George Santos Expelled from US House
Breaking News:
In a groundbreaking decision, the US House of Representatives voted Friday to expel New York Republican congressman George Santos, making him only the sixth lawmaker in American history to be removed from office. The expulsion stems from an ethics report that uncovered serious violations, including misrepresenting his education and work experience.
The decision came after a months-long investigation by the House Ethics Committee, which found that Santos had "engaged in a pattern of deceit, fraud, and fabrication." The report cited evidence that Santos had fabricated or embellished his resume, including his educational background and work history, and had engaged in other ethical violations.
The expulsion of Santos marks a significant moment in US political history. It is only the sixth time that a member of the House has been expelled, and it underscores the gravity of the ethical violations committed by Santos. The expulsion is also a testament to the bipartisan consensus that Santos's behavior was unacceptable and violated the public's trust.
