There's a push for a federal investigation into Congressman-elect George Santos' alleged fraudulent behavior.

"This is not about harmless embellishments that candidates make when they run for office.

Lafazan detailed alleged crimes warranting an investigation, including voter fraud and conspiracy to defraud the U.S. in connection to campaign donations.
