He made it obvious. Supposedly had 1200 payments of exactly $199.99.

Of course his treasurer should be in court with him.


Act Blue has been doing a very similar thing for years for Democrat candidates, PACs, groups, etc.

All of these instances should be thoroughly investigated, but currently only those on the political right are being scrutinized.

I would implore Trump, once he’s re-inaugurated, to “without any personal involvement” have Biden’s property raided by a not-personally-involved select team of like minded FBI agents (once he leaves a post it note on Wray’s desk ordering him to vacate the premises by day’s end)…….and then with no personal involvement have Biden indicted on a matter completely unrelated to conspiracy to commit treason for which his property was raided. With the con/treason case continuing to be developed and flaunted as well.

Hard to believe. Not because Santos is trustworthy, he's not. But because the justice system is so political these days. I mean, Bragg used bullshite in an attempt to twist the law, just so he could charge trump with over 30 felonies. Even some of the wokest legal minds scratched their heads at wtf Bragg was doing.

So the Santos shite has me skeptical. Wondering if the justice system took something nearly every politician does and chose to only apply the law to Santos...and then manipulated the law so it looks a million times worse than it actually is. Or, if Santos legit broke serious laws that no other politicians would dare to do? Idk

Santos would be prime presidential material if he were a Democrat.

Sounds just like most of the crap that Biden makes up about himself.

Biden needed more cover for Representative Comer's announcement.

I'm sure if you searched real hard you could find a thread on Biden somewhere on this board. 95% sure.

The average American commits 3 felonies a day.


We have a byzantine labyrinth of obscure laws to use against anyone who they feel needs to be dealt with.

Nothing wrong with being skeptical. In fact, that's a good thing. But from what I've seen, these charges are very specific.

It's one thing to play fast and loose with the truth generally. But when you lie to people to get money, and pocket the funds, folks don't tend to take that well.

You think the charges against Santos are fabricated?

That is one hell of a hill to die on.


No my point is how quickly they act on charges against (R)'s. The justice system is weaponized

This kind of comment is based upon an underlying premise that if someone is a Republican, that should make them immune from charges if they defraud and steal.

Sorry, being a Republican is not a license to defraud and steal.

Being a Democrat is no immunity either. Ask Bill Jefferson, Edwin Edwards and others.

That dude is a disaster. He should just change his affiliation to Democrat and be one of them.

The people could not publicly discuss specific details of the case until it is unsealed and spoke to The AP on condition of anonymity. The unsealing would happen when Santos appears in court, which could come as soon as Wednesday.


Report when unsealed. This “anonymous” stuff needs to stop unless it’s something of real importance.

A major purge of these corrupt demprogs infesting government is in order. Santos is a POS, but dems who are worse are given a pass.

Hmmm, lying and questionable finances. Hmmm, that would indict every member of Congress.
