Rep. George Santos (R-NY), who has refused to resign from Congress amid a second round of federal indictments, took to X on Wednesday to attack the handful of Republicans who introduced a resolution to expel him from the House of Representatives — and warn that he could ruin their careers over it.

"I look very much forward to seeing the anti American attempt by WEAK RINO’s to oust me without giving me my right to Due process," wrote Santos, who soon after being elected was exposed for having lied about almost every aspect of his personal background from his education to his work history. "Remember if I’m in fact ousted fascism will officially be well and alive in the United States of America and these members will be the champions of it."

"I do want to remind my dear colleagues who all but one have deep long troubling careers in politics that I will have a lot of time on my hands to return the favor in the most expedient fashion mankind has ever seen," he continued. "I’m done with the hypocrisy and the projection coming from the same individuals for the last 10 months! #PolitcalWarfare does not scare me, I find my strength in God and with him in my life all is possible."

Santos was already indicted earlier this year on charges that he misrepresented how he was spending donors' money, fraudulently obtained public unemployment benefits, and lied to Congress.

1. The Great and Powerful Santos??? Seriously??

[muriel_volestrangler]

10. He's a justice in the Supreme Court. He told me so himself. (nt)

[NoMoreRepugs]

33. Good one - first smile of the morning.

[RocRizzo55]

43. Funny, he told me that he is above the Supreme Court

He is the Uber Supreme Court. According to him.

[SomewhereInTheMiddle]

80. The Supremer Court?

No, man! The Supremest Court!!!

[iluvtennis]

59. And an NCAA Division 1 volleyball champion 🥺. n/t

[Comfortably_Numb]

2. And he can put a hurt on them because he's an eleventy level black belt and card carrying ninja.

[underpants]

3. He's going to use his standing to ruin their reputations?

[LittleGirl]

54. Right, lol! Nt

[underpants]

65. Santos is the gift that keeps on giving.

[LittleGirl]

69. The GOP always finds the lowest of the low

To represent them. It’s getting predictable.
It was the NY GOP that didn’t vet him. Liars gotta lie.

[usaf-vet]

73. Yup govern by threat and intimidation. It's all any of them know. Before we know it I wouldn't.....

..... be surprised if someone gets knifed in the chamber.

[SWBTATTReg]

4. How classy can one be? At least, republicans bought this on themselves.

Voters who voted this thug into office don't really deserve this sort of representation (but they did vote him in). When will voters start seeing the republicans for what they really are, that they really don't care about the voters themselves, but to enrich themselves at voter expense?

[BComplex]

22. I recommend this post!

[agingdem]

42. George Santos is the Republican Party...

psycho liar George wants to destroy the toxic dung heap he sits atop…ok

[calimary]

51. I'd tell him "have at it, dude!"

Hey, let him pile onto all the other shit they’re dealing with. It might just flatten them.

Democrats should take full advantage to paint these assholes as bumbling incompetents who do not deserve to lead. They’re too busy fighting over power positions to bother with what YOU need, America.

[SWBTATTReg]

87. Amend!

[tanyev]

5. LOLOL. Are we sure he wasn't fathered by Trump?

I guess there's not enough random capitalization in those tweets to have Trump DNA.

[relayerbob]

37. THAT'S IT!!!!!

Quick, someone, measure his hand size.

[Attilatheblond]

39. YOMANK

[MontanaMama]

44. He's doughy enough to be a tRump.

[Lonestarblue]

6. He either belongs in jail or a psycho ward.

But Republicans will not expel him because the governor would appoint a Democrat to replace him. Santos will only leave the House with next year’s election or to go to a jail cell.

[TheRickles]

7. Maybe he'll vote for Hakeem Jeffries for Speaker. That'll really own the libs. Or something.

[FakeNoose]

8. This creep was never the "duly elected" Representative he claims to be

When he presented his initial petition of candidacy for the election, he was required to submit a list of 1,000 signatures of voters living in his district. That's the law and every new candidate is required to do it.

Somehow his list of voter signatures has never been examined to see if they are real or plagiarized. I'll bet dollars to doughnuts that that list contains many fakes. Perhaps the entire list is as fake as he is.

[pwb]

9. Go away you fat ass twerp.

Pukes don't scare anybody physically. Look at you?

[TexasTowelie]

11. I imagine that Santos will have plenty of time to be a sleuth

from his prison cell.

[4lbs]

12. LOL. Santos "ruin" them?

What's he gonna use?

Money he claims to have, but doesn't really?

A heritage he claims but has been shown to be really false?

A power and standing he claims, but doesn't have, especially now that his "friend" McCarthy is gone from power?

The "Truth" after having been shown to have lied many times?

So, Georgey boy, what you gonna do? Call the Ghostbusters?

[peppertree]

64. Juju, no doubt

Brazilians are big believers in macumba - black magic.

Women often use it against each other, over perceived slights or just plain envy.

Men might use it out of rivalry, or because they felt wronged (typically, by paying a woman to do it - since they're considered more adept at these things).

[oldsoftie]

13. I see he's going with the "RINOs" & "God" routine.

Just like a Trumper.

[PatSeg]

28. And accuses his adversaries

of being fascists, exactly what a fascist would do. Very Trumpian*.


*I just realized that "Trumpian" is now a word at least according to spellcheck, Wikipedia, and Dictionary.com. The man has certainly left his mark, but not necessarily the way he wanted.

[OMGWTF]

72. Look up the word "Trumpery"

It’s the perfect description for TFG.

