I like the assholes who defend him with the completely disingenuous argument of "everybody lies".  Yes, everyone lies, but not all the time about everything to this insane degree.  It's like claiming all speeding is equal, like going 75 in a 70 is the same as doing 75 in a 25 zone. >

‘Everybody lies’ is such a cop out. 
Like when people say “I’m a bitch, and I’ve told you that so…” like it gives them an excuse to be awful. 
I tell these people “That’s like saying ‘I’m an axe murderer, and I’ve told you, so if I murder you with an axe that’s on you’” >

Republicans are so beyond consequence even general conversation online no longer holds them accountable.  Either the Dem's can be blamed, or it's the government as a whole that's evil... Republicans are just a natural force though and we don't talk about them directly because they trained us that makes us sound "biased". >

True... and not. There is lots and lots of blame that goes around about Republicans.
The issue is largely that Dems criticize each other non-stop. Republicans criticize Dems. Republicans never criticize themselves. So dems get 2x, Reps get 1x and the media couldn't give a fuck about reality because reality doesn't drive views. >

Well of course. But thats not how its presented by the media because the media doesn't care about reality.

Here is the full report:
"I did not swindle a disabled veteran while his dog died of a tumor" were the first words spoken by controversial figure George Santos upon entering the fast food establishment "Wendy's". 
Witnesses who were at the restaurant at around nine and a half in the morning claim the rebuttal towards these allegations was "unpromted" and "frankly, strangely specific". After the initial statement, Santos went up to order while verbalizing his innocense of other behaviors which no one was accusing him off; according to a confused bystander.
George Santos is quoted as saying "I did not kick a blind man's walking stick out of his hand"; "I did not poison all of the strawberry jam donuts during a christmas party"; and "I have never in my life planted pressure triggered explosive mines below the entrance of 7 different orphanages in a single night".
When interviewed, the worker who was attending customers at the moment recalls having to remind Mr. Santos that he was in fact within a fast food restaurant ran by the Wendy's brand, after which George Santos reportedly walked out of the establishment while seeming flustered.
"It was very uncomfortable." Said a woman who had seen the exchange.
"I just don't understand why he would do those things, children are dead now." Adds another witness.
"I think there was some hair in my burger, the kitchen staff should be more careful" commented another attendee.
All of the staff present that morning was comprised exclusively by bald Armenian men in their 40s. >

Sir, this is a Wendy's >

The most literal use of the phrase in context I've ever heard irl. This fucking world ceases to bemuse me. >

Yup, shame no one recorded it. Apparently someone tried to but they mistakenly pointed the camera towards themselves and covered their phone's microhpone with their finger so the only recording of this event is just an old man frowning and slowly eating fries for three minutes with muffled sounds in the background. >

Now THAT'S a reaction video I can get behind. 🤷‍♂️ >

There's two things that always fucking astound me. 
1: How someone so cartoonishly evil exists in the first place. 
2: How the Republican party finds them without fail and gives them power. >

The Republican party is known for protecting their own no matter what. It's also where the most unethical businesses in America like to spend most of their money. So it's not much that the Republican party finds these people, more that they're attracted to it like flies are attracted to shit. 
And before someone accuses me of being a partisan hack, yes, Democrats are also corrupt, but they're a lot more subtle about it. >

Republicans point fingers at Democrats in general calling them groomers and pedos, yet they have Gaetz and Boebert the lady who married a man who exposed himself to underage girls and assaulted Boebert.  They do not care about children unless they can be used. >

Never forget that Gaetz was the only person in Congress who voted against an anti human trafficking bill in 2017 >

He’s making it easy. Anything he denies doing, you know for a fact the opposite is true. >

Sounds like someone is gearing up to be the 2024 GOP presidential pick. >

Read that as prick >

I think Santos was recruited by the Republican Party to act as a purposeful distraction.  They researched his back story, realized that he's not just a compulsive liar, but a compulsive liar whose lies are so absurd that whenever conservatives want to pass some horrible new law, they throw the media a bone from their "George Santos Crazy Shit" file knowing that it will buy them a news cycle.
Basically, my theory is that, metaphorically, the rest of the Republicans are stealing your car behind you in broad daylight, but you can't take your eyes of the naked man furiously masturbating while doing back-flips and juggling axes in the other direction. >

