After months of intense scrutiny of seemingly every aspect of his biography — from his education and work history to his heritage and religious background — Rep. George Santos has admitted he has been “a terrible liar.”
on Britain’s TalkTV channel, the embattled New York Republican was quick to admit dishonesty on certain aspects of his record — even as he doubled down on others and sought to blame previous lies on societal expectations.
“Well, I’ve been a terrible liar on those subjects, and what I tried to convey to the American people is, I made mistakes,” Santos said.Santos described lies about his higher education as “one of my biggest regrets in life.” He blamed his false claims of having graduated from Baruch College with a 3.89 GPA — despite never attending the institution — on the “expectation [of] society, the pressure,” and not being able to afford to go to college.
Asked why he didn’t think his lies would be uncovered, Santos responded: “I ran in 2020 for the same exact seat for Congress, and I got away with it then.”Santos was also grilled about other aspects of his campaign biography, including his claims that he attended a prestigious private prep school — which said it had no record of him — and his pretensions that he worked for Wall Street firms Citigroup and Goldman Sachs.
