George Santos was an embarrassment and liability to the Republican Party. I'm happy at least some Republican's had the Integrity to oust Santos. 
Now, It's time for the Democrats to show the same Integrity and do the same and get rid of Menedez.  |
What irks me about Santos is how he was even allowed to be a candidate to represent The Great State of New York in the first place. I can understand the house ethics committee getting involved once an official is elected and been on the job. However, looking at the Committee report much what they reported should have been brought to light long BEFORE he was elected. New Yorkers and our illustrious investigative journalists need to do a lot more due diligence.
The state of U.S. politics it seems candidates aren’t being vetted by journalists and people aren’t considering the candidate's merits, policy, platform, ethics. Only mindless voting just to stick it to the other party out of spite.
As for Menendez I’m still out on that one. I don’t trust any of them any further than I can throw’em. But he was a respected congressman right up until he and his committee questioned why some U.S. oil firms were still working with Russia. The next ya know <poof> he’s accused of being a traitor, peers calling for him to resign and nobody else has continued questioning the companies. I did read some articles protecting the companies, how they had already patched things up, and that it was a mistake and couldn’t understand why Menendez was asking questions.
