Lockhart.
His smile isn't nearly as good, though.
and just like lockhart he stupidified himself.
at least Gilderoy was good at some spells
Don't forget, people believed Lockhart because he was attractive. Santos doesn't even have that.
He doesn't have anywhere hear the same amount of charm or charisma.... though maybe that was all just spells too
I know the graphic at 5:43 is supposed to be a cheeky nod to Benjamin "absolute freak" Franklin but I can't unthink of the utter joy on Franklin's face were he to learn of the existence of onlyfans. I'm trying very hard not to bust a gut at work; kudos to the editing team for this gem.
Benjamin Franklin would not only be a subscriber, he might have his own OnlyFans.
I thought it was strange that House Republicans would expel one of their own, but you said something, that I have not heard before, and it explains everything. He stole money from them. They didn't care about anything until they were the victims and then he almost immediately got the boot.
“Hopefully we’ll find out the naked truth, expose every detail, and lay bare the stark reality”
I see what you did there…
The Republicans weren't mad Santos stole from their families. They are only mad he stole from them.
well that and costing them a seat on their razor thin majority
I agree with you here
And remember over ONE HUNDRED republicans voted to KEEP him in office.
Republicans: Party over country. Power over everything else.
And that is the real reason he was expelled
Now the senate must expelled NJ senator Bob Menendez, he has been found guilty in violation of the FARA Act on behalf of acting as a representative for the Egyptian government and accepting a couple hundred thousands of money laundering and brides...Now as a lawyer myself I don't see the Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer doing this at all, he would rather keep a criminal in the senate, continuing to keep Senator Bob Menendez on the committee that are privy to top, secret information while having Egyptian government on speed dial during this processing then give up his one/two seat majority.

I don't want it public who Santos is an OnlyFan of. I have to assume they'll get all sorts of horrible harassment they don't deserve.
I am surprised he didn't have a Grindr account. Strikes me as the bottom guy.
Thank you for being the ONE person with a good take on this subject. Can we all please listen to this person PLEASE?
"We don't know for sure what he purchased on OnlyFans, but hopefully soon we'll find out the naked truth, expose every truth, and lay bare the stark reality"
I love it.
The production of LE videos is second to none on yt. The format, graphics, dialogue, background, and even the ad-reads, are so concise and clear.
How Devin managed to keep a straight face with that string of OnlyFans puns I'll never know
Multiple takes until it stopped being as funny, were I to guess.
Recording way too many times, possibly stitching together segments from half a dozen takes
Lawyer, therefore he'll be well versed in talking nonsense with a straight face...
I love that the entirety of government is just a revolving door of HR nightmares
It was great of him to be executive producer on this video. How he found the time to produce, write and edit all while being dismissed from Congress still impresses me.
This channel is out of control good. The writing is spot on and not a wasted word. This is how breakdown channels should be.
He writes scripts just like santos does for his awarded broadway plays.
you forgot to mention he was the first American to ever work on the Sonic the Hedgehog series
I'm sure his mother is very proud of him.
When I get jokes like this, I have to wonder if I’ve gotten too deep into YT lore lol.
Let's face it, he invented the electron, not discovered it, he left that to mere mortals as he didn't want to take all the credit, but invented it during a sabbatical he took while he worked as God's manager.
@@nchalt the point of no return man, we all chronically online together
I makes sense seens the great shape he is in and how fast he runs😊
Somebody school Byron Donalds that the "due process" Santos is entitled to is in the justice system (innocent until proven guilty, jury trial by his peers, right to an attorney if he cannot afford one, etc) before the state takes away his freedom. He got PLENTY of due process within the House of Reps (unlimited chances to explain himself on the floor, a review by the Ethics Committee, etc) before his colleagues voted to expel him. 2 different worlds, 2 different standards of due process, for 2 very different punishments.
Byron 'fake evidence' Donalds absulutely knows, he just says whatever hoping his audience doesn't
Given that the person voicing support for him is from his own party I take whatever they say with a no fks given PoV but also think given all the lies Santos has been caught on this other politician should think real hard about preserving his own job in congress before doing that again.
yeah i was pretty confused someone would step out and say something that feels like a pretty basic misunderstanding of how i was taught the government works. he has a court hearing scheduled, it's not like getting expelled from congress means he's arrested. it just means he's unemployed.
imo it would probably be quite the overstepping of power if the court got to both decide if he was expelled and if he went to jail.
Exactly!
Just curious, why is it not illegal to lie to the public? Like I get if the government needs to keep certain information classified, but why are politicians allowed to be compulsive liars?
Cause then republicans would be out of a job
You’re a great member of the Devin continuum, humor and fashion is on point.

Because they're our betters and the government is built on the assumption that the population is about as smart as an 18th century average Joe.
The whole point of the Electoral College is that we the people are too dumb to make the final call. We don't live in a democracy, we have a constitutional republic, where we only vote for the people who vote for the people.
Is lying a crime?
