George Santos says Republicans embarrass him, that’s why he’s leaving the party

Disgraced former Rep. George Santos (R-NY), who was expelled from the House last year after, among other things, allegedly stealing cash from fellow Republicans, is too smart for the GOP and will run for reelection. an independent “Ultra MAGA/Trump supporter. “

“After today’s embarrassing rally in the House, I have an idea that I may no longer be a component of the Republican Party,” Santos wrote on X last Friday. He was probably referring to Congress’s passage of a spending bill aimed at averting a federal government shutdown. To get the bill through either chamber of Congress and sign it through President Joe Biden, many unrelated conservative provisions were removed from the spending bill. More than 40 anti-LGBTQ provisions have been removed.

Santos called his former teammates “fucking idiots” in an organization chat. They don’t seem very bothersome.

“The Republican Party continues to lie and defraud its electoral base,” Santos wrote. He faces 33 federal charges similar to alleged schemes to enrich himself. “In conscience, I cannot associate myself with a party that defends nothing and allows itself to be involved in everything. “

Earlier this month, he announced he would run for reelection in New York’s First Congressional District, putting him at odds with Rep. Nick LaLota (R-NY), a Republican who spearheaded efforts to oust Santos, in the GOP primary. In the past, he represented the state’s Third Congressional District.