This is it. This is why they bitch about transgenders in the bathroom, CRT, and other culture war bullshit. The crazy gets the clicks while they silently pass bills that destroy our lives. >


pass bills

Lol >

So he probably did it more than once? >

He’s only swindle-ish >

so, a denial - well there it is then, absolute confirmation that Santos did in fact swindle a disabled veteran while their dog died of a tumor. >

Keep reading the article.. the disabled veteran was homeless and the dog was a service animal named Sapphire. 
The veteran wound up panhandling to get enough money to have Sapphire euthanized and cremated. 
I have no words adequate to express my feelings about Santos. >

Even if half these accusations are false the guy is a real piece of shit >

Good news - I have zero doubt all the accusations are true, and these are just the ones we know about. This shithead is a superstar GOP dude. >

What a piece of shit. >

Of all the things the things he had done and all the lie he said this one is the most disgusting he did. >

It's like Mad Libs with this guy. >

Kickstarter idea right here. >

But if he did, he could bring those skills to the small business committee he now sits on >

Does any of this matter? It's not like politicians are held accountable for anything. So why not lie, cheat, and steal to get what they want? >

They might get him on the 700k loan to his campaign. He definitely didn’t have 700k to loan, so someone very dirty came up with it. >

I'll believe it when I see it. Politicians are almost as protected as cops. >

Almost? >

I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if someone punched this dude in the face. >

I would be. Mtg, Norbert, gaetz, gosar, Jordan all have intact noses. >

At this point, the staff for his primary and general election opponents should never get hired again.  How do you miss an entire history being fabricated until after the election. >

He seems to have a gift for finding the things nobody would ever think someone would lie about. >

This guy is trying to become the speaker of the house. >

Waiting for the video or email of Santos doing exactly what he denied doing.
my favourite part of the Trump years:
News:"Trump did this, source says"
Tump: no I didn't.
News:"source has video/email"
Tump: no he doesnt
News: "email/video verifying what we said is real" 
Tump : whatever on that video/email isn't as bad as they say it is.
News: "email/video released, it's worse than they said it is".
Tump: something more outrageous that makes us forget the last outrage. >

At this point his existence as a human should be questioned >

I love it. Drip, drip, drip. Every day something new. I bet McCarthy is getting pressured to do something, but his balls have been legislatively removed. >

Lol republicans don’t give AF are you kidding? >

OP must be a centrist Dem >

I'm pretty sure that dude has antisocial personality disorder(sociopath). That blank expressionless stare with those dead eyes, the pathological lying, the repeated stories of him doing heartless shit to people, bragging about taking advantage of people and showing no remorse. He should not be in any sort of position of power, that motherfucker is dangerous. >

its safe to say that u r better believing the opposite of what he says >

"I didn't swindle a disabled vet 'while their dog died of a tumor'. The dog was still alive last time I spoke with the disabled vet.'  - Anthony Devolder. >

I wonder how many aliases this imbecile has. >

I’m a veterinarian.
I would be very interested to know the medical details of this case.
“Died of a tumor” is only slightly more specific than “got sick and died.”
Some tumors are curable, some are treatable, some are neither. Was the guy refused funds to treat to a metastatic heart-base hemangiosarcoma? Or a benign splenic hemangioma? Both can be dangerous, but one can often be solved while the other is entirely fatal.
Survival times aren’t uniform for these things. Sometimes charities need to make hard decisions about the best use of funds. 
That doesn’t mean George Santos is off the hook, but I don’t think there’s enough information in this article to say that he did wrong in this case other than not give the guy money. May not have changed the outcome though.
Edit: So the Patch article isn’t clear either. It’s a benign lipoma? Or it’s a “stomach tumor”? Totally the wrong place for a “stomach tumor” and leiomyosarcomas are hard to catch and find without ultrasound or something. Kind of unlikely.
It’s bulging out funny, weird lipoma? GIGANTIC splenic mass? They mention a fatty tumor?
Possible that one vet said they could do it but another couldn’t. There are all sorts of reasons for that. Metastases? Tumor size? Adhesions? Location? Wrapping around something else? Heart murmur?
I think there need to be more details about this. If somebody links me more detailed articles, I’ll read them and give my two cents.
Edit 2: I think that tumor may have looked like a benign fatty mass but actually was a sarcoma underneath. The aggressive growth in size makes me suspicious of something much worse than a lipoma. And the first vet may have said, “Yeah, no problem.” But a month later it might’ve been, “Oh shit that’s actually a lot worse than it looked.”
Edit 3: I’ve had patients with tumors that looked like a lipoma, a benign fatty tumor, but were hiding a sarcoma underneath. They bleed a lot more than a regular lipoma and I’ve bailed on them when I’ve found them, leaving them for a boarded surgeon to do. Somebody might’ve gotten to another vet and found that the tumor was a lot more serious. They might’ve wisely refused to do something beyond their scope.
The whole thing sounds scummy, sure, but I think there’s nuance here that isn’t adequately conveyed in the article. >

