i saw mommy kissing santos (george)

311 voted him out.

But what did Sublime with Rome do?

Don't Start A Ri-ott!

lol “music-news”, is he putting out an expulsion mixtape

Probably?

Omg I hadn’t seen the allegation that he ran up credit card bills on a sitting member of the House and his mother, lmao

Majority of GOP caucus voted to keep him in office.

i feel like being a career low level con artist who runs for congress, wins, and then has his entire financial life exposed to the public and is charged with massive fraud by the federal government redefines the concept of “flying too close to the sun”

I wonder who the two democrats were who voted to keep him. the last vote had a few more and you could tell some were in the line of “let him cook, I want to see what else we find out”

The way Santos acted in office did not seem like someone who was overly regretful of his actions, or that concerned with being expelled.

He is definitely more of a cultural presence than he would have been in he'd resigned back when he was first exposed.

i do think he'll be invited onto one of those shows where you dance

And z_, you know that Sarah Palin was on The Masked Singer, right? It was a whole thing.

Giuliani too, infamously

Tom DeLay was on the dance show

oh definitely! sean spicer was, as well, and i think rick perry started wearing glasses after learning about them on dancing with the stars

i do think he'll be invited onto one of those shows where you dance

also, donald trump became president because he was on the apprentice

fake news

xp i think there is a 100.0% probability of santos being on one of those shows, it would be astonishing if he isn't within a year or so

Giuliani on... masked singer? Hate giving that guy any more exposure, but everyone groaning or even walking out in disgust, that's good tv, baby

Andy Warhol said that in the future, everyone will dance on television for eleven minutes

i love him so much

Santos' parting words: "I no longer have to answer a single question."

The New York Republican left the House floor early as his expulsion became inevitable and left the Capitol in a Jaguar SUV. https://t.co/vptEfM4mRE

gotcha follow-up to santos: so you think you can dance?

I dunno, this all feels a little homophobic

(I'm joking tbc)

Wait, _whose_ Jaguar SUV? Because you know it wasn’t his

Also, did he manage to smuggle his chair out under his coat?

I wonder just how many members of Congress will discover in the coming months/years that they've been identity theived by someone on the inside.

i like this letter from max miller (R-OH) explaining why he voted to expel.

After the first two paragraphs, that third one was *chef's kiss*.

It's all fun and games until someone uses mom's credit card.

Okay I know this is petty under the circumstances, but please don't try to wear a shirt, tie, sweater, jacket, and lapel pin all at once. Pick two or three at most.

he's on his way to the tgif's interview

*tgi fridays

Why does he capitalize mother

tgi friday lore:

Most TGI Fridays have a propeller and a rowing scull on display as part of their antiques, which are actually a part of a story told to all TGI Fridays employees; the scull always contains a pair of saddle shoes and a bottle of champagne to remind employees of the value of teamwork, leadership, and celebrating success. The propeller is always above or near the bar. The thought is that the bar "propels" the restaurant.

xpost he's referring to mike pence's spouse

yes, she is the real victim here

Why does he capitalize mother

George Santos is being punished for simply having the adventure of a lifetime.

I'm a big fan of the proper senators, who possess the panache and class that angers the jealous haters, i.e. the likes of Bob Menendez and George Santos!

Wait, was Santos telling people he was a senator? Because it would track

nah, I think calz is just confusing our legislative branches

oops sorry!

Santos L Halper, Senator
