TL;DR Summary

Gabrielle Lipsky, the communications director for Rep. George Santos, has resigned following the release of a scathing report by the House Ethics Committee, which found "substantial evidence" that Santos violated federal criminal laws. Santos is facing increased political pressure, with a third expulsion attempt on the horizon. The report revealed that Santos misused campaign funds for personal expenses, including trips to Atlantic City and Las Vegas, cosmetic procedures, and purchases on OnlyFans. While the panel was unable to substantiate a claim of sexual harassment, Santos is also facing 23 federal criminal counts on allegations of fraud and misconduct. He has announced that he will not seek reelection but will continue to serve until his term ends.