I have no reason to defend any politician, I live on the west coast and frankly don’t know anything about him other than when Reddit publishes a discussion about him, but there’s not enough evidence in the article for anyone to come to any legitimate conclusion. It feels like reddit shouting “witch, witch, witch!” and I don’t see very many actual, rational discussions here. >

Well, it sounds like they raised money on his story and didn’t give it to him. That’s a bit scummy. But I’m not sure it would’ve changed the outcome for the dog. >

It sounds like it. But there’s no real proof I could find in the linked article other than hearsay and a broken twitter link that may or may not be real. I’ll take the downvotes, but I’ll continue to be skeptical unless there’s something I’m missing. >

There is tons of video of him saying stuff that is absolutely not true. He probably has some issues. >

Never said he didn’t. >

r/suspiciouslyspecific >

Further proof the GOP is an evil party that deserves to rot. Also further proof the NY Dems are run by the most incompetent mofos on the planet, see Kathy Hochul using all her political capital on a conservative pro life judge atm. If they did even a bare minimum amount of oppo research, they'd have won this district by 20. Then again, if New York centrist/conservative Dems hadn't focused on trying to out hard on crime the Republicans, they might have been focused on messaging that works for them.
Edit: Florida Dems also did the same thing and literally nominated a Republican former governor as their candidate and got crushed harder than they have in decades. New York and Florida saw massive downturns in Dem turnout, and upticks in independents voting for the GOP. Accepting GOP framing just demoralizes your own voters and helps the GOP set the tone. Trying to out GOP the GOP doesn't work. Manchin is the exception to the rule and this isn't 1998 anymore. >

Democrats don't want to win. >

Some of these people would kick a puppy for a dollar >

I think we've identified the Antichrist. >

This is so specific it must have come off the CV he submitted when applying to be a republican. >

This guy is a walking super villain origin story >

Every time this guy denies something I assume it’s true and even worse than the initial story >

I swear, every new story that comes out about this dude is more ridiculous than the last. >

Ladies and gentlemen this dude is worthless. >

He definitely swindled a disabled veteran while their dog died of a tumor >

He is sounding more Republican by the day. >

Since every day with him is Opposite Day, he means yes he did >

Who’s town does this asshole represent? 
Buuuuncha fucking dummies there >

Are we sure we’re not in a cartoon at this point? >

So as more and more heinous shit comes out about this conman clown. 
Whose placing bets on when the special election will be? My impression is that these things are the least of the skeletons in his closet. Soon one will popout that will pull the trapdoor under his feet. >

Oh, he denied it. He must be innocent, then. >

Every time George opens his mouth, he’s lying. >

Nominate this guy to run the country now, GOP! He’s PERFECT! /s >

Resign! >

Did he swear it ? That would be hilarious >

Still, the most honest Republican in congress. >

The fact this isn't an onion headline just goes to show how far America has fallen. 
What an absolute joke. This guy just got committee assignments. He's got actual power and we're going to watch him pour dump trucks of money into his pockets with zero repercussions. >

American politics never ceases to amaze me. 
If you lie about your qualifications in a white collar job, you get fired. But if you do it in congress, you get seats on the House Committee >

This dude is such a terrible person.  Wouldn’t be surprised if next week we leaned that he was the one who killed the dog. >

What a piece of fucking shit >

The real George Santos was the tumor we made along the way. >

George Santos is not to be trusted, and literally anything he has said and done should be independently verified. >

I can' wait for the Netflix/Hulu docu-series about that dude >

This guy is just a terrible human being, like, all the way through to his core >

So he did it then. The guy has lied about literally every part of who he is - again, we don't even know if his name is George Santos. What he has to say about anything at all is worthless and he should be nowhere near government. >

Damn I read this wrong! I thought it said George Santos DIES swindling a disabled vet while their dog died of a tumor. >

You could play Two Lies, One Truth with this guy and he'd just swap the truth for an ever wilder lie. >

If a republican says something the opposite is often true.
Thus we can infer the denial is an admission of guilt. >

