https://www.yahoo.com/news/rep-george-santos-thanked-lawmaker-135107917.html"It was great to sit down & discuss the concerns that were addressed in the letter he brought in," Santos wrote.
But just 50 minutes later, Lafazan responded on Twitter, accusing Santos of mischaracterizing the nature of the meeting, which he said was actually a protest.
"Let's be very clear: I did not 'stop by' your office," Lafazon wrote. "I hosted a protest *outside* your office calling on you to resign, and then hand-delivered you a letter to stop wasting police resources."
The local lawmaker said that the lie did not come as a surprise, adding that he believed Santos is "very good" at distorting the truth.

Walk into George Santos office and piss all over his desk and when he goes to the press and complains about it just call him a liar and no one will believe him.
