US House Expels New York Republican George Santos | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

For the first time in more than 20 years, the US House has expelled a member. New York Republican Congressman George Santos saw nearly half of his GOP colleagues vote to oust him. The vote follows an Ethics Committee report saying there was substantial evidence the freshman lawmaker during his 2022 campaign, broke federal law by using campaign funds for personal use. He still has to deal with a 23 count indictment, the federal charges include conspiracy, wire fraud and falsifying records. That trial is expected to start next year. Cofounder and president of Real Clear Politics, Tom Bevan, joins to share whether he is at all surprised by Santos' expulsion and the bipartisan agreement on this issue. He tells us what this means for the Republican Caucus in the House and their already slim majority. On another note, there was a debate between DeSantis and Newsom last night. Bevan gives us his biggest takeaways from the debate. He fills us in on whether he thinks DeSantis' performance can give his campaign the boost it needs right now as he continues to slip in the polls. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