Of course he’s denying it. That’s what he does. He watched Trumps lie constantly and get away with it, why not this idiot?
The Republicans have become a party where lying is rewarded. >

That is a weirdly specific denial. >

With his current reputation, if someone came out saying he murdered someone, and he said he didn’t, I would believe him to be a murderer. 
Also, it’s probably only a matter of time until we find literal skeletons in his closet. The guy’s clearly a psychopath. >

I feel like this sort of thing isn't the kind of incident where you're falsely accused. It's just too specific and horrible. >

Is he trying to win an award for being the scummiest guy in politics? >

Gee, why would anyone disbelieve him? >

What in the cartoonish evil villain shit is this? >

Tbh this might be the thing that forces him into resignation and also hiding. The American people will literally attack someone for harming a dog. >

I can laugh at everything else this guy has done, but this calls for the guillotine >

I feel like at this point he’s lied so much people would believe anything about him. “This just in, George Santos lied to his ex wife about having a bigger penis than Ron Jeremy” >

This dude is dude is the worst politician I think I've ever seen >

So that means that he definitely did it then. >

Next you’re gonna tell me George Santos stole candy. From a baby!! >

He’ll deny it, of course. That’s when we will know he did that too. >

This is one of those things that I always consider a non-story. X denies accusations of Y. Of course X denies Y. You yourself would deny someone accusing you of Y. Wake me when a trial starts, or when/if they reach a settlement deal. >

Imma just say if you are the kind of person who, when you deny an allegation like this, people still do that thin-lips tippy-head hmmm that lets you know they are not convinced, you need to reassess your life choices.
Also - Devolder? As in, De Volder Mort? That's the name you went with when trying to hide being an actual death-eater? Really? Dude. >

Well, he said it so it must be true. >

This is what we have become. Our country is FUCKED. >

How does this guy find time for so much fraud? >

I really don't know who this is but shouldn't we be happy he's denying it? How do we know the allegations are true? >

George Santos has made dozens of bold-face lies. Not even like misinterpretations or anything like how most politicians lie, but just strait up under no perspective is this true. Him denying anything is kind of meaningless, since he's lost the benefit of any doubt. >

He's a man of his word >

Oh you!!! >

2023s "Headline of the Year" right there. >

"I would do anything to be a Congressman, but I won't do that." >

So he swindled a disabled veteran while their dog died of a tumor? >

In the real world jobs when you scam or swindle others you're placed on leave or suspension. In the GQP you're promoted and idolized... >

so he definitely did. >

Keep it up, make this pathetic lying asshole the face of the Republican party. At least then, their outward appearance will be an honest representation of the party as a whole. >

“No no no. NO. I did NOT. His dog had died HOURS before then!” >

Did someone accuse him or did he just randomly state that he didn't do this? Because both scenarios are equally plausible. >

Article doesn't show any receipts. Just a single Twitter post of someone advocating for the charity. We're supposed to take that as proof. 
Unless there's proof elsewhere im not aware of. >

This fuckin guy probably killed someone too >

Peak republican. >

So at this point I think it safe to believe that every con artist in America has become a Republican politician, or one of their campaign staffers.
Their voters should be very proud of their ignorance.  It has reached astounding levels that I thought impossible before the MAGA honey wagon rolled across America. >

He seems awfully trust worthy. So believe what he says for sure! >

God this is heartbreaking. Telling that poor veteran to panhandle for money to put down and cremate his best friend. This is enough of the human race for me tonight. >

I don’t believe him. >

wtf did I just read >

At this point, why aren't people just inundating him with outlandish claims that he should confirm or deny? >

Thanks Republicans! >

God he's like a turbo Trump >

Man lies his entire life.. but this one is supposed to be believed... >

I'm sure he denies EVERYTHING that is said about him. >

When a proven compulsive liar denies anything it doesn’t mean much. >

With all the lies this guy has made, you could make up literally anything, and him denying it would make it more believable that it did in fact happen. >

I he denies it that means he did it with 100% certainty.  There has never been a truthful sentence out of this guys mouth. >

Republicans already gutted the ethics committee, but they try to assure the public that he will be investigated by the ethics committee. 
All Republican Congressmen are complicit with George Santos' criminal activity and fraud. Now Santos is in charge of "Small Business" AND! "Science, space & technology". Goodbye to money going to those programs. >

