Rep. George Santos Faces Arraignment on New Fraud Charges, Including Identity Theft

Rep. George Santos, a Republican congressman from New York, is set to be arraigned on new charges in a federal fraud case, including allegations of identity theft and transferring money to his personal bank account from a supporter's credit card. Santos is accused of stealing identities, making unauthorized charges on donors' credit cards, and lying to the Federal Election Commission about his campaign's financial state. The new indictment charges him with conspiracy, wire fraud, making false statements, falsifying records, aggravated identity theft, and access device fraud. Santos had previously pleaded not guilty to a 13-count federal indictment and is currently facing a vote on expulsion from Congress by House Republicans.