Freedom of speech. Now that doesn't mean freedom from the consequences of that speech as Santos, the inventor of lego bricks, has found out.
@@carolbaker2773 freedom from consequence is exactly what many want
@@jakeaurod Yes, sometimes it is, but only for the rubes.
Point of note: stealing puppies from the Amish is NOT a bad thing. I guarantee that was an amish puppy mill where dogs are kept in cramped filthy abusive conditions, in metal cages stacked outside in all weather, and where unwanted litters and no breeding dogs are shot or drowned, where probably the adult dogs' vocal cords are cut to keep down on the noise probably by a non-vet, and all of this is legal in PA and OH.
A few months ago I saw this rescue documented the conditions, and offered to take the dogs that the owners were getting ready to kill (some that were 8 months to a year old) and even though the bastards were going to shoot these dogs anyways, they still made the rescue PAY for the pups instead of just giving them up; and apparently it's like that with a lot of other places the rescue went to. They'd rather kill puppies than let them go freely to a good home.
So stealing puppies might be the only good thing Santos even if his intent was probably dickish af.
You forgot his amazing but short career as Kitara Ravache, a famous drag queen from Brasil who often never paid for clothes, wigs and acessories during her brief start and end.
Oh, that's why. You betcha he wouldn't have been expelled if it hadn't hit other congressmembers' wallets.
And yet far too many of them still voted to keep him in. I wanna know what he's got on them. It's gotta be really good stuff...
@kme They wanted to keep their 5 seat majority. None of the leadership voted to expell.
Every single one of the representatives who voted to allow him to stay should immediately be investigated.
That’s the problem they vote for their party not for what’s right
I mean some Dems did too…sooo
So should every single representative that voted to kick him out. All politicians should be held to the utmost scrutiny all the time, not just when they slip up and get seen doing something shady.
And all the children of every representatives. After all, they might take drugs or might have worked for a company that does business with someone who knows someone whose second cousin visited Europe, which is close to eastern Europe, where Ukraine is.
they should be investigated too, you got a problem with that? @@davidradtke160
His Cameos are priceless, especially the one where he went "YIFF YIFF YIFF!" to a furry.
8:05: I love how one of Nick Lalota's arguments is that George Santos is far from rich. He is admitting that being rich is something the Republican party and that Republican voters expect their politicians to be.
Also, 105 Republicans voted not to expel George Santos, some under the excuse that he hadn't been convicted in a court of law yet despite the fact that not only is that not a requirement for impeachment or expulsion, but the Republican party regularly votes to impeach Democrat presidents based only on the fact that they don't like them (like the repeated votes to impeach President Barrack Obama or the ONGOING IMPEACHMENT PROCESS against President Biden despite the fact that Biden has yet to be even accused of committing any crimes himself yet. EVERY HOUSE SINGLE REPUBLICAN voted to proceed with impeachment proceedings.
One rule for Republicans, another for anyone else.
Of ALL the Broadway shows to lie about producing why in the world would he pick the one that was almost never brought to stage because it's production was fraught with disaster? That's like lying and saying you were the architect that designed the 1940s Tacoma Narrows Bridge.
hey, harmonic resonance simply wasn't understood when Tacoma Narrows was built--its failing was what led to it being studied. That's not anyone being "at fault," nobody knew better.
completely different XD
and yet somehow still on brand
I think he tried to do a variation of the trick from The Producers.
Because he's not into Broadway in the slightest and only knew it because it was always in the news for like a good year long stretch. He simply claimed the only play he knew.
@@someguy1ification Whether or not anyone could be said to be at fault, it's not something you'd brag about, and definitely not something you'd lie about, which is the point.
According to Byron Donalds, Santos needs to be tried on a criminal court first. According to most of the GOP, you can't criminally charge a sitting politician.
By Republican logic, getting into office puts you above the law. I think Clarence Thomas would agree 🙄
It’s almost as if they’re not the party of law and order and don’t believe society should run as a democracy.
I thought you could only not criminally charge the president?
@@shadeburst except Hunter has been indicted. His father could issue a blanket pardon, but he's letting the system play out.
I find it laughable that you bring up the Bidens when the GOP decided not to question Hunter in an open hearing. They would have gotten whatever details they could have wanted, but opted not to question him. I wonder what the right is so scared of the public hearing. What you're afraid of the public hearing
Correct.
i mean how many undemocratic laws do the US got?
And why veto power and life time judges? All these things subvert freedom and neutrality...
Actually love the Ground News analysis being included even tho it is part of a sponsor segment
My experience is that NASA engineers... might not be your best news analysts.
I appreciate you and thank you for making content.
I work in Risk at a bank. I know they can't disclose them, but I would love to read the SARs that were files against Santos.
To be fair, most SARs are stale reading. I used to write them up, and most of the time it's loan fraud or front businesses funnelling cash to an unknown third party.
As long as the SAR is submitted, that's the legal obligation by the financial institution met.

This is a great video, thank you for sharing it!