He is nothing but a liar 🤥, can’t believe anything he says, liars don’t know how to tell the truth >

He is. Complete phony >

George Santos earned the Purple Heart in World War II He dropped both nukes, single handedly bringing the war to an end. So he deserves veterans money.
Also George Santos is a world renown brain surgeon who removed the dogs tumor using ordinary garden tools and today the dog just graduated high school with honors.
"Nothing is impossible for George Santos" - Chuck Norris >

This guy is such garbage.   So frustrating that we get fools like these >

At this point I would not be surprised if he’s literally stolen candy from a baby >

Little lying pudgy man. >

If he keeps up this pace he’s liable to be the next gop candidate for president. >

How long until he starts claiming he's a habitual liar who needs treatment? Then cries about how everyone is being abelist? >

Whatever he says, the opposite is going to be the correct truth. >

Sounds like something someone who swindled a disabled veteran while their dog died of a tumor would say. >

I can't imagine ever getting myself into a position where I feel the need to deny "swindling a disabled veteran while their dog died of a tumor." >

He has no credibility at this point, I wouldn't believe him if he said the sky was blue and water is wet. >

Did he even have a mother to die or was he created in a peach tree dish? >

All the best come from peach tree dishes 😁. You might say he's the worst the lab ever saw in a petri dish. >

Why would anyone believe him? >

Theme song for these guys >

On-brand >

He should have addmited he did it. That way we'd think he's lying and that would mean he's innocent. Got to work that pathological liar angle to your advantage. >

If that’s what he said, he definitely did it then >

The shiiit this (documented) liar has to try to disprove is deeeeep. 
Cant wait for him to be removed from office either by the voters or an angry victim of one of his cons. >

Oh boy, I wonder how the Republicans are gonna ignore this one. Oh, right...they'll just ignore it. McCarthy has already stated that he has no interest in going after Santos. He's one of the good ole' boys. And shit, Santos even had a staffer impersonate McCarthy's aide to raise more illegal money. Lying, grifting, stealing, corruption, white supremacism, literal terrorism, these are all QUALIFIERS to be a Republican, not disqualifiers. At least, not in their point of view. >

What? >

This guy ticks all the boxes of what a GOP voter wants. He’s almost too perfect. >

George Santos? The inventor of the doorknob? >

"Fake. No clue what this is."  
lololol you can't make up a weaker denial >

In every picture I see of this piece of shit, he looks just as fake as his life is. >

In all fairness to Santos, he swindled the veteran BEFORE the dog died of a tumor. 
(This is of course made up and is sarcasm at Santos' expense) >

This is what you get by just voting along party lines, instead of really trying to choose a candidate based on their work history and actual political goals. >

"George Santos denies..." is one of the most meaningless phrases I have read in a while. >

This guy is becoming the Chuck Norris of stupid things >

They researched his back story, realized that he's not just a compulsive liar, but a compulsive liar whose lies are so absurd that whenever conservatives want to pass some horrible new law, they throw the media a bone from their "George Santos Crazy Shit" file knowing that it will buy them a news cycle.
Basically, my theory is that, metaphorically, the rest of the Republicans are stealing your car behind you in broad daylight, but you can't take your eyes of the naked man furiously masturbating while doing back-flips and juggling axes in the other direction. >

This is it. This is why they bitch about transgenders in the bathroom, CRT, and other culture war bullshit. The crazy gets the clicks while they silently pass bills that destroy our lives. >


pass bills

Lol >

So he probably did it more than once? >

He’s only swindle-ish >

so, a denial - well there it is then, absolute confirmation that Santos did in fact swindle a disabled veteran while their dog died of a tumor. >

Keep reading the article.. the disabled veteran was homeless and the dog was a service animal named Sapphire. 
The veteran wound up panhandling to get enough money to have Sapphire euthanized and cremated. 
I have no words adequate to express my feelings about Santos. >

Even if half these accusations are false the guy is a real piece of shit >

Good news - I have zero doubt all the accusations are true, and these are just the ones we know about. This shithead is a superstar GOP dude. >

What a piece of shit. >

Of all the things the things he had done and all the lie he said this one is the most disgusting he did. >

It's like Mad Libs with this guy. >

Kickstarter idea right here. >

But if he did, he could bring those skills to the small business committee he now sits on >

Does any of this matter? It's not like politicians are held accountable for anything. So why not lie, cheat, and steal to get what they want? >

