George Santos4Congress's posts release incorrectly saying he's been sworn into House
Santos's release, which has since been deleted, on the House website, additionally read,"Representative George Santos was added to the rolls of the House upon executing the oath of office."NBC News reporter Sahil Kapur provided more context into the misstep, saying it wasn't just Santos, but"the same language appeared for numerous other freshman members on their new websites," including on Robert Garcia's site.
"In even more shocking news, Santos was also sworn in as the new President of the United States after beating Biden in gladiator combat," one Twitter user wrote."Surprised he didn't say he's now Speaker," added another. Despite admitting to lying about much of his biography, Santos has repeatedly said he won't step down. But as he waits to be sworn into Congress once a speaker is chosen, Santos has to deal with another issue: being the target of a fraud investigation by authorities in Brazil.
