According to a number of sources, lame-duck Republican New York Congressman Anthony Devolder George Santos was on fire during a Twitter livestream (called something silly like an “X Space”) for a right-wing blogger Friday night, repeatedly taunting his GOP colleagues in the House to expel him including calling the Republican head of the Ethics Committee that investigated him a “pussy.”

Santos doesn’t want to resign his seat; he wants to be kick out so he can claim victimhood like all Republicans crave.  So to put some cream on top of dare to his colleagues to boot him, he added a Madison Cawthorn-esque flourish to the reason he’s not running for reelection:  it’s not because he’s going to get convicted of felonies.  It’s because they’re having frequent sex with lobbyists.

“Within the ranks of the United States Congress, there’s felons galore, there’s people with all sorts of sheisty backgrounds … I have colleagues who are more worried about getting drunk every night with the next lobbyists that they’re going to screw and pretend like none of us know what’s going on and sell off the American people. … Not show up to vote because they’re too hungover or whatever the reason is, or not show up to vote at all and just give their card out like fucking candy for someone else to vote for them. This shit happens every single week. Where are the ethics investigations?”

“I don’t care. You want to expel me? I’ll wear it like a badge of honor,” Santos said. “I’ll be the sixth expelled member of Congress in the history of Congress. And guess what? I’ll be the only one expelled without a conviction.”

Santos jeered Ethics Committee Chair Michael Guest of Mississippi, saying he should “stop being a pussy” and file a motion to throw out Santos himself.  But then, George put on his tough New Yorker attitude: “It ain’t gonna be the dude from Mississippi that’s gonna kick me, a New Yorker, out of Congress.  No offense to people from Mississippi, but making that very, very clear, it’s going to take a lot more than that.”
