Santos Bails on GOP to Run as ‘Ultra MAGA’ Independent
George Santos is taking on yet another identity.
On Friday, the deposed congressman, serial liar, and alleged fraudster announced that he would run for Congress again not as a Republican but as an independent.
“After today’s embarrassing showing in the house I have reflected and decided that I can no longer be part of the Republican Party,” Santos wrote in a post on X, referring to House GOP leadership’s support for a spending deal that was panned by conservatives but passed on Friday.
