fabricated large parts of his resume and even his very identity, it seemed virtually inevitable he would take a seat in Congress next month.
That may still be the case. But on Tuesday, Nick LaLota—a fellow Republican who just won a congressional seat on Long Island to the east of the New York district Santos won—called for a probe of his would-be colleague. “I have heard from countless Long Islanders how deeply troubled they are by the headlines surrounding George Santos,” LaLota said in a statement. The Republican went on to call for “a full investigation by the House ethics committee and, if necessary, law enforcement” of Santos.
If the walls are closing in on Santos—or at least beginning to—his mind-boggling attempt at issuing a mea culpa this week may be part of the reason why.that his biography was a sham. Still, he tried—painfully—to cling to some element of dignity, claiming that telling voters he worked at Citigroup, for instance, when he never did so was not a lie but just a poor choice of words.
