So what’s going on with freshman Representative, and noted liar, George Santos (R-NY)?<\/p>\n
\nThe judge overseeing the case against indicted\u00a0Rep. George Santos<\/a>\u00a0agreed Tuesday to unseal the names of the people who put up the New York Republican’s $500,000 bond.<\/p>\n
U.S. Magistrate Judge Anne Shields<\/a>\u00a0kept her order and related filings under seal, however, to give Santos until noon Friday to appeal her decision.<\/p>\n
Several news organizations requested that the names of the co-signers of Santos\u2019 bond be released following the lawmaker\u2019s indictment last month. In a\u00a0letter to the judge<\/a>\u00a0on Monday, Santos\u2019 lawyer, argued that unsealing the names of the co-signers would put them in a position to \u201clikely to suffer great distress, may lose their jobs, and God forbid, may suffer physical injury.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is little doubt that the suretors will suffer some unnecessary form of retaliation if their identities and employment are revealed,\u201d the lawyer, Joseph Murray, wrote. [NBC News<\/strong><\/a>]<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Really? Can the good consul, Mr. Murray, provide proof of the magnitude?<\/p>\n
OK, so maybe it does, or would, happen.<\/p>\n
Then again, maybe not. Is this just more drama from one of the noted drama queens of the age, George Santos. His fevered imagination may not quite match that of his idol, Mr. Trump, but is certainly heated.<\/p>\n
It’s even possible Santos wants to be in jail, either for safety or notoriety reasons.<\/p>\n
This one’s a real puzzle, I must say, and I’m looking forward to the climax.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
