    The devil you know......

    Honestly, I would not be surprised if the Democrats ran him again and won.

    I mean, ferchrissakes, we're looking down the barrel of Trump-Biden 24. Is this more unlikely? Other than his peccadilloes, has Santos represented his district adequately? Hell, they keep re-electing AOC. We are so far through the looking glass at this point that conventional wisdom is relatively useless.

        Charges came out. Lots of felonies. 5 counts of wire fraud, each can get you 20 years in club Fed. 3 counts of money laundering, same. Other charges too.

            His Role in N.B.A. Playoffs

            “We’re looking at a pivotal Game Five against the Golden State Warriors,” Santos, who claimed to play small forward for the Los Angeles Lakers, said Mr. Santos, via Andy Borobitz.

              Have to say, am I the only one to wonder if it is rather
              unusual that the DOJ moved so quickly? Think about it. Before
              November, no one had heard of him and his history of difficulties with
              the truth was not on anyone's radar, even when he lost the
              election in his first time. And now, within a matter of 14 months they think they
              really have a case against him.

                    I doubt it has anything to do with motivation. You think the people investigating Trump are any less motivated?

                    I think it has to do with how difficult it is to execute the information collection. In this case it's all documents they subpoena from banks. Not a lot of sleuthing who the witnesses might be, figuring out whom to ask about what, new leads, etc.

                            Perhaps but where there’s smoke there’s fire, and just maybe what seemed had to be an insignificant smoulder, turned out be much more than a discarded cigarette butt that required action.

                                    I am not really charged for fraud or whatever. All of these are mere smokescreens so I can go into a double secret undercover mission to save millions of American lives from imminent danger. All these fake charges will be dropped as soon as my mission succeed. I know all of you, my supporters, love and care about me, so I just want to let you know the truth so you won’t worry too much. Wish me luck!

                                    In America today, you're innocent until proven guilty.

                                        An unverified rumor is that DOJ will drop charges if he resigns, opening the door for a special election.

                                        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                                          I'd be skeptical of that. I think any plea would include jail time, and won't come for many months.

                                          Only non-witches get due process.
