However, many aspects of his background were later exposed as false. Despite initially claiming innocence, Santos ultimately pleaded guilty to multiple crimes, resulting in his expulsion from the House of Representatives. His trajectory mirrors a broader theme of how political personas can disintegrate under scrutiny, particularly for those who rely on compelling personal stories to gain traction.
George Santos initially appeared as a trailblazing voice for Republicans in Long Island, but his fabricated background led to his expulsion from Congress after pleading guilty to crimes.
