"George Santos Faces Imminent Expulsion Vote as Outrage Grows"

Republican House speaker Mike Johnson announced that the House will vote on whether to expel George Santos on Thursday, leaving it up to lawmakers to decide whether the New York congressman should be removed from office for embellishing his résumé and allegedly breaking federal law. A whip count by Politico indicates that there is enough support among Republicans to pass the expulsion motion. Santos, who has been indicted on federal fraud charges and found to have committed campaign finance violations, has insisted that he will not resign. Meanwhile, Johnson also confirmed that the GOP will continue its impeachment investigation into President Joe Biden, focusing on alleged corruption.
