It's important to remember that if he had been a Democrat, he would have been pilloried non-stop by every Republican in Congress, and they would have used him to smear the entire party. He would have been the principal subject of every attack ad in the election cycle. He would never have survived in Congress this long. That Republicans would endure him for over a year just shows that the MAGAts are completely morally bankrupt.

NBC News: In a letter sent to colleagues, which was obtained by NBC News, Rep. Max Miller, R-Ohio, said he learned earlier this year that Santos’ campaign “had charged my personal credit card — and the personal card of my Mother — for contribution amounts that exceeded FEC limits. Neither my Mother nor I approved these charges or were aware of them.”
Miller said that he has spent “tens of thousands of dollars” in legal fees dealing with the situation. He went on to say that he has seen a list of 400 people he believes were also over-charged by Santos, including other Republican House members.
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson voted against expulsion, I guess because he likes to see old ladies suffer.

Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti (D-Manorhaven), shared constituents with Santos during his 11-month tenure.
“It’s finally done and the people of the 3rd Congressional District are ready to move on,” Sillitti said. “We need to learn from this experience, make sure it doesn’t happen again, and get back to work for the residents who have been without representation for far too long.”
Assemblyman Charles Lavine (D-Glen Cove), who also overlapped with Santos, praised the expulsion as well.
“I am pleased to see that this pathetic chapter in American legislative history has finally come to an end,” Lavine said. “It has been grotesquely unfair for the people of the Third Congressional District to be represented by someone so morally and ethically bankrupt. I look forward to the near future when the national legislative interests of the people of northern Queens and Nassau County will once again be protected.”

What did the Republican do during his 328 days in office representing New York’s 3rd Congressional District?
An NBC News analysis of Santos’ legislative record shows that he introduced 40 bills or resolutions during his short career; that’s roughly average for a member of Congress, according to Brookings Institution statistics.
The House did not act on any of them, and all died in committee without a vote.
What’s more unusual is that Santos convinced only one of his colleagues to sign on to any of his 40 bills — Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., who backed Santos’ “Defund the CCP on Campus Act of 2023” (referring to the Chinese Communist Party).
Although he didn’t earn the backing of his colleagues on the bulk of his legislation, most of it was aimed at prominent conservative issues such as immigration and the border, stripping funding from the IRS, “draining the swamp” and one bill apparently trolling President Joe Biden, the Executive Mental Competency Protection Act of 2023.
China was by far the biggest focus for the freshman lawmaker; 12 of his bills explicitly targeted the country. He also introduced a constitutional amendment to limit pay for members of Congress and reduce the national debt, though that didn’t get traction either.
Two of his bills were named for pop stars: the Securing Women’s Independence For Today Act of 2023, named for Taylor Swift, and a measure targeting vaccine mandates named for Nicki Minaj. (TMZ reported that Minaj liked a tweet about the bill).
Santos did pass two amendments to other pieces of legislation — one targeting vaccines and the other re-establishing a Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement Office within Immigration and Customs Enforcement. But neither of the bills the amendments were attached to have become law.
The New York Republican didn’t serve on any committees.
Though he was originally named to two smaller, less influential panels — the Small Business Committee and the Science, Space and Tech Committee — he recused himself from those posts not long after entering Congress because of the Ethics Committee’s investigation into him.
Santos did sign on as a co-sponsor for 152 of his colleagues’ bills. Only one of them became law, however, an act creating a commemorative coin to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Marine Corps.
