Embattled Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) issued more money in refunds than he took in from donors last quarter, calling into question his ability to run for reelection next year.

His campaign also disclosed debt from last year that was not properly reported at the time — or in filings since.

Santos’ campaign refunded more than $35,000 to donors between July and September while taking in only $1,704 in new donations, according to his latest campaign finance report. His campaign also spent more than $42,000 over the period, $20,000 of which was classified as legal expenses. That left him with less than $23,000 in his campaign account.

      What do you mean? Who wouldn’t donate to the great George Santos, Lincoln’s vice president and the inventor of the airbag, potentially saving millions of lives??

      I guess it’s a requirement now. After all, if you haven’t done a crime or two as a Republican, it’s a sign you’re not trying hard enough.

        Seriously though, this guy has committed so many crimes he shouldn’t be in Congress. Shouldn’t he be running for president?

          He’s only got 23 indictments. He needs about 68 more before he qualifies for the Republican nomination for President!

    If the checks cleared, that is.

    George Santos is refunding more money than he’s raising — and belatedly reported debts from 2022

    So in other words, still committing crimes on the daily. Got it.
