Of course he won't resign. This is the best paying job he's ever had!

[jennyflora]

He won’t resign! This is the first real job he has ever had and I am certain he has no problem being on no comitees, he wants that paycheck!

[BigBoogookie]

1:45 "...where Santos once lived with his late mother..." Since she died twice, shouldn't she be his "late, late mother"?

"Catch me if you can" the 2023 version

What an embarrassment! Since he will NOT resign; LOCK him up for fraud. 🤬

[brandondacus]

How is all these politicians keep breaking the laws and NO ONE goes to jail or at least held accountable?

[timdoggy]

He fits right in with the reputation party

[Naturedrawn]

Who is paying this guy? Really. The GOP committee in his district literally told him he is not wanted in the party and he is a disgrace. What kind of person would do this if not for a financial benefit.

I will never vote Republican ever again in my life.

When George Santos visited us here ... Down Under ... he was able to speak in all 300 Indigenous Languages.

He stole the money….wake up people….he is a big liar….

[billysmether]

Only the Republican's would elect a joke like this!!

[judyandrews]

Brazil please file criminal charges against Santos. Request he return to Brazil to face charges.

I saw our fresh water crocodiles, whip lash through the waters, trying to get away from George Santos.

[outermarker]

Santos is so effortlessly, unreservedly and unrepentantly unethical it's almost impressive

[williamcanfor]

Santos is refusing to resign because he has the support of McCartney who is telling him not to resign.

[mariarivera]

Yeah McCarthy is dealing with it so well that he actually assigned him committee

[vogparis]

Santos should be awarded an Oscar as the best con artist of the past 50 years.

[lilbuddhapct]

Why would he resign? This is the best paying job he’s ever had. 😅😅😅😅

Who is backing George Santos financially, why he feels so comfortable being defiant in the name of helping people. This is joke that will go down in history. How can the American people have any respect or vote for these people in Congress.
