  That just makes him.... smart....?
context: Santos, who in 2020 reported holding no assets and a salary of $55,000 from a vice president position at a financial company called LinkBridge, appears to have suddenly come into substantial wealth, claiming a net worth of as much as $11.5 million on his 2022 financial disclosure
  
  We are on the “find out” phase of the George Santos campaign. This is one part of the his troubles with the finances. Next is his non profit company and the other one is if he a US citizen. 
  The US citizen question is interesting because the constitution requires one to be a citizen for a minimum of seven years to be eligible for the house. The timelines don’t match if he acquired the citizenship through green card process.
  Edit: he is under federal investigation now as per CNN >
  
  If he's not and he's elected, basically there's no check if a candidate is even qualified to run for the House. Any ole Russian asset can just come out and run for a national office in the USA. >
  
  They don’t need to run actual Russians to have Russian assets. Tulsi and shit face piss head Rand Paul are good examples. >
  
  "Santos claims his windfall is mostly due to the untimely passing of a so-called 'Great Uncle Tim' who, Santos claims, invented the Slip n' Slide during a 1963 Rio-area orgy." >
  
  Robert Carrier, an upholsterer, invented the Slip n Slide in the summer of 1960. >
  
  Santos, you lyin' sonuvabitch! >
  
  Andrew Intrater, cousin and money-manager to the sanctioned Russian oligarch Viktor Vekselberg, who contributed a combined $80,000 to the PAC, per state records. Intrater and his wife were also two of the largest donors to both Zeldin and Santos
  Russian money all over the GOP
  No wonder they are so pro Russia, just like their dear leader. 
  How many more russia backed GOP can be found in Congress? >
  
  Russians get republicans the house majority, republicans refuse to fund Ukraine. It’s a pretty easy line to draw >
  
  
  “If I wished to illegally fund a campaign and hide it, what I would do is run the money through a dummy corporation, then to a dark money group that supports the campaign. But if I was not that up on things, or a little lazy, I might … set up the dummy corporation, say it’s in the name of the candidate, then have the candidate pay himself the money and give it to the campaign,” Libowitz said. “This isn’t to say that this is clearly an illegal pass-through donation scheme, because we don’t know the full picture yet—but if it were one, this is what it would look like.” >
  
  Guys, I’m starting to get the feeling this guy might not be on the up and up. >
  
  I had the same feeling about that Hitler guy. Around January 1945 I realized he was a bad egg! >
  
  Still on the fence about Stalin though. >
  
  Yeah. He doesn't seem to hang out with any bad eggs. Although, I keep thinking he has dodgy friends, but when I look at the pictures again they aren't there anymore...must be my imagination >
  
  Follow the money and there will be finger prints of a Russian oligarch. 2nd NY republican representative. >
  
  I'd argue just like everything else that the loans are also a lie and that money never existed. >
  
  i hope the daily beast will also look into boeberts finances. she was an assistant manager at mcdonald’s and a high school drop out raised on welfare. why does she now have millions? >
  
  Keep digging, if ones he was willing to admit were that bad, he's hiding a lot worse stuff. >
  
  Well surprise, surprise, surprise! >
  
  It's never the reprehensible deeds, it's the money that trips people up. >
  
  I honestly think he is an experiment to see how much they can get away with.
  All the investigations will be slow rolled when the Republicans take control of the house. They will hope that this is all forgotten by 2024, so they can do it all over again with larger numbers of candidates.
  Once they get their supporters to accept paid for candidates, it will be easy for to manipulate the base. >
  
  This dude and his bullshit campaign is going to be studied for decades >
  
  And yet will be forgotten by the next election. >
  
  He is not qualified to represent the GOP as he clearly lacks the skill to reach the remotely plausible deniable level of money flow obfuscation. >
  
  A lying politician may have done something illegal???
  No way! /s
