    ....and then there are the creeps that see nothing but votes and are not going to vote to toss georgie---cause they have a four seat majority----it's an allocation----no it is politics of the worst kind

    The line spoken by Lady Macbeth in Shakespeare’s play, Macbeth, "out damned spot‘ comes to mind

    There were 311 votes to remove Santos, with 114 voting against and two voting present. Santos grabbed his coat and left the floor before the vote had concluded. One hundred and five Republicans voted to boot Santos, and 112 voted for him to remain. Reps. Bobby Scott of Virginia and Nikema Williams of Georgia were the only two Democrats to vote against expelling Santos.

    When asked for his reaction following the result, Santos said, “It’s over. What reaction?” Asked if he would use his privileges as a former congressman to visit the House floor in the future, he replied, “To hell with this place.”
    I'm not sure who is sicker---georgie or those who tried to protect him to protect the rino vote---including mr speaker himself.

    Kudos for the Republicans who acted ethically.

    They changed the locks on his office and took down his name plate right after the vote.

    Now let's see if the Democrats will step up and oust the crook known as Mendez.

    They seem to be silent on that problem

    Correct---plus a few other perks----but all are subject to being withdrawn by the House. On a good note---the toad does not qualify for a pension

    santos is thinking about his future:

    The New York Republican suggested that his future might include a memoir or a reality television show.
    If anyone would be sick enough to buy a book of santos' lies or watch a tragic comedy on "reality" TV---they need an intervention

    May his future hold a long and much deserved respite in a Federal Prison
