On Thursday, we watched as the House Ethics Committee completed its investigation into George Santos, concluding that there was “substantial evidence” that the New York congressman engaged in criminal activity, but they didn’t conclude with a recommendation that he should be removed from office. At the time, I wondered if Santos had just bought himself a lengthy reprieve while the full GOP caucus pored over the results. But that question seemed to be resolved yesterday afternoon when Ethics Committee Chairman Michael Guest determined that he had seen enough. He filed a motion to expel Santos and it could be acted on as soon as the rest of the chamber returns from the Thanksgiving break. Santos has already survived two attempts to remove him from office, but it’s looking more and more like he won’t make it through this one. (National Review)Read More
