Santos' Thank-You Notes and Re-Election Plans Spark Controversy

After surviving an expulsion vote from Congress, Rep. George Santos sent typo-laden thank-you notes to House members who supported him, expressing gratitude for standing up for due process and the presumption of innocence. Santos argued that no member of Congress should be expelled before being convicted of alleged crimes, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the sanctity of the institution and avoiding dangerous precedents. This comes after Santos previously sent thank-you letters in May when a Democratic-led expulsion vote was referred to the Ethics Committee.
