House expels GOP Rep. George Santos over ethics violations
- The House voted to expel indicted GOP Rep. George Santos over ethics violations, making him only the sixth lawmaker ever to be kicked out of the chamber. The resolution passed with a tally of 311-114, with 105 Republicans voting in favor. All four top House GOP leaders voted to keep Santos in Congress.
- The embattled New York lawmaker, who announced he would not seek reelection, repeatedly refused to resign.
- Expulsion is the most severe form of punishment for a House lawmaker, and Santos is the first member of Congress to be expelled since the Civil War who wasn’t first convicted of a felony.

A no-brainer. He never should have been there.
Voters need to take their votes more seriously and put responsible people in office.

voters need to do research before they cast their ballot. George Santos threw up a lot of red flags about his entire life. He told lies that could have been easily fact checked and made public…..
