Former aide Naysa Woomer criticizes ex-Rep. George Santos' planned primary challenge against Rep. Nick LaLota as "a joke," citing Santos' ego and media attention. Woomer warns LaLota to take the challenge seriously, referencing potential surprises in the June primary. LaLota, unfazed by the challenge, vows to hold Santos accountable for his past actions. Santos did not respond to a request for comment.
Naysa Woomer, former communications director for New York Congressman George Santos, revealed details about her time working for Santos, including an incident where he almost burned down his office with a lit candle. Woomer advised Santos to go on an apology tour after his fabricated life story was exposed, but he refused to offer a full apology. She also expressed disappointment in his focus on seeking attention and celebrity status rather than serving constituents. Woomer resigned in May after Santos was indicted on federal fraud and money laundering charges.
