The reply to the query of who posted bail for Rep. Santos could possibly be each very attention-grabbing and telling. If anyone inside the Republican Social gathering posted bail for Santos that will point out that they’re planning on doing nothing to do away with the indicted congressman as a result of they worth his vote greater than they worth the Home.
George Santos is at present going through 13 federal costs, together with seven costs of wire fraud, three costs of cash laundering, one rely of theft of public funds, and two counts of creating false statements to the Home of Representatives.
As quickly as Kevin McCarthy linked himself, and by extension the Republican Social gathering to Santos, this type of scenario was certain to occur.
If a high-profile donor bailed out Santos that will elevate extra questions than solutions. How deep does the George Santos corruption run inside the Republican Social gathering? The nation may get its first perception into a solution on Friday.
