    In the entire history of the US, there have only been five ever expelled from the US House of Representatives. Three of those five that were expelled because of that whole Civil War thing.

    Today, we’ve added a sixth name to that list. George Santos.

    And don’t forget the guy has in front of him a very long list of Federal indictments that include hits like conspiracy against the United States, wire fraud, credit card fraud, and money laundering all of those being really big no-nos. Dude has absolutely not been having the greatest last eleven months of his life and boy oh boy we’re JUST getting started on the downhill for him.

    Like it’s a surprisingly very LONG list of crimes he’s facing, like WTF dude did you just spend the last eleven months going, “Okay I’ve had my morning coffee, time to crime!” And then investigators found more crime after he was indicted and was like “Oh no we’ve got to put all that other crime on pause because … I mean JUST LOOK AT THIS SHIT!!” and filed a superseding indictment. Like shit was so bad, US Prosecutors were like “all his previous crimes, we’ve got to put that shit on pause. This new shit, it’s GOT to take priority.” There’s no way you violate that much of the law just by happy chance.

    I don’t know where we’ll all be at in five years from now, but I DO know that each day from now onward, for George Santos it can only get worse for him. Like today, today is the worse day in George Santos’ life. And tomorrow, tomorrow will be the worse day in George Santos’ life. And that pattern will continue for a good amount of time going forward.

      Turns out, the whole “can’t arrest me for criming as long I commit new crimes for you to investigate” only works for a certain fat, orange, drowned-muskrat-wearing Floridiot.

        Now im imaging Trump wearing the rotting corpse of Musk on his head like Heracles wearing the skin of the Nemian lion. But instead of being noble and a sign of power its just slowly decaying rich fuck wearing a rapidly decomposing rich fuck.
