George Santos criminally charged by DOJ

[Lakhota]

Justice Department prosecutors have charged Rep. George Santos with federal offenses, three sources familiar with the matter tell NBC News, the most significant escalation in a growing pile of investigations that have plagued the first-term lawmaker since before he even took office.

One source said that Santos could surrender at the federal courthouse in the Eastern District of New York in the morning, and is expected to make a court appearance on Wednesday afternoon. A congressional source said that Santos learned about the charges on Tuesday. His lawyer has not returned requests for comment.

The New York Republican, who faced legal and political pressure to resign from Congress after he admitted to lying about parts of his background, is the subject of multiple investigations into his finances and other issues.

Well, it is small potatoes compared to Trump being legally branded as a SEXUAL PREDATOR.

Trump would get convicted of anything by a NY jury. You could convict him of murder if he wasnt even in the same country when the murder took place. Absolutely no one is surprised by this result.

Nobody but the TDS crowd cares about that either.

“Sources say”?

You’d think a federal charge would be open record.

 

[Blaster]

What about hunter Biden?

Is this another one of those "let me rush to a thread to tell everyone I don't care" moments?

Not exactly; plenty of us care! It is sad because it takes so much of our time trying to root out the corrupt Republicans in the Congress. Hell, it's a full time job! Bigly!!!

What do you think?

Santos has only himself to blame.

Trump admitted he sexually assaults women. He said it again in his deposition, the Divine Right of Stars to grab any women he wants any time he wants. It’s been that way for a million years.

He never said he did doesn’t assault women. He didnt say he never assaults women. He said he didn’t assault E. Jean Carroll because she “wasn’t his type”.

And then, when he was shown a picture of Carroll at the time of the assault, he said it was Marla Maples, his wife, putting the lie to his statement that Carroll wasn’t his type.

Nobody is surprised because they hand-picked the jury and the judge.
It's complete horseshit.

Apparently the Democrat Party doesn't believe in campaigning anymore.
They just indict everyone they're running against like the commie bastards we all knew they were.

OMG!!!! THE GOP WANTS TO DESTROY DEMOCRACY!!!!!

 

[hjmick]

He only has himself to blame.
