Here’s What You Get When You Ignore Politics And Do Not Vote

New York State’s Republican U.S. Representative for the Empire State’s 3rd Congressional District, GEORGE ANTHONY DEVOLDER SANTOS, also known as “George Santos,” Defendant.

There is, I dare say, no one who “likes” him. To be more succinct, people (his constituents especially and particularly) do not appreciate who he is, and what he has done, which is to consistently lie, i.e., fabricate falsehoods, exclusively about himself.

And the way they got him was to NOT VOTE.

Literally.

The sheer number of people who DID NOT VOTE in the 2022 midterm election in New York’s 3rd Congressional District is the EXCLUSIVE reason why George Santos was elected. Period. It’s THEIR fault, by omission.

New York’s 3rd Congressional District which Defendant Santos now ostensibly “represents” is the state’s wealthiest Congressional District, and in 2022, was the 4th wealthiest nationally. One would imagine that the wealthy, well-educated, well-off, and well-to-do would have better sense and be more proactive in their own self governance. Apparently not.

Here are a few income figures for NY CD3:

Median household income: $130,679

Mean household income: $178,723

Percent of households with incomes of $200,000 or more: 30.4%

At the time of Forbes’ writing (10/21/22, linked above), it was represented by Tom Suozzi, a Democrat, who opted to campaign for governor of the Empire State instead of for Congressional reelection. George Santos, who had campaigned for that same office in the election immediately prior, i.e., 2020, was elected in the November 8, 2022 General Election, and took the Oath of Office January 3, 2023.

After 2020 redistricting, the district includes northern Long Island from Great Neck in the west, to Dix Hills and Kings Park in the east.

In the 2020 General Election, George Santos campaigned against Tom Suozzi, who campaigned as a Democrat / Working Families Party / Independence Party. Tom Suozzi won, 208,412 to 161,907. In the 2022 mid-term election, Republican George Santos won against Democrat Robert Zimmerman, who campaigned under the banner of the Democrat / Working Families Party, by 142,017 to 120,060. Put another way, Santos won the 2022 election with FEWER VOTES (12.2%) than he received in 2020.

Again, there’s ONLY one reason why Santos won in 2022: People did NOT vote. Altogether, a little over 101,000 FEWER people voted in the Zimmerman v Santos race in CD3 in 2022, than in the 2020 Suozzi v Santos race.

Defendant George Santos, a now-Federally-indited Republican U.S. Representative of NY CD-3. This is NOT a mugshot, but rather, is a U.S. Passport-style photograph, which does NOT allow the subject to wear glasses, caps, or uniforms when the image is made.

Of course, there was is another chronically habitual liar, who became the 45th POTUS for essentially the same reason — people didn’t vote. Though there were more popular votes for the losing candidate than for the winning candidate, Electoral College votes decide the ultimate winner — NOT the popular vote. Again, Presidential candidates are NOT elected by popular vote, but that’s a discussion for another day. And it’s NOT the first time it’s ever happened, either.

More to the point, George Santos now has an OFFICIAL new name:

Defendant.

He seems to enjoy changing his name, and practically every other aspect about his life which he has fraudulently fabricated. Some news outlets have generously used the term “fabulist” to describe him, which is, in my considered estimation, not merely inaccurate, but entirely too kind.

Here’s why:

The term “fabulist,” is defined as: 1. A composer of fables.

The 2nd definition, which is not the preferred, or primary usage, is “A teller of tales; a liar.” The word “fabulist” stems from the French word “fabuliste,” which was further derived from the Latin word “fābula,” meaning fable — and a fable is defined as follows: 1. A usually short narrative making an edifying or cautionary point and often employing as characters animals that speak and act like humans.
2. A story about legendary persons and exploits.
3. A falsehood; a lie.

Clearly, we see that a “fabulist” is not primarily, nor necessarily, a bad person. Jack and the Beanstalk, The Three Little Pigs, Little Red Ridinghood, and “The Boy Who Cried ‘WOLF!'” (properly “The Shepherd Boy & the Wolf“) are all “tall tales,” allegorical stories that teach a moral. And hopefully, most everyone knows that “The Shepherd Boy & the Wolf” is an Aesop’s fable, and the moral it teaches: DO NOT LIE.

So fables, and the associated related term fabulist, as one who tells fables, are much too generous terms to characterize the Defendant, which is the name the United States Government has given to him, and is the term we’ll use from here, forward. Of course, the more blunted “goddamn liar” is exceedingly more succinct, though unofficial, so we’ll use the OFFICIAL term — DEFENDANT.