They might get him on the 700k loan to his campaign. He definitely didn’t have 700k to loan, so someone very dirty came up with it. >

I'll believe it when I see it. Politicians are almost as protected as cops. >

Almost? >

I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if someone punched this dude in the face. >

I would be. Mtg, Norbert, gaetz, gosar, Jordan all have intact noses. >

At this point, the staff for his primary and general election opponents should never get hired again.  How do you miss an entire history being fabricated until after the election. >

He seems to have a gift for finding the things nobody would ever think someone would lie about. >

This guy is trying to become the speaker of the house. >

Waiting for the video or email of Santos doing exactly what he denied doing.
my favourite part of the Trump years:
News:"Trump did this, source says"
Tump: no I didn't.
News:"source has video/email"
Tump: no he doesnt
News: "email/video verifying what we said is real" 
Tump : whatever on that video/email isn't as bad as they say it is.
News: "email/video released, it's worse than they said it is".
Tump: something more outrageous that makes us forget the last outrage. >

At this point his existence as a human should be questioned >

I love it. Drip, drip, drip. Every day something new. I bet McCarthy is getting pressured to do something, but his balls have been legislatively removed. >

Lol republicans don’t give AF are you kidding? >

OP must be a centrist Dem >

I'm pretty sure that dude has antisocial personality disorder(sociopath). That blank expressionless stare with those dead eyes, the pathological lying, the repeated stories of him doing heartless shit to people, bragging about taking advantage of people and showing no remorse. He should not be in any sort of position of power, that motherfucker is dangerous. >

its safe to say that u r better believing the opposite of what he says >

Is this a real person? Every headline I see just sounds like the Onion >

Has a face that makes you wanna go «this mafucker» >

From everywhere outside the U.S., this is 🤌🏻🤌🏻 America. >

He definitely did this. >

Dude legit looks like a nazi. Just needs the techno and round glasses >

Liars lie.  When caught they lie to protect the lie or the crime.  Of course denies it. >

That’s as low as it gets if this is true. I don’t know how he sleeps at night. >

Yes let's take his word for it >

Sounds like presidential material! >

100%... Republican playbook >

"I didn't swindle a disabled vet 'while their dog died of a tumor'. The dog was still alive last time I spoke with the disabled vet.'  - Anthony Devolder. >

I wonder how many aliases this imbecile has. >

I’m a veterinarian.
I would be very interested to know the medical details of this case.
“Died of a tumor” is only slightly more specific than “got sick and died.”
Some tumors are curable, some are treatable, some are neither. Was the guy refused funds to treat to a metastatic heart-base hemangiosarcoma? Or a benign splenic hemangioma? Both can be dangerous, but one can often be solved while the other is entirely fatal.
Survival times aren’t uniform for these things. Sometimes charities need to make hard decisions about the best use of funds. 
That doesn’t mean George Santos is off the hook, but I don’t think there’s enough information in this article to say that he did wrong in this case other than not give the guy money. May not have changed the outcome though.
Edit: So the Patch article isn’t clear either. It’s a benign lipoma? Or it’s a “stomach tumor”? Totally the wrong place for a “stomach tumor” and leiomyosarcomas are hard to catch and find without ultrasound or something. Kind of unlikely.
It’s bulging out funny, weird lipoma? GIGANTIC splenic mass? They mention a fatty tumor?
Possible that one vet said they could do it but another couldn’t. There are all sorts of reasons for that. Metastases? Tumor size? Adhesions? Location? Wrapping around something else? Heart murmur?
I think there need to be more details about this. If somebody links me more detailed articles, I’ll read them and give my two cents.
Edit 2: I think that tumor may have looked like a benign fatty mass but actually was a sarcoma underneath. The aggressive growth in size makes me suspicious of something much worse than a lipoma. And the first vet may have said, “Yeah, no problem.” But a month later it might’ve been, “Oh shit that’s actually a lot worse than it looked.”
Edit 3: I’ve had patients with tumors that looked like a lipoma, a benign fatty tumor, but were hiding a sarcoma underneath. They bleed a lot more than a regular lipoma and I’ve bailed on them when I’ve found them, leaving them for a boarded surgeon to do. Somebody might’ve gotten to another vet and found that the tumor was a lot more serious. They might’ve wisely refused to do something beyond their scope.
The whole thing sounds scummy, sure, but I think there’s nuance here that isn’t adequately conveyed in the article. >

