It is Friday, February 24th at about 11.30 a.m. and what are we going to be talking about today?

New York's third congressional district covers parts of Queens in New York City and parts of

NASA County in Long Island. And in November of 2022, they elected a little-known newcomer as their

freshman congressman, a man named George Santos. So who exactly was he? He attended the elite New

In 2015, a landlord in New York filed an eviction case against him for more than $2,000 in unpaid rent.

And in 2020, Santos reported earning just $50,000 a year. But he was also able to lend $700,000

to his own campaign. But where did that money come from? He has a company called De Volder Organization,

and he claims it's worth more than a million dollars. But no one can find any clients for the company.

His campaign also paid thousands to a cleaning company listed at an apartment where Santos himself
