Two House Democrats from New York on Sunday issued a call to Republican leaders to cooperate fully with investigations into Rep. George Santos amid reporting that certain GOP leaders were at least partially aware of Santos' litany of falsehoods.
published Friday revealed that Santos' trail of falsehoods was known about in late 2021, when his campaign commissioned a preemptive vulnerability study to identify information that political opponents might seize upon.
"Mr. Santos inspired no shortage of suspicion during his 2022 campaign, including in the upper echelons of his own party," the Times wrote. "In light of recent public reporting indicating that each of you had at least some knowledge of the web of lies used by Congressman George Santos to deceive his voters long before they became public, we write to request that you proactively and forthrightly cooperate with all current and future investigations into Mr. Santos, including the investigation by the House Committee on Ethics that Speaker McCarthy confirmed this week," the letter stated.