I have no reason to defend any politician, I live on the west coast and frankly don’t know anything about him other than when Reddit publishes a discussion about him, but there’s not enough evidence in the article for anyone to come to any legitimate conclusion. It feels like reddit shouting “witch, witch, witch!” and I don’t see very many actual, rational discussions here. >

Well, it sounds like they raised money on his story and didn’t give it to him. That’s a bit scummy. But I’m not sure it would’ve changed the outcome for the dog. >

It sounds like it. But there’s no real proof I could find in the linked article other than hearsay and a broken twitter link that may or may not be real. I’ll take the downvotes, but I’ll continue to be skeptical unless there’s something I’m missing. >

There is tons of video of him saying stuff that is absolutely not true. He probably has some issues. >

Never said he didn’t. >

r/suspiciouslyspecific >

Further proof the GOP is an evil party that deserves to rot. Also further proof the NY Dems are run by the most incompetent mofos on the planet, see Kathy Hochul using all her political capital on a conservative pro life judge atm. If they did even a bare minimum amount of oppo research, they'd have won this district by 20. Then again, if New York centrist/conservative Dems hadn't focused on trying to out hard on crime the Republicans, they might have been focused on messaging that works for them.
Edit: Florida Dems also did the same thing and literally nominated a Republican former governor as their candidate and got crushed harder than they have in decades. New York and Florida saw massive downturns in Dem turnout, and upticks in independents voting for the GOP. Accepting GOP framing just demoralizes your own voters and helps the GOP set the tone. Trying to out GOP the GOP doesn't work. Manchin is the exception to the rule and this isn't 1998 anymore. >

Democrats don't want to win. >

Some of these people would kick a puppy for a dollar >

I think we've identified the Antichrist. >

This is so specific it must have come off the CV he submitted when applying to be a republican. >

This guy is a walking super villain origin story >

Every time this guy denies something I assume it’s true and even worse than the initial story >

I swear, every new story that comes out about this dude is more ridiculous than the last. >

Ladies and gentlemen this dude is worthless. >

He definitely swindled a disabled veteran while their dog died of a tumor >

He is sounding more Republican by the day. >

Since every day with him is Opposite Day, he means yes he did >

Who’s town does this asshole represent? 
Buuuuncha fucking dummies there >

Are we sure we’re not in a cartoon at this point? >

So as more and more heinous shit comes out about this conman clown. 
Whose placing bets on when the special election will be? My impression is that these things are the least of the skeletons in his closet. Soon one will popout that will pull the trapdoor under his feet. >

Oh, he denied it. He must be innocent, then. >

Every time George opens his mouth, he’s lying. >

Nominate this guy to run the country now, GOP! He’s PERFECT! /s >

Resign! >

Did he swear it ? That would be hilarious >

Still, the most honest Republican in congress. >

The fact this isn't an onion headline just goes to show how far America has fallen. 
What an absolute joke. This guy just got committee assignments. He's got actual power and we're going to watch him pour dump trucks of money into his pockets with zero repercussions. >

American politics never ceases to amaze me. 
If you lie about your qualifications in a white collar job, you get fired. But if you do it in congress, you get seats on the House Committee >

This dude is such a terrible person.  Wouldn’t be surprised if next week we leaned that he was the one who killed the dog. >

What a piece of fucking shit >

The real George Santos was the tumor we made along the way. >

George Santos is not to be trusted, and literally anything he has said and done should be independently verified. >

I can' wait for the Netflix/Hulu docu-series about that dude >

This guy is just a terrible human being, like, all the way through to his core >

So he did it then. The guy has lied about literally every part of who he is - again, we don't even know if his name is George Santos. What he has to say about anything at all is worthless and he should be nowhere near government. >

Damn I read this wrong! I thought it said George Santos DIES swindling a disabled vet while their dog died of a tumor. >

You could play Two Lies, One Truth with this guy and he'd just swap the truth for an ever wilder lie. >

If a republican says something the opposite is often true.
Thus we can infer the denial is an admission of guilt. >

Of course he’s denying it. That’s what he does. He watched Trumps lie constantly and get away with it, why not this idiot?
The Republicans have become a party where lying is rewarded. >

That is a weirdly specific denial. >

With his current reputation, if someone came out saying he murdered someone, and he said he didn’t, I would believe him to be a murderer. 
Also, it’s probably only a matter of time until we find literal skeletons in his closet. The guy’s clearly a psychopath. >

I feel like this sort of thing isn't the kind of incident where you're falsely accused. It's just too specific and horrible. >

