George Santos Claims to Have Survived Assasination Attempt, “Had Shoes Stolen Off His Feet”
Rep. George Santos (the Long Island Republican who is a chronically untruthful and has fabricated much about his biography) claimed that he was able to survive an interview in a podcast interview. “assassination attempt” — and separately had his shoes stolen off his feet during a mugging in the middle of Fifth Avenue.
During a December virtual sit-down with a Brazilian podcast, the notorious fabulist made several wild claims. The podcast was translated from Portuguese by MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” and aired on Monday.
“We have already suffered an attempt on my life, an assassination attempt, a threatening letter, having to have the police, a police escort standing in front of our house,” Santos, who used to go by the name Anthony Devolder before being introduced as George Santos Devolder on the show, said that he was now known as Santos.
The freshman congressman, who is of Brazilian descent — but previously claimed he was “Jew-ish” and the descendant of Holocaust survivors — alleged that he has been the victim of multiple crimes over the years, including the “assassination attempt.”
He also said that when he and his husband returned home from a New Year’s Eve party in 2021, they found their Florida home vandalized in what he described as a politically motivated attack.
“It was vandalized because we were at a Republican party,” He disagreed.
Later, Santos told the story of how he was robbed by two men on Fifth Avenue in New York City.
“Before asking any questions, they (the robbers) weren’t black, they were even white, but they robbed me, took my briefcase, took my shoes, and my watch,” Santos made the comments on the podcast. “And that was in broad daylight. It was 3 p.m. I was leaving my office, going to the garage, getting my car, and I was mugged.”
Keep track of all lies told by NY Rep. George Santos
Santos continued to state that the worst part about the robbery had been that “nobody did anything.”
“The fear is real,” He added. “It’s surreal what we live through here.”
Maddow said during Monday night’s broadcast that the hosts of the Brazilian podcast later asked Santos — aka Devolder — for a copy of a police report documenting his purported robbery but did not receive a response.
Santos, who won a Democrat-held congressional seat in November, has been caught up in a web of lies and scandals, from his murky finances to the shady resume and puzzled ancestry.
The newly sworn-in Republican congressman was found to have fabricated his college education at Baruch College and NYU, his employment history at top Wall Street firms, his family heritage, and even the circumstances of his mother’s death, which he claimed was tied to the 9/11 attacks.
Santos was caught in yet more lies last week. It emerged that he performed as a “drag queen” named Kitara Ravache Despite his repeated denials, he was in Brazil in 2008
After the a photo of Santos in a sparkly red dress and wig was shared by a former friend from Brazil, Santos, who is openly gay, finally admitted to dabbling in cross-dressing — but insisted that he was not a drag queen, and only having fun at a festival.
Despite increasing calls from Republicans and Democrats for Santos’ resignation over his unending litany of falsehoods, the freshman lawmaker has flatly refused to step down — and instead was awarded seats on two House committees.
