George Santos, Calling Himself Mary Magdalene of Congress, Knows He's Done - Mother Jones

Santos [had] a grievance-filled, three-hour appearance on X Spaces.

There's no transcript and every site quoted only what they wanted to. I used two articles and a tweet to make this...

"I was, as we joke around a lot in my circles were like, ‘Oh my God, you were the It girl, everybody wanted you,’ until nobody wanted me. Within the ranks of the United States Congress, there's felons galore. There's people with all sorts of shiesty backgrounds and all of a sudden George Santos is the Mary Magdalene of United States Congress.

I have colleagues who are more worried about getting drunk every night with the next lobbyists that they're going to screw and pretend like none of us know what's going on and sell off the American people.

Not show up to vote because they're too hungover or whatever the reason is, or not show up to vote at all and just give their card out like fucking candy for someone else to vote for them. This shit happens every single week. Where are the ethics investigations?"
