In Santos’s district, reactions to brazen lies remain mixed: ‘I might let him slide’

In the New York Republican’s district, some people defend the serial fibber, while others are adamant George Santos must quit

It was only after George Santos was elected to Congress that the news broke: the New York Republican had told lies during his campaign.

But these weren’t just little lies, or white lies. Santos appears to have lied brazenly, with abandon, about almost everything it’s possible to lie about: his career, his education, his faith, his relationships, his finances, 9/11.
