George Santos will be removed from Congress if he broke campaign finance laws, Comer says

Santos faces a slew of investigations into his finances after a number of unusual expenses were discovered on his campaign filings for the midterm cycle, prompting some Democrats to file a complaint to the House Ethics Committee. However, the freshman lawmaker has maintained that he has not committed any wrongdoing."He's a bad guy," Comer told CNN on Sunday."It's not up to me or any other member of Congress to determine whether he can be kicked out for lying.

However, one neighbor said Santos himself was living at the home during that time period, with two others telling the outlet they had seen the congressman and his significant other frequently coming and going from the residence. If found to be true, Santos could be guilty of violating finance rules that prohibit candidates from using campaign funds for personal expenses.

Several Democrats, and even a handful of Republicans, have denounced Santos for this conduct, as well as for admitting to fabricating several details about his professional background while running for office. A group of New York Republicans urged Santos to step down during a press conference last week, joining their Democratic counterparts who have hurled criticisms at the freshman lawmaker since last month.
