If he’s smart (and he’s not) he takes the plea deal / pleads guilty and avoids the trial

 

I wouldn’t offer a plea deal.  We need to make an example out of people that are this brazen about being pathological liars.

This article is great. Santos may be the dumbest SOB in a congress that Tommy Tuberville And Lauren Boebert are members of.

Let’s just create a tier and not waste any time trying to rank them.

We're going to learn just how crazy Santos is with this case. Almost any reasonable person, or their lawyer, would understand that the it's over. Time to seek a deal including resigning from Congress. Santos looks to come from the school that you never admit fault, guilt or losses. He could be one of those defendants that drags out a case for 5+ years.  The good news is that I'm fairly certain his district will not send him back to Congress even before this indictment.

How 2023 simulation is it that even the ‘’mental health!” Far right think; “yeah santos is the kind of sick, he shouldn’t be buying any firearms in case he were to do something drastic to himself or others.  But we’d like him to vote on some firearms bills before he’s removed from office.”

What, people with mental health issues don't have constitutional rights?

Oh, so now you care where a president was born? I don't remember you complaining about Obama being born in Kenya. Checkmate, libtard.

And don't come back with that "Obama was born in Hawaii bullshit." Hawaii or Kenya doesn't matter, he was born overseas so he can't be president.

Lordy, there are tapes

 

 

He justified taking unemployment benefits because his annual comp had dropped from 400k to 55k, so why shouldn’t the govt help him with unemployment funds. he shouldn’t be expected to get by on 55k.

He’s not nuts for thinking about it. His party has established that being a psychotic pathological liar is a big plus for a candidate.

This will be a good test. If he can get the morons to pay his legal fees the way they do for lord Donny “to own the libs” he very well could be Oresident Kitara the First.

This is an amazing simulation.  Gay Latino Republican caught committing financial fraud and can't fundraise for the party.  Dennis Hastert would have him removed from office, taken out back, and have the shit beat out of him.  But McCarthy and GOP leadership are like, "Meh, let's see what happens.  We got a narrow margin and he makes some good points."

Hastert would have molested his little brother for good measure.

The Santos campaign finally has a treasurer.  Meet George Santos, everyone:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/05/19/santos-campaign-treasurer/

 

Quote

Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.), who was charged earlier this month with a host of financial crimes, is now serving as the treasurer for his own campaign and several affiliated committees, according to filings made Friday by the committees with the Federal Election Commission.

 

 

Quote

The congressman’s unusual move to become his own campaign treasurer followed his indictment on 13 counts of financial crimes last week by federal prosecutors in New York. His colleagues also referred a resolution to the House Ethics Committee this week to expel him from Congress. Santos, 34, has vowed not to resign, maintaining that he will prove his innocence and seek reelection next year.

The embattled congressman cycled through numerous treasurers in recent months as his campaign’s finances came under scrutiny, at one point listing someone who later denied having agreed to take the role. The treasurer identified on his filings until Friday’s amendments, Andrew Olson, did not respond to a request for comment.

 

Quote

The change was a reminder of Santos’s growing isolation. It came as the law firm assisting the New York congressman with matters before the FEC and the House Ethics Committee dropped him as a client, according to people familiar with the situation, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the matter’s sensitivity. During the last election cycle, his main campaign committee paid that firm, Dickinson Wright, about $40,000 for consulting and compliance services, according to filings.

A Dickinson Wright spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Santos did not respond to a text message seeking comment. The congressman’s communications director resigned this week.

 

Spoiler

People familiar with the situation said they were unsure how Santos would handle matters before the FEC or House Ethics without counsel. He has a separate attorney representing him in the federal criminal case in the Eastern District of New York, who also did not respond to a request for comment.

Wide-ranging complaints filed by watchdog groups with the FEC earlier this year accused Santos of misrepresenting campaign spending and using campaign resources to cover personal expenses, among other allegations. In January, the Justice Department’s Public Integrity Section asked the FEC to hold off on any enforcement action against Santos, suggesting that prosecutors were examining overlapping issues.

Last week’s indictment accused Santos of misappropriating donor money for his personal gain and lying on personal financial disclosure forms submitted to Congress, among other alleged misdeeds. Inconsistencies with his campaign’s filings to the FEC did not figure in the charges, though legal experts said prosecutors could level additional allegations as the case proceeds.

Meanwhile, FEC analysts have continued to inquire with his various committees about errors and oversights in filings. Answering those requests will now fall to Santos as treasurer.

Is that legal ?

Nope, not even remotely.   Add it to the superseding indictment.  It's against FEC rules and regs, and is a crime, though grace period for replacing a treasurer is allowed.  Then again, if you are replacing your fraudulently created non existent treasurer I'm thinking that might be a felony level problem.   This guy is a comedic gift on a lot of levels, only the seriousness of it tamps down the fun some.
