LET’S TALK GEORGE SANTOS, THE GOP REP FROM NEW YORK’S THIRD CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. HE MAY HOLD A HIGH SEAT IN US POWER, BUT THE LIST OF LIES FOLLOWING HIM IS GETTING LONGER BY THE DAY. SO LET’S RUN THROUGH JUST A FEW.
FIRST OFF – SANTOS SAID HE GRADUATED WITH A DEGREE IN ECONOMICS AND FINANCE FROM BARUCH COLLEGE – BUT THE SCHOOL SAYS THEY HAVE NO RECORDS.
HIS CAMPAIGN BIO STATED HE WORKED AT GOLDMAN SACHS AND CITIGROUP – BOTH COMPANIES CONFIRMING TO THE NY TIMES THAT’S NOT TRUE
SANTOS CLAIMED HE FOUNDED AN ANIMAL CHARITY THAT SAVED 2500 DOGS AND CATS – THERE WERE NO IRS RECORDS, AND NO EVIDENCE OF THE CHARITY BEING REGISTERED.
AND THAT’S NOT ALL – HE WROTE ON TWITTER THAT 9/11 CLAIMED HIS MOTHER’S LIFE – BUT VISA DOCUMENTS APPEAR TO SHOW SHE WAS IN BRAZIL IN 2001.
SPEAKING OF FAMILY, HE SAID HIS FAMILY SURVIVED THE HOLOCAUST – GENEALOGY RECORDS REVIEWED BY CNN SHOW NO SIGNS OF JEWISH HERITAGE.
MORE RECENTLY CLAIMS BEGAN SWIRLING THAT GEORGE SANTOS PERFORMED AS A DRAG QUEEN IN BRAZIL – WHICH HE CALLED CATEGORICALLY FALSE… DAYS LATER HE SAID, “SUE ME FOR HAVING A LIFE.”
WHILE SOME OF THESE MAY SEEM LIKE SMALL LIES, IT’S ONLY A FRACTION OF THE LIES SANTOS IS BEING ACCUSED OF.NOW HE’S THE SUBJECT OF YET ANOTHER MORE SERIOUS CONTROVERSY AFTER SEEMING TO SUGGEST $700,000 IN LOANS FOR HIS CAMPAIGN DID NOT COME FROM HIS PERSONAL FUNDS AS HE ORIGINALLY CLAIMED.
WHILE MORE QUESTIONS REMAIN, GOP LEADERSHIP HAS EXPRESSED SOME CALL TO ACTION IF SANTOS IN FACT BROKE THE LAW. HERE AT STRAIGHT ARROW NEWS WE WILL BE FOLLOWING THE UNBIASED STRAIGHT FACTS – TO KEEP YOU UPDATED.
