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?"

look folks, I'm really sorry, I know you all love Santos but, based on his parents' nationality, I reserve the right to claim him for Brazil

he's all ours, our beautiful baby it-girl, you can't have him, end of story

essa gracinha de menino é o orgulho do Brasil!

Stan a messy queen that grifts right-wing hogs.

Literally the gayest thing he's done in his life.

I once called him the Gay Pete Buttigieg to my partner and I think it's pretty apt

He's the straight Ted Cruz

No I won't explain

He has to be bi, right? Like, why would a gay man be subbing to woman's only fans and getting dick ratings from her?

Love our bisexual congressman with mental health issues 💞

Watching Santos is a delight. It's like if the establishment just took the mask off and and danced naked around Congress while shitting himself.

That makes me think of the Randy Newman song Pants and its verbal riff - Gonna take off my pants.

I can't believe he didn't title it Gonna Take Off My Pants. Oh, well - it's an imperfect world.

Saying stuff like this is what got Madison Cawthorn executed.

He is great. He's terrible but he is also briliant