[Duncanpup]

66. He's almost patriotic like trump

[BumRushDaShow]

14. ...

[sarcasmo]

15. George Santos must have Republican credit card information.

[2naSalit]

83. He copied enough...

CC account numbers to have collected plenty of them!

[ificandream]

95. Or dick pics.

[prodigitalson]

16. Is he gonna steal their credit cards?

[spooky3]

40. He's going to call them and ask if their refrigerator is running. Multiple times. Nt

[progressoid]

85. And then ring their doorbell and run away.

[spooky3]

88. Hee Hee nt

[claudette]

17. Except that

NO ONE is going to believe what a liar says about anyone. Go home, George. No one wants you in Congress.

[lonely bird]

18. Um, George?

Your God said “Thou shall not lie”.

Thus the problem of claiming God supports your actions.

[NBachers]

19. George ain't got shit, but I invite him to start throwing it at them anyway.

[Wonder Why]

20. Isn't he the guy that came down the mountain with the 10 Commandments?

[PJMcK]

21. Santos is a putz

He’s a lying criminal. I’m certain that the targets of his ire are quaking in their boots from these toothless threats. What a wimp.

By the way, when Santos says he’ll have a lot a free time to seek revenge, I doubt that. He’s going to be tied up with his own voluminous legal troubles then he’ll be in prison (hopefully).

Kick his ass out of the Peoples’ House!

[BComplex]

23. Looks to me like he & trump have BOTH "ruined them".

Not that they've noticed.

[Crowman2009]

24. Oh George, don't threaten me with a good time.

[hlthe2b]

25. If he were not so pathetic, I might be able to take this as seiously as I suppose it should be...

But, I'll leave that to the prosecutors, the courts, and Capitol Police--as well as his constituents, who long ago abandoned him, to show their support for his opponents.

[cab67]

26. monarch butterflies make more credible threats

[niyad]

27. Could somebody please post Randy Rainbow's "Life's A F'n Fantasy For Santos"

[Zambero]

29. Santos is no longer an "asset" to the House GOP

They desperately don't want him around as a party poster child next year. He has been propped up as a reliable vote amongst a very narrow majority, but nevertheless indicative of the moral chasm that the Republican party has fallen into. These days Santos has as much political capital as a salted banana slug. I'd guess that the "RINO's" he threatens must realize they have more to fear from formidable Democratic challengers than from the non-existent caricature of a candidate that somehow slipped through tracks during the last mid-term election.

[madashelltoo]

30. This dude has great jokes!

Missed his real calling, comedy.

[Renew Deal]

31. He'll write angry letters from prison

[NCIndie]

32. Of all the liars a among the GOP on Congress, why Santos?

Is there something different about him?

[SouthernDem4ever]

34. Even if what he says is true, no one believes a big liar

so he has no credibility - just like daddy Drump.

[bluescribbler]

35. Bring it on, sucka.

It seems to me like an empty threat.

[relayerbob]

36. LOL. NO one cares, little "man"

Although I wouldn't be surprised if Trump gifted (ie: sold) his kompromat data to Santos for blackmail purposes. He'll have plenty of time in Federal prison.

[Oopsie Daisy]

38. Scooch-over! Let me in... I want to watch this!

[Bayard]

41. Because God smiles on pathetic politicians

Especially the lying, thieving ones.

[Aristus]

45. What a putrid little shit.

I'm surprised they haven't made him the poster boy for the GOP. He's the face of everything sleazy, slimy, unsavory, weak, and squalid about the Republican Party.

[RAB910]

46. He had a tag on Tweet where he asks them to please message him their credit card information

[dalton99a]

47. Behold the almighty George Santos, Defender of the Faith, Drag Queen of the Amazon

[vlyons]

48. Really really hard to give up that grift.

$174,000 per annum and his staff and interns do most of the work.

[OMGWTF]

74. THIS THIS THIS

[catbyte]

49. LOL

[Wounded Bear]

50. Go for it, George!

If you get a few more repubs kicked out of Congress, Dems will take over and some shit will get done.

[Delmette2.0]

52. Okey Dokey. That's fine by me. nt

[Trueblue Texan]

53. This man is a Trump spawn...

...truly dangerous without morals, integrity, or shame. He has studied the master of the con and has learned well that lies take you further, faster than the truth. In the end, justice will be done, but not before he and those like him can create so much damage it'll be near impossible to recover.

[IronLionZion]

55. Sounds Trumpy, Santos should run for president next

[rurallib]

56. As Barack Obama once said "Please proceed"

[pecosbob]

57. He needs the toll-free number for Pathological Liars Anonymous

[PortTack]

58. Please proceed! Unfortunately, they won't expel him any more than they were going to expel boobert

They want that vote irregardless

[aeromanKC]

60. Damnit, where is that battery to put on my shoulder when I need it!!

[mymomwasright]

61. Dip-shit

Twisting the meaning fascism to his own ends

[chia]

[WhiteTara]

[Stuart G]

75. The ..."SHIT POLICE" whom I represent, don't want to have anything to do with George Santos!

94. Former Playboy Playmate George Santos Threatens Colleagues Who Want To Expel Him

New York’s Rep. George Santos, Congress’s only bullfighting organic chemist, just keeps adding to his resume. Not only was he crowned “Sexiest Rabbi in Queens” on Tuesday, but he also netted himself an additional 10 charges in the Eastern District of New York. That brings his tally to 23, or 69 if you run the indictment through three times under your relatives’ names. And you know he will!
