3:45Now PlayingGeorge Santos in trouble for potentially massive legal consequences after he reportedly lied about the money he gave to other Republicans through campaign donations, including Donald Trump. John Iadarola and Jessica Burbank break it down on The Damage Report.
Read more here:
George Santos reported spreading campaign cash to other Republicans. The money never showed up.
"One of George Santos’ first acts as a candidate for Congress in 2019, according to his campaign finance filings, was making a series of four-figure donations from his campaign to a pair of local Republican groups and President Donald Trump’s reelection committee.
But according to those groups’ own filings, the contributions were never received — and may not have been donated.
The purported donations included $2,800 to Trump’s campaign that isn’t reflected in his campaign finance disclosures — and would have exceeded contribution limits if it did happen as Santos’ campaign reported it. The now-congressman’s campaign reported dispensing thousands more to local groups that did not report receiving the money in filings with the New York Board of Elections."
