Santos has denied all of the charges against him and has said that he will run for re-election next year. However, it remains to be seen whether he will be able to survive the ethics investigation and the felony charges against him.

Santos’ Expulsion Vote: A Win for Due Process or a Sign of GOP Hypocrisy?

Some have argued that the House vote against expelling Santos is a victory for due process. They argue that Santos should be presumed innocent until proven guilty.

Others have argued that the vote is a sign of GOP hypocrisy, given that the party has previously called for the expulsion of Democrats who have been charged with crimes.

It is unclear what the future holds for Santos. He is facing serious charges and could be expelled from the House if he is convicted. However, he has also shown a remarkable ability to survive political scandals.
