'Santos has become a punchline in the national media, but these campaign finance violations are no joke,' campaignlegal's g_wieandnotes as four campaign finance and ethics complaints are lodged against GOP Rep. George Santos.

"focuses on a purported $700,000 personal loan that he made to his campaign that the group says either came from a 'shell company' or was a prohibited corporate contribution."

;&#x201cExclu: @StopBigMoney is filing *three* complaints against GOP Rep. George Santos of New York today.\n\nOne w/ FEC, one with OCE, and one with DOJ.\n\nAdds to existing complaints from @CampaignLegal and @American_Bridge.\nhttps://t.co/2Oej5IawoQ;&#x201d"His actions are not only unethical, but illegal, and call into question his ability to serve," Muller added.

"All this takes place amid Santos' compulsive lying about his entire background—and a pattern of serious reporting problems the FEC already knows about, including excessive contributions. The FEC sent the Santos campaign 20 letters in the 2022 cycle about these," CLC senior researcher Roger G.

CampaignLegal Just q's: 1 Will Brazil provide copy of Santos Devolder (SD) Brazilian Birth Certificate w/ Interpol arrest warrant? 2 If not, will Brazil's Interpol Arrest Warrant specify whether SD is a Brazilian Citizen (as part of extradition)? 3 Does SD own a million condo in Rio, Brasil?
