Former Representative George Santos has resurfaced in national news coverage this week, according to NPR. Santos was expelled from the House of Representatives in December 2023 — the sixth person expelled from the House in American history — following revelations that he had fabricated significant portions of his biography, educational background, and professional history, and following multiple federal criminal indictments.

The specific development that produced his resurfacing this week is from NPR reporting; ONYX presents it without adding to its prominence.
