0:00.0 | This is Michael Popok, legal AF with breaking news in the evolving fraud and scandal around |
0:04.8 | representative elect Republican George Santos. |
0:09.0 | Three different prosecutors offices have now opened up an investigation into Mr. Santos |
0:14.4 | to get to the bottom of his financial misdeilings where he got $700,000 to lend to his campaign |
0:21.4 | and every aspect of his fabricated resume that he used successfully to campaign for election |
0:28.0 | in New York. And let's look at all the things he lied about and how unscrupulous and |
