George Santos: From Onetime Allies to Criminal Charges and Expulsion Push

Six Republican House members from New York are seeking to expel Representative George Santos, who is facing federal charges of defrauding donors and lying about campaign finances. The group of freshmen lawmakers aims to introduce an expulsion resolution to remove Santos, hoping to rid themselves and their party of a political liability ahead of next year's elections. Expulsion requires a two-thirds supermajority, making it uncertain if the move is merely a messaging exercise or a serious attempt to remove Santos.
