George Santos faces formal complaint demanding ethics investigation

Embattled Long Island Congressman-elect George Santos arrived in Washington to take the oath of office Tuesday, but he faced a new threat -- a formal complaint demanding a House ethics investigation of his campaign. CBS2 political reporter Marcia Kramer has the latest.

I spoke with George Santos a couple years ago. Real nice guy. It was an honor to shake the hand of the first man on the moon.

[Sunday_Morning]

Reporters need to start asking Santos about where did the money for his campaign came from?

[eddiearmijo]

Who the hell would be an aid to George Santos. Background checks for anyone who take the job.

[maryelizabeth]

And we thought Walker and Oz were bad picks. Jesus, what was the GOP thinking?

[gabrielguerro]

If you lie in a job application they fire you. And this guy made it all way up there, this is disgusting

[Helvetica_Scenario]

This guy isn't just a liar and a fraud, he's also a wanted criminal in his native country. How isn't this enough to remove him from his position?

[raythe]

He should be convicted and have to pay the cost of running another

[vdub]

He should be on admin leave until this is all sorted. He should not be receiving any money or representing any constituents until his name is cleared.

He's gonna run. If Brazil finds him guilty it's 5 years in jail. And it sounds like Brazil is already on it.

[jamesfrazier]

The fact that this man hasn't resigned yet is a disgrace

[angeldelcourt]

How do you perform an ethics investigation on someone that has none?

[steelersluv]

This man won 3 Heismen Trophies, Coach 2 NFL teams to a superbowl, is an ordained minister, and created the masters golf tournament. How can you not trust this guy?

[niclewis]

If he cared at all about the Constituents he'd bow out. Follow the money it's always about the money with these fraudsters. This will follow Santos for the rest of his life.

[ekmickley]

COWARDLY Behavior..I hope that he is extradicted to Brazil...NY district needs to file class-action suit - he defrauded them of their votes...

[MrBishop]

Santos votes for McCarthy, meanwhile McCarthy has sworn to gut the House Ethics committee ....

[mitzimarquez]

Glad to hear that he will be held accountable.

[seandonaghy]

Santos is dead easy to keep track of: just follow the stench.

[tubruton]

From being the first man to walk on Mars to an ethics investigation. Sad!

[lucy]

He’s going to be the loneliest congressman in DC. He will be avoided like the plague.

George Santos stated that he is Pele’s illegitimate son. He is putting a claim on Pele’s estate. He said his mother had a fling with the soccer legend sometime in the 1960’s, 20 years before he was born.
