George Santos caught in utterly embarrassing new lie
House Republican George Santos’ entire life is a lie, so it’s never surprising when he gets caught in yet another lie. But this time around, Santos’s latest lie is weird even by his standards.
Santos tweeted this: “I want to personally thank Josh Lafazan for stopping by my Douglaston office today. It was great to sit down & discuss the concerns that were addressed in the letter he brought in.”
But then Lafazan replied to Santos, telling the real story: “Let’s be very clear: I did not ‘stop by’ your office. I hosted a protest *outside* your office calling on you to resign, and then hand-delivered you a letter to stop wasting police resources. Can’t say I’m surprised you choose to distort the truth here – you’re very good at it.”
What is wrong with this guy? Then again, when you’re dealing with a Republican Party that has Donald Trump as its lord and savior and Kevin McCarthy as its team mascot, someone like George Santos fits right in.
