MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow aired exclusive video Monday of serial liar Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.), who claims he was the subject of an assassination plot and the victim of a robbery on New York’s Fifth Avenue.
“I have already suffered an attempt on my life, an assassination attempt, a threatening letter, we had to have the police, a police escort in front of our house,” the elected deputy told Brazilian podcast “Radio Novelo Apresenta.” . ” in December.
Santos said his Florida home was vandalized in January 2021 “because I went to a Republican party” to celebrate the New Year.
And he said two white men robbed him “in broad daylight” on Fifth Avenue in the summer of 2021, stealing his shoes, watch and briefcase.
“It wasn’t the worst of it all,” she told the podcast host. “Nobody did anything. Nobody did anything. The fear is real. It’s surreal what we’re living here.”
“Surreal is one word for it,” Maddow said after showing the footage.
After Santos won his congressional seat in the 2022 midterms, it turned out that he made a big part of his life story.
Santos did not respond to Maddow’s request for comment on the complaint, he said. “We have also submitted a request to the NYPD for any police reports that match what Mr. Santos described,” the host added.
