context: Now he can collect a government paycheck while doing nothing. >
  
  I dunno, better that than collecting a government paycheck to fuck us all over in those committees. 
  I'd still rather not he get paid at all from our taxes, but you know. Progress. Baby steps. >
  
  Yeah he would do nothing but harm if he actually did anything >
  
  It's been a scam the whole time to get that sweet sweet congressional retirement pay. >
  
  If he somehow gets kicked from the House they need to figure out how to not give him that. I will be very disappointed with my tax $ paying him the rest of his life >
  
  He would have had to serve 5 year’s minimum I believe to be eligible. >
  
  I'd like him to serve 5 years minimum elsewhere >
  
  
  Santos called himself a “distraction.”
  
  As if House Republicans have a coherent agenda. >
  
  Now step down from Congress. >
  
  He's hoping to fly under the radar long enough to survive the scandal. Don't fall for it. >
  
  I don't think he can clear the background hurdles in order to have access to confidential information for those assignments. >
  
  Well, it’s inappropriate for the king to serve on a House committee. >
  
  King? I thought Santos was a Queen? >
  
  Why not both? >
  
  All hail the King of Queens >
  
  As somebody who is very pro UBI and whatnot, I kinda don't hate that side of the grift that he's pulling. I do hate the lying to his constituents and damage he could have done policy wise. >
  
  Is George Santos even his real name? >
  
  It’s whatever the FS B assigns him. >
  
  This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 84%. (I'm a bot)
  
  
  Rep. George Santos is stepping down from his committee assignments, he informed House GOP colleagues on Tuesday in a conference meeting.
  The House GOP Steering Committee, the panel of Republican leaders who assign committees, had assigned Santos to the Small Business Committee and the Science, Space and Technology Committee earlier this month.
  The Speaker said the spots initially set aside for Santos could be filled "On a temporary basis," adding that Santos will "Be able to get committees back" once he is cleared.

  That George Santos is a classy guy. /S >
  
  Republican image management continues with full media complicity… >
  
  To be fair he's already President of Earth, so these committee assignments were below his pay grade. >
  
  “We’ll give you all the answers to everything you’re asking for.”
  You see, I was just a kid from the Bronx with big dreams who worked undercover at Goldman Sachs and Citigroup, so of course there’s no record of me working there.  
  Yes, I embellished a little on my resume.  Who doesn’t?  And yes, at times, I would go by the name Anthony Devolder, or a Brazilian Drag Queen, but who doesn’t go by two or three names?  You see, when the Clerk called “Santos” on McCarthy’s 15th round of voting, I didn’t answer because, you know, my three different names.
  Yes, I aspired to be Miss Gay Rio de Janeiro.  And yes, I’m openly gay and also voted for Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay Bill”.  Nothing hypocritical about that.  
  Yes, I’ve received a lot of money from unknown sources.  And, oops, I did it again, saying that money was a personal loan from myself, but no, I’ve amended the FEC report once, twice, and now it’s a little confusing.
  And back in my days in Brazil, I committed a little check fraud but it was for the shoes. 
  And I don’t have time to go into all of my other embellishments.  I’m just a guy who will do or say anything.  And the Republican Party has been just great, welcoming me and all of my lies with open arms. >
  
  Just buying time so McCarthy doesn’t have to remove him fully saying that santos couldn’t do anything while The justice department lets the investigation drag on. They still have his vote and his seat for the majority.
