George Santos claimed he produced Spiderman Musical
-
Man, oh man, George Santos is just the gift that keeps on giving. Now, come to find out, he lied to donors and said that he was one of the producers of the Broadway musical Spiderman: Turn Off the Dark.
So, he's now been caught lying about:
-
His actual name (he has at least 5-6 aliases, e.g., Anthony Santos, George Devolder, Anthony Zabrovsky and George Anthony Santos-Devolder, and Anthony Devolder).
-
Faking a Jewish heritage (He's not Jewish; he now claims only to be "Jew-ish").
-
Claiming his grandparents fled the Holocaust (They did not).
-
Claiming his grandparents were from the Ukraine (They were born and raised in Brazil).
-
Claiming his mother was the first female executive at a financial institution (She was a cleaning lady and nurse).
-
Claiming his mother was in the South Tower of the Twin Towers on 9/11 (She was verifiably in Brazil at the time).
-
Claiming his mother died of 9/11 induced breast cancer a couple years after 9/11 (She died in 2016).
-
His early education (He never went to Horace Mann for prep school).
-
His college education (He never went to Baruch College or any other college. He has no college-level degree).
-
Being a volleyball champion while at Baruch College (He never went there; he never played there).
-
That he worked for Goldman Sachs (They'd never heard of him).
-
That he worked for Citigroup (They'd never heard of him).
-
That he never committed a crime (Brazil has reopened its case involving him having stolen his mother's patients' checkbooks, now that Brazil can locate him in the US).
-
That he's the survivor of an assassination attempt (No record has been produced that supports someone having tried to kill him).
-
That four of his employees had died in the Pulse Nightclub shooting (He couldn't name a single victim and has since retracted this lie).
-
That he did not perform as a drag queen named Kitara while in Brazil (The LGBTQ community in Brazil has come forward with photographic and video records of him performing drag).
-
Claims to have ran an official animal charity called Friends of Pets United (No such charitable organization has been registered anywhere).
-
As an unofficial charity, Santos (via Friends of Pets United) swindled a US veteran out of at least $3,000 in a GoFundMe scam set up to raise money to pay for surgery for the veteran's aide dog (Records of the GoFundMe account exist and GoFundMe reports that Santos email addresses have been banned by their service).
-
He claims to have survived having a brain tumor (Yet no one recalls him ever being sick).
-
He claims his family is rich because of real estate holdings (No one can locate any real estate holdings for his family. The only property other than his current residence reported to be owned by Santos on his financial disclosures is an apartment in Rio).
-
He claimed that his campaign was funded by a $700,000 loan from himself (His attorneys have amended his election disclosures to withdraw this loan claim; however, where the money came from since it wasn't a personal loan has not been explained. He's under FEC investigation now).
-
He worked at Harbor City Capital, which was declared a Ponzi Scheme by the SEC (And yet he demanded that Republicans seat him on a financial committee in Congress, which thankfully they refused).
-
He has ties to Russian oligarchs, mobsters, and human traffickers.
If McCarthy had been telling the truth when he said that he wasn't going to seat certain people on committees because "integrity matters," then he should never have seated Santos on TWO committees. Yes, Santos has "voluntarily" stepped down from his committees, but that's likely because they took him into the backroom and explained to him that he's going to lose them anyway the moment he's under Federal indictment. If he didn't step down now, they weren't going to help him then when that happens.
Frankly, I think the GOP just wishes that he'd sit the fuck down and never say another word for the next two years.

Are you seriously gonna die on this hill when you voted for the biggest liar in Washington DC?
No one can compete with the Liar-In-Chief Joe Biden.
-
@raphjd Perhaps this is my total and utter ignorance on the situation given that I live in Canada and thus do not really follow US politics, but can you give me some examples of what you speak?
Please provide as much information and/or sources as you can. I'm honestly curious to know more about your claims. I have heard many people bash Joe Biden for many a things, but never anyone who could actually back it with actual facts instead of just theories or opinions, and I legitimately do not know a whole hell of a lot on that topic.
-
Here are some you can look up;
-
Beau Biden (his eldest son) didn't die in Iraq. He died from brain cancer, 6 years after he was in Iraq.

