Growing Support for Expulsion Vote as George Santos' Ouster from Congress Looms
House Speaker Mike Johnson expresses reservations about expelling Rep. George Santos before a verdict, as the House prepares to vote on Friday. Santos, who has been charged with federal crimes but denies wrongdoing, argues that his expulsion would set a dangerous precedent. Johnson urges GOP lawmakers to vote their conscience, without actively seeking support for either side. Efforts to expel Santos were reignited after the House Ethics Committee found substantial evidence of his improper use of campaign funds. Despite growing support for his removal, Santos remains defiant and refuses to resign.
