Good for them!!!! McKim Feb 2023 #1
He's said he won't resign unless his voters call for it, so it looks like that's what they're doing. Rhiannon12866 Feb 2023 #5
Seriously, did he really think he could get away with this? Deuxcents Feb 2023 #2
I've begun wondering if he's a U.S. citizen. Is the reason he resigned from committees? Rhiannon12866 Feb 2023 #4

Good for them, keep it up until he has to resign!!!!! There’s a million legal and dignified ways to confront him and ask him to resign.

He’s in trouble in Brazil, too. His whole life is a fraud.

To qualify for committees he would have had to provide more personal information - and from what we've heard so far, everything he's ever said about his life and background has been lies.

he lied, cheated, stole, duped...he slipped in and out of fake personas depending on his audience., his appearance was quirky and non-threatening (pudgy, oversized glasses, collared shirt, pullover sweater, backpack) ..I think once the NYT exposed Santos as a lowlife crook, the seemly unconnected fabrications/exaggerations came together like pieces of a puzzle, revealing an amoral psychopath now sitting in a seat of power..