Is he trying to win an award for being the scummiest guy in politics? >

Gee, why would anyone disbelieve him? >

What in the cartoonish evil villain shit is this? >

Tbh this might be the thing that forces him into resignation and also hiding. The American people will literally attack someone for harming a dog. >

I can laugh at everything else this guy has done, but this calls for the guillotine >

I feel like at this point he’s lied so much people would believe anything about him. “This just in, George Santos lied to his ex wife about having a bigger penis than Ron Jeremy” >

This dude is dude is the worst politician I think I've ever seen >

So that means that he definitely did it then. >

Next you’re gonna tell me George Santos stole candy. From a baby!! >

He’ll deny it, of course. That’s when we will know he did that too. >

This is one of those things that I always consider a non-story. X denies accusations of Y. Of course X denies Y. You yourself would deny someone accusing you of Y. Wake me when a trial starts, or when/if they reach a settlement deal. >

Imma just say if you are the kind of person who, when you deny an allegation like this, people still do that thin-lips tippy-head hmmm that lets you know they are not convinced, you need to reassess your life choices.
Also - Devolder? As in, De Volder Mort? That's the name you went with when trying to hide being an actual death-eater? Really? Dude. >

Well, he said it so it must be true. >

This is what we have become. Our country is FUCKED. >

How does this guy find time for so much fraud? >

I really don't know who this is but shouldn't we be happy he's denying it? How do we know the allegations are true? >

George Santos has made dozens of bold-face lies. Not even like misinterpretations or anything like how most politicians lie, but just strait up under no perspective is this true. Him denying anything is kind of meaningless, since he's lost the benefit of any doubt. >

He's a man of his word >

Oh you!!! >

2023s "Headline of the Year" right there. >

"I would do anything to be a Congressman, but I won't do that." >

So he swindled a disabled veteran while their dog died of a tumor? >

In the real world jobs when you scam or swindle others you're placed on leave or suspension. In the GQP you're promoted and idolized... >

so he definitely did. >

Keep it up, make this pathetic lying asshole the face of the Republican party. At least then, their outward appearance will be an honest representation of the party as a whole. >

“No no no. NO. I did NOT. His dog had died HOURS before then!” >

Did someone accuse him or did he just randomly state that he didn't do this? Because both scenarios are equally plausible. >

Article doesn't show any receipts. Just a single Twitter post of someone advocating for the charity. We're supposed to take that as proof. 
Unless there's proof elsewhere im not aware of. >

This fuckin guy probably killed someone too >

Peak republican. >

So at this point I think it safe to believe that every con artist in America has become a Republican politician, or one of their campaign staffers.
Their voters should be very proud of their ignorance.  It has reached astounding levels that I thought impossible before the MAGA honey wagon rolled across America. >

He seems awfully trust worthy. So believe what he says for sure! >

God this is heartbreaking. Telling that poor veteran to panhandle for money to put down and cremate his best friend. This is enough of the human race for me tonight. >

I don’t believe him. >

wtf did I just read >

At this point, why aren't people just inundating him with outlandish claims that he should confirm or deny? >

Thanks Republicans! >

God he's like a turbo Trump >

Man lies his entire life.. but this one is supposed to be believed... >

I'm sure he denies EVERYTHING that is said about him. >

When a proven compulsive liar denies anything it doesn’t mean much. >

With all the lies this guy has made, you could make up literally anything, and him denying it would make it more believable that it did in fact happen. >

I he denies it that means he did it with 100% certainty.  There has never been a truthful sentence out of this guys mouth. >

Republicans already gutted the ethics committee, but they try to assure the public that he will be investigated by the ethics committee. 
All Republican Congressmen are complicit with George Santos' criminal activity and fraud. Now Santos is in charge of "Small Business" AND! "Science, space & technology". Goodbye to money going to those programs. >

He is nothing but a liar 🤥, can’t believe anything he says, liars don’t know how to tell the truth >

He is. Complete phony >

George Santos earned the Purple Heart in World War II He dropped both nukes, single handedly bringing the war to an end. So he deserves veterans money.
Also George Santos is a world renown brain surgeon who removed the dogs tumor using ordinary garden tools and today the dog just graduated high school with honors.
"Nothing is impossible for George Santos" - Chuck Norris >

This guy is such garbage.   So frustrating that we get fools like these >

At this point I would not be surprised if he’s literally stolen candy from a baby