Defendant has been charged with violating the following laws:

Prediction: Banana Repugnicunts will do NOTHING about Santos/Devolder

Perhaps the most “burning” question in many political observers imagination in the matter of George Santos/Anthony Devolder’s election is:

“How DID this happen?”

I’ll take that question for $1000.

In a word, “apathy.”

Constituents who entrusted their support to him in NYD3 were hypothecated.

Allow me to explain. They pledged their support (as evidenced by their votes), and when the pledge expired following the election’s certification, he took the Congressional Oath of Office, and to their dismay, voters discovered they did not control (own) him. After all, they DID allow him to run under their banner. Had they any control over their own party, they would have never done so… or, at least they want us to believe that.

Frankly, NYCD3 voters have no one to blame but themselves.

One of their several news outlets — no, NOT The Old Gray Lady, but the North Shore Leader — warned constituents long in advance (in September) that he was a fraud.

The metaphorical “voice of one crying in the wilderness” was largely ignored, until it was convenient for the OG to belatedly “pounce” upon the dirty deal done dirt cheap in December… after the election was over, and certified, and hope to draw some belated attention to themselves… long after the fact.

But, ’twas too little, too late, because by then, there was

George Santos, Anthony Devolder, whatever his name is, has indicted himself.

The lying Republican elected to represent New York’s 3rd Congressional District (Queens/Nassau) is not just any old run-of-the-mill liar, he is a pathological liar.

His life, or rather, what he has presented as his life, is just one blatant falsehood after another. And that the good people of that portion of Long Island which he represents have elected him, speaks more to THEIR laziness and THEIR ineptness than to anything else.

The people of that district have stained THEIR own name, THEY have soiled their own shorts.

One of their local newspapers, The North Shore Leader, broke the story on The Fabulist, and did an at-lenght exposé of him BEFORE the election, and BEFORE the New York Times.

In a story published 20 January 2023 and headlined “The Leader Told You So: US Rep-Elect George Santos Is a Fraud — and Wanted Criminal,” they detailed how, at least four months earlier, they had broken the story, and wanting to endorse a Republican candidate, they could not, because of his wholesale lies about himself, which again, they discovered and reported BEFORE the New York Times.

Instead, they endorsed a Democrat.

In the few days since he took the oath of office as a United States Representative, numerous news outlets have uncovered, discovered, and otherwise brought to light the ignominious history of the man, with tales so perverse, so depraved and bizarre that only the most wretched human being could have possibly done them. Among them, stealing the money from a GoFundMe account established for a Veteran, whose Service Animal needed life-saving surgery.

The Veteran’s Service Animal died because George Santos/Anthony Devolder diverted the money raised for his own selfish use.

It is almost a pointless exercise to detail the hideous lies he has told about himself, each one more fantastic than the next, and with the discovery that they were all a pack of lies, he merely brushed them all off saying they were “embellishments” of his résumé.

Seemingly countless people have come forward, individuals who knew, or have known him personally, and without exception, they every one have essentially said the same thing: George Santos/Anthony Devolder is a liar.

Wikipedia page for user Anthonydevolder, who is, more likely than not, George Santos. Devolder is his late mother’s surname.

It’s even uncertain what his real name is, or even what his birth date is. But what IS certain, is that he is a wanted man in Brazil, where authorities there had years earlier charged him with theft of a checkbook, forgery of those stolen checks, and theft of merchandise purchased with those forged checks. Santos even apologized to the merchant where he passed the forged instruments, and confessed to the authorities that he had committed those crimes. But shortly, when authorities came searching for him, he was nowhere to be found, and had absconded to the United States, where he remains to this day. It is unclear exactly what actions Brazilian authorities will take, if they will seek extradition, or exactly what course of action they will take in regard to seeking justice.

Stay tuned.

In the mean time, others who have been around him over the years have found evidence from a few years earlier when he was a drag queen.

While he has claimed to be openly gay, he was once married to a woman, and purports to have changed. Exactly how, he has not made clear, and refuses to speak to news outlets.

When news and video of his drag queen days made the national news, he denied it all.

When news of George Santos’ Wikipedia User ID page under the name of “Anthonydevolder” in the category of Drag Queen was made known, “edit wars” started upon it almost immediately, and the page was “blanked,” which raises several unsettling questions: “Why?,” and “who?” most notable among them.

HOWEVER… HuffPost recently published at least one news article about the recent discovery of an item which was
