The writers of Saturday Night Live wasted no time in roasting disgraced Rep. George Santos after he was expelled from Congress on Friday for admitted ethics violations, including spending donor money on Botox treatments. On the steps of the US Capitol, Bowen Yang played a news conference by Santos that served as the show’s opening act. Yang nodded in response to the real New York congressman’s claim this week that he was being “bullied” by his colleagues in the House, saying,” I’m being assaulted.” What more is fresh, though? Yang continued. America despises witnessing a Latina queen triumph. It has been a witch hunt ever since I was elected, but if there is anything I’m guilty of, it’s love for too many, slash fraud. Recently, Santos was accused by the House Ethics Committee of using campaign funds for things that had nothing to do with his campaign for Congress, such as Botox, OnlyFans, and skincare spa. Santos is facing criminal charges for identity theft and fraud, including accusations of a fictitious donor scheme that Mother Jones initially reported. He was discovered lying about his background and resume before he was yet sworn in to Congress in January. Santos could no more claim the title of lawmaker after leaving Congress, SNL’s Yang acknowledged. Yang quavered,” I’m really standard, old Professor Major General Reverend Astronaut Santos, princess of Genovia, protector of the realm.” ” Congress, to hell with you!” Since my new movie just opened this weekend, I do n’t need them anyway. Even though Santos has n’t actually directed a movie, one is on the way. It’s called Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé. Deadline announced this weekend that HBO has optioned the rights to journalist Mark Chiusano’s upcoming book about the dishonest past congressman. The film, which is currently in development, will be a “darkly humorous” look at Santos and was created by none other than Frank Rich, the executive producer of Veep and Succession. Do n’t throw out that popcorn while Santos ‘ misadventures in Congress may finally be over.
