Disgraced Rep. George Santos admitted he hopes his colleagues will expel him from Congress next week and criticized bad behavior he claims he witnessed from other politicians on Capitol Hill.

He admitted to journalist Monica Matthews that his time in the House of Representatives is almost up as the chamber prepares its third attempt to unseat him.
“I don’t care. You want to expel me? I’ll wear it like a badge of honor,” Santos said.

Santos added that “he will be expelled when this expulsion resolution reaches the plenary session. … I’ve done the math over and over again and it doesn’t look very good.”

Santos faces federal fraud charges and has publicly admitted to fabricating much of his personal and professional story.
Last week, the bipartisan House Ethics Committee released a damning ethics report revealing how the congressman spent campaign money on Botox, Onlyfans, and other personal expenses.
Its chairman, Rep. Michael Guest (R-Miss.), later introduced a privileged resolution to expel Santos from the chamber after his committee.
