"George Santos: From Expulsion to Congressional Run and State of the Union Drama"

Former GOP Rep. George Santos, who was expelled from the House and is facing federal charges, announced his bid to challenge Republican congressman Nick LaLota in New York's 1st District. Santos, who made the announcement during President Biden's State of the Union address, faces steep odds in the June primary. LaLota quickly responded, calling Santos a "pathological liar" and expressing his intention to beat him in the primary. A crowded field of Democrats is also vying for the seat, which is rated Lean Republican. Santos, who has pleaded not guilty to federal charges, is the sixth lawmaker ever to be expelled from the chamber.
