Truth-challenged Rep.-elect George Santos claimed Tuesday he made millions in mysterious wealth by selling luxury second-hand goods.
the day after an initial report report by the New York Times triggered a cascade of revelations about his past.Santos did not immediately respond to requests by The Post Wednesday to provide names of clients who might corroborate his claim to be a millionaire master of the second-hand deal.
“If it was requested of me to produce any documentation from this organization, I have no problem doing so to people with the proper authority, not to authoritarian members of Congress that think they have authority over their peers,” he told Semafor. The ongoing public shaming has not deterred Santos from claiming that his lies are not such a big deal despite growing criticism.
“These are blatant lies and it calls into question how your constituents and the American people can believe anything that you may say while standing on the floor of the House of Representatives supposedly fighting for them.
“I believe a full investigation by the House Ethics Committee and, if necessary, law enforcement, is required. New Yorkers deserve the truth and House Republicans deserve an opportunity to govern without this distraction,” Rep.-elect Nick LaLota said Tuesday.
