George Santos is throwing in the towel on his attempt to get re-elected back to Congress, after raising a devastating zero dollars and zero cents in the first quarter of 2024.
The serial fabulist got caught telling so many exaggerations, misrepresentations, and flat-out lies that my attempt in January 2023 to chronicle them barely lasted a day before it was outdated. He was finally expelled from Congress in December 2023 after a damning Ethics Committee report and one of his fellow Republican congressmen accused Santos of defrauding him – and even his mother.
A special election in February for Santos’ replacement in NY-3 was won by Democrat Tom Suozzi, but Santos couldn’t stay out of the spotlight, crashing the State of the Union address in March, insisting on taking advantage of the floor privileges afforded to former members of Congress, although he was not allowed to take up a prime seat.
I’ll be back…
When the wind howls and you suddenly grow anxious about wind damage - I’ll be back to sell you fraudulent insurance.
When you feel a chill run down your spine walking by a dark alley - I’ll be back to call out in a hoarse voice “Discount Rolexes, Genuine, Guaranteed”
When a pet dies and you find yourself wallowing in grief - I’ll be back to sell you a memorial service and then run off with the money.
I’ll never cease my vigil - when there is fraud, when there is grift, when there is no justice… I’ll be back.
… but like not to prevent it, Imma get paid bitches.
