Bipartisanship Comes to the House in the Expulsion of George Santos Though it shows up kicking and screaming

Every once in a while, some good news comes out of Washington. George Santos has been expelled from the United States House by a bipartisan vote of 211 to 114.

Amazing in a couple of ways. First, that it took this long to get rid of the lying son-of-a-bitch, and second that 114 members of the House voted against expulsion. But it’s bi-partisanship, never-the-less. Something that is about as rare these days as a particle of truth coming out of George’s mouth.

Two Democrats voted to keep him. And Two voted present. Reps. Bobby Scott (Va.) and Nikema Williams (Ga.) were the only Democrats to vote against expelling Santos. Representatives Al Green (D-Texas) and Jonathan Jackson (D-Ill.) voted present. It really doesn’t matter because no one knows who the hell they are anyway.

For those of us who live in New York State, we’ll be happy to know that Representative Elise Stefanik of New York’s 21st District and Republican Conference Chair, voted to keep him. No surprise there. Frankly, I think she has a secret crush on anyone who is under indictment. It’s kinda’ kinky really. Her two most auspicious endorsements in Congress have been to support Donald Trump and stand behind George Santos. Both have enough indictments to keep lawyers busy for years and to remain a target for her adoration, no doubt.

It’ll be interesting to see how Georgie pays his legal fees after this. He has a 23-count Federal indictment against him. And now, his bank account is going to be $176,000 short next year (his yearly Congressional salary) as he will no longer be on the public tit. But, I guess he’ll probably just steal the money from somewhere else.

Last but not least in the “I told you so” department is Mr. Santos’ parting shot. Good old Georgie had a classic comment as he left the floor, what I will now claim as an early Christmas present … the “Santos Clause”:

“To hell with this place.” — George Santos’ last words upon leaving Congress.
