New York, January 18 (RHC)-- The New York Times has revealed that some Republican insiders knew over a year ago that then-Republican congressional candidate — and now-congressmember — George Santos had made up much of his résumé, including his educational background, employment history and religion

Santos’s lies were exposed when his campaign did a routine background report on him, but the findings were not made public.  During his run, Santos would go on to pick up key endorsements, including Kevin McCarthy, who is now the House speaker. 

Earlier this week, New York Republican Congressmember Nick LaLota called on the Department of Justice and the Federal Elections Commission to freeze any money left in Santos’s campaign account due to fraudulent activity. 

It recently came to light that one of Santos’s aides impersonated Kevin McCarthy’s chief of staff in fundraising efforts.  On Monday, McCarthy admitted he “always had a few questions” about Santos, but McCarthy has so far refused to back calls for Santos to resign.
