  No no. 1 is illereat and other 5 stuggle with number.

  Right? There's really no background checks on people before they take these offices? Low-level government workers have more hoops to jump through. >
  
  I think the last few years have taught us that our government operates with barely any oversight. The rules are there, they just aren't practiced. >
  
  The oversight is supposed to be the voting public. That's what it means to live in a democracy, you can't keep passing the buck forever, and since we have no king the final responsibility ends up with the voters.
  The problem is that a near-majority of the people doing oversight think that George Santos is perfectly fine. >

  Awful take. First, voters are not responsible for prosecuting crimes committed by politicians in office.
  Second, our districts have been gerrymandered and we have a media apparatus that has abdicated its responsibility to inform the voting public. Not to mention we have one party erecting every barrier they can to prevent people from voting.
  So no. We don't have that oversight because its been marginalized by the very people who we are meant to oversee. >
  
  If only the forefathers thought of and provided an amendment to take back power when the government failed the people. >
  
  If his real name is not George Santos then he lied on the federal forms filed in order for him to run.  Lying to the feds is a crime.  Arrest him and put him behind bars.  That will really test the republican will to ban proxy voting in the House.  Watch how fast that stance crumbles.....  LOL!!!!! >
  
  As a Republican I support your comment.   Boot this asshat now. >
  
  As an American, why do you still vote for republicans >
