George Santos Target Of New FBI Investigation Into Alleged ‘GoFundMe Scheme’
Officials with federal law enforcement have reportedly begun an investigation of George Santos (R-NY) about his alleged involvement in a “GoFundMe scheme” which was created under the guise of helping the dog of a disabled U.S. Navy veteran.Santos explained to POLITICO that a pair of agents with the FBI reached out to Richard Osthoff, the disabled Navy veteran related to the scheme, as a section of the investigation being carried out by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Eastern District of New York.
Osthoff stated that Santos managed to secure $3,000 intended for use on a life-saving surgery that was needed for the man’s pit bull and then ran off with the funds. He reportedly handed over a series of text messages exchanges that he had with Santos to the agents.
This has renewed my faith in the FBI as an investigative body as it's amazing what they can uncover in a very short time when it's a Republican they are investigating.
Read about it... I think George's days are numbered in Congress.
