George Santos gives the most George Santos press conference a George Santos can give [1]
['Daily Kos Staff']
Date: 2023-11-30
On Thursday, the House debated whether to expel embattled Rep. George Santos. The New York Republican, who is facing federal charges for campaign fraud, held a press conference shortly before the debate began, and it was the most George Santos press conference a George Santos could have, featuring a lot of wild talking, accusation-throwing, threatening, and cajoling!
In an edited video posted by Keith Boykin, Santos said:
He is amazed that “this House continues to want to push me out.”
Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas is to blame for logistical issues with “the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting.”
He’s going to introduce a motion to expel Rep. Jamaal Bowman for pulling a fire alarm. (He did introduce it.)
He “will be filing a slew of complaints in the coming hours of today and tomorrow.”
Everything that is happening to him is “theater for the cameras. It’s theater for the microphones.”
It is the “second-year anniversary” of his wedding, and he’s going to “enjoy it.”
Nothing he’s wearing was bought with campaign funds.
“The future is endless. I mean, you just never know. You can do whatever you want next, and I'm just going to do whatever I want.”
The House is set to vote on Santos’ fate on Friday.
There has been a ton of coverage in recent weeks over a streak of poor 2024 polling for Democrats and Target Smart’s Tom Bonier joins us to help us separate the wheat from the chaff. We talk about what to take from these polls and how to balance them against the much more positive election results we’ve seen this year. We also discuss how early voting data continues to evolve and how Sen. Sherrod Brown’s campaign will use Ohio’s recent abortion and marijuana referendums to find new persuadable voters next year.
