If you were hoping to start the new year free of the dramatic machinations of ousted former Congressman George Santos,videos of women having sex with animals dream on.
The Republican was kicked out of Congress last week and faces 23 felony charges and 22 years in federal prison. But a true grifter is always on the make, and Santos is already scheming up new ways to make money after losing his $174,000 House salary.
Just before his expulsion, Santos told reporters that he would consider a turn on ABC’s Dancing With the Starsand would "definitely be writing a book." Deadline has since reported that a movie about his life was also in the works.

"You know, it doesn't matter if you either get fired from a job or if you find a new job," he says. "What matters is what you make of it." He ends his message, "Live, life, laugh, and let the haters hate because they're always gonna hate."
In another, he tells someone named Megan to "screw the haters." He wastes no time pulling from personal experience. "Look, they can boot me out of Congress," he says, "but they can't take away my good humor or my larger-than-life personality nor... the absolute pride I have for everything I've done." He urges Megan to "Stand your ground and don't let them force you out, don't let them bully you."

It turns out that Megan is Senator Megan Hunt of Nebraska. The gift, she said in a post on X, was a gag from a friend.
"To be clear, George Santos is a transphobic fool who has defrauded and harmed people, who says what he has to say to get attention and probably doesn’t actually hold any personal moral convictions," she followed up in a post. Still, "I also agree with the advice in this video."
