George SantosĀ is throwing in the towel on his attempt to get re-elected back to Congress, after raising a devastating zero dollars and zero cents in the first quarter of 2024.

The serial fabulist got caught telling so many exaggerations, misrepresentations, and flat-out lies thatĀ my attempt in January 2023Ā to chronicle them barely lasted a day before it was outdated. He was finallyĀ expelledĀ from Congress in December 2023 after a damning Ethics Committee report and one of his fellow Republican congressmen accused Santos ofĀ defraudingĀ him ā€“ and even hisĀ mother.

AĀ special electionĀ in February for Santosā€™ replacement in NY-3 was won by DemocratĀ Tom Suozzi, but Santos couldnā€™t stay out of the spotlight,Ā crashingĀ the State of the Union address in March, insisting on taking advantage of the floor privileges afforded to former members of Congress, although he was not allowed toĀ take up a prime seat.

      See now. Itā€™s funny that you say that because George actually had raised 43.7 million in campaign funds by selling specifically chocolate bars. Unfortunately, just as he was taking the money to the bank, he was robbed by a traveling band of Jewish Nazi members of Hezbollah sent by Joe Biden.