It's easiest if you just search on JOE BIDEN'S LIES.
Obviously, the liberal media will downplay the number and substance of the lies, but even there you will find a lot of them.
-
@hubrys You've made me feel sorry for you.
Genuine pity.
YOU PERSONALLY are the victim of much, much, much, bigger liars & lies.
Like an autist watching the paint dry, unable to handle reality, you retreat to your Santos corner & write a list.
@MrMazda Like Hillary, the question is when doesn't Joe Biden lie? In the 1980s and 1990s, he was most famous for having skated through college on plagiarism. And for lifting others' speeches & zingers, repeating them straight-up like they were his own & people hadn't heard them days earlier. Comedians made fun of him nonstop. But nowadays, just put on the TV and watch him talk. "I brought gas prices down" - when they're nearly double Trump's. "If you take these vaxx you won't get infected". Biden would be Orwellian, if he weren't so crude & stupid. P.S. Many a little girl joining him for some photo op, has felt sexually abused by him ie. fondled or sniffed creepily in public.

Oh, the Whataboutism is strong with the conservative idiots in this post.
Why can't you just admit that Santos is an embarrassment to your party? Doing so doesn't mean other people haven't ALSO lied. But you can't even bring yourself to admit Santos is a comical-level liar.
Which just goes to show, you guys will support anyone so long as the correct letter is after his name (R).
-
Is "whataboutism" all you have to justify your voting for the nation's biggest professional liar?
Why are you so fixated on Santos, while ignoring the massive list of lies Biden tells?
It goes to show that you idiot liberals will support anyone as long as they have an D after their name.
BTW, even AOC infamously claimed to be jewish. It's where that infamous photo meme came from of her doing the stereotypical jewish pose.
-
@raphjd "Whataboutism" is what midwits say when confronted with truth, perspective, context.
Example.
Midwit: "My neighbor had a wood fire on Christmas! Their carbon footprint is killing the planet!"
Truth-teller: "Even if CO2 mattered, what about your weekly private jet trips?"
Piercing questions, shutting up a midwit, often begin with "What about?" It's just grammar.
So the midwit goes "I are super smart person, I can say whataboutism as I plug my ears to you lalalalallalallalalalalalala!!!"

Here's why your Whataboutism doesn't work against me: I'm not a fan of Joe Biden. I'm not a fan of Hillary Clinton. I'm even not a fan of AOC.
All of the litany of people you keep throwing in my face....I'm not a fan of. Your argument fails. This discussion isn't about all liars; this post is about George Santos.
And none of you conservatives can bring yourself to admit how awful he is.
-
-
@hubrys Lie alert! I routinely say Santos is awful - and you've seen it before.
So here you are obsessively tracking the obscure lies of some small politician - while yourself lying!
HAHAHAHAHahahaha!
Here's some whataboutism - What about your lies?
-
@raphjd and @blablarg18, you claim not to be defenders of Santos, yet here you are defending him. Methinks the lady doth protest too much. No one made you participate in this thread. YOU chose to come here and post defenses and deflections from Santos. You can't choose to do that and then pretend to be ambivalent on Santos.
-
If you say so, dearie.
Pointing out that Santos has nothing on the massive list of liars on your side isn't me defending him. I am just pointing out that while you can point at Santos, we can point at a large number of liars.
I would have thought that a lawyer would have been able to understand that.
Also, how would you be able to stalk me on the internet, as you threatened previously, if you can't connect the dots?

When have I ever threatened to stalk you on the Internet? One, I don't believe in doxxing. And two, I don't care enough about you to think about you, good or ill, when I'm not literally staring at this website.
