The scathing House Ethics Committee report on embattled Rep. George Santos, R-N.Y., alleges he was a cash-strapped candidate who used campaign contributions to live a life of luxury — including spending donors’ money on trips to casinos, shopping at high-end retailers and even Botox treatments and OnlyFans payments.

"Representative Santos was frequently in debt, had an abysmal credit score, and relied on an ever-growing wallet of high-interest credit cards to fund his luxury spending habits. He occasionally deposited large amounts of cash that he has never accounted for, moved money between his various bank accounts in a highly suspicious manner, and made over $240,000 cash withdrawals for unknown purposes,” the report by the panel’s Investigative Subcommittee, or ISC, found.

The probe found what it alleged was “a pattern of campaign committee expenditures for travel and other personal services that may not have represented legitimate and verifiable campaign expenditures.”

The subcommittee also alleged Santos stonewalled its investigation.

    If Republicans WEREN’T ok with this they would have expelled him when given the multiple opportunities! So why do Republicans support using public money on Porn?

      They have to now. The first vote didn’t have the weight of the report behind it. This should be an easy 434-1.

      Won’t be though.

      So he’s able to lie about everything except where his cash went.
