George Santos caught in utterly embarrassing new lie

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

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.