3:18 him saying “and i was oblivious to the whole concept” smiling widely and barely holding back his laughter sounds like a small child trying to lie for the first time. 😂
like, why is it so funny that you were oblivious to the concept and how is that an answer to the question of “what did you think of it?”
Sad it took this long for Congress to get rid of someone who is clearly not good for this country
It's impressive that they ejected him at all tbh.
I still suspect they only reason they did is because towards the end he broke Reagan's Eleventh Commandment, "Never speak ill of a fellow Republican." They tolerated and defended everything else he did.
@JohnBrown-pq9tj I guess that commandment doesn't apply to Trump
@@memecity9849 Nothing does.
@@JohnBrown-pq9tjnah, Rep. Lalota told the actual reason: "He's far from rich" 8:05
Republicans can't have something like that near them.
Finally a politician being held accountable for their actions!
He’s making more on tik tok then he has as a politician. Pretty successful imo
@@NeonJ1 you can't make money on tiktok.
If he is saying he's making money he's probably just stealing money and using tiktok to launder it.
@@Myder_Dragon Um yeah you can make money on tik tok in the U.S. but his cameos also sell for 500+ and he’s been sold out for days.

I love how you cover things. Have you heard about the Dolton, Illinois Mayor, Tiffany A Henyard and the scandals surrounding her?
Looooveee the additional layer added to this video (explaining and reporting on the media biases).
That's an ad, and both times he's shown a sample it is both inadequate and slanted. AI for the lazy.
We should remake Forest Gump with George Santos. Not updated for modern day, though. It's the exact same events, but presented as Santos's life events
Rep. Donalds (R, obvs) deliberately misunderstands the separation between elected officials and what applies to due process. But hey, misunderstanding the Constitution to avoid earned consequences is the entire party's MO.
That red/blue symbolism in the thumbnail isn't lost on me. Well done.
Hey, thanks for the great Content!! Can you do a video about the appeals process and why the ability to ask for a new judgment over and over and over is built into the system? When is someone actually, finally guilty of the crime they’ve been found guilty of?
When I was abducted by aliens, George Santos rode in on a unicorn and saved me. We eventually got married. We now have 3 beautiful children: one is a unicorn (from his first marriage), and two are manbearpigs. I love that man and nothing you can say will change how I feel.
I wish the both of you much happiness in your lovely villa.
I congratulate you on your marriage to the first Chinese woman to ever sit on the United States Supreme Court, it must be an honor.
Due process only applies to the justice system. Being expelled isn't part of that. It's like how an employee gets fired for criminal behavior outside of work. The justice system will give him due process for the crime and the employer can fire him because his behavior doesn't represent their values or public image. An employer can fire you for misconduct or poor behavior. That's what happened to Santos. He was fired, not convicted. The conviction is still coming.
For what i understand the isu is that it set a precedent. If the congress can by a majority vote expell a member of congress, there is no opposition possible. It is not here yet, but like any unset boundaries, we will not realize we'v crossed it until it's to late
@@comlitbeta7532 The House needs a two thirds majority to expel a sitting member, something that isn't going to happen without a significant amount of cooperation from both parties
@@screamingcactus1753 You mean like how they'll drop the 'opposing parties' act and come together 420+ to 1 when their overseas owners demand their fealty be shown?
Holy crap, the editing of that intro absolutely killed me! 😂🤣 too funny
I heard he was born on Mount Paektu, and he scored 18 holes in one the first and only time he golfed.
He still lost that game to Kim Jong Un, though.
I love that it’s ’Scowl Owl, LegalEagle’ because he was the scowl owl from the legal eagle, which means Devin is technically always being ‘Legal Eagle, legaleagle’ owned by company ‘LegalEagle’ on the channel @legaleagle. I knew the eagle was on the comeback from endangered, but this is getting out of hand when taken silly.
George Santos was a prime example of a person who skates by without actually ever knowing how to do anything
Or though guys that say they know karate but they just start throwing punches and kicks
@@lealmelisa dont call me out like that bro 🥋
I'm still convinced that George Santos was just one of Nelson Franklin's roles.
It's like a prison telling an inmate that their crimes are too bad for them and they have to kick them out of prison 😮
Honestly they probably wouldn't have expelled him if Mike Johnson thought they needed his vote to pass certain things.
But also lawmakers don't really care about what crimes you commit (look at Trump not being held responsible for either impeachment) until you actually do something that impacts the wealthy. Santos stole from the common person, not a word. Santos used money from the wealthy to fund his own lifestyle? That's when they decided to take action against him.
How dare they give the creator of the universe himself the boot. This is outrageous. Scandalous, I tell you.
Having a friend that works in dog shelters, stealing puppies from amish dog breeders is probably one of the most moral things he's ever done as Amish puppy mills are actual hell on earth for dogs.
I knew I recognized him from his lengthy career as a child actor in all my favourite 90's kids shows! Thanks Leagle Eagle now I have something to discuss at this years christmas party.
Little known fact - he played Kevin McCallister.
Yeah along with Keenan Thomson
