Rep. George Santos (R-NY), the habitual liar who fabricated large swathes of his work history and personal background before being elected to Congress, claimed last month during a podcast interview that he had been the target of an assassination attempt, that he was mugged in a brazen daytime robbery while walking down Fifth Avenue in New York City, and that his Florida home was vandalized because of his political affiliation.
The wild allegations were uncovered Monday by Rachel Maddow, who on her show played video of an interview the Congressman conducted with Brazilian podcast Rádio Novelo Apresenta.
In the translated clip from Dec. 7, Santos claimed that the alleged vandalism occurred while he and his husband were at a New Year’s Eve Party to ring in 2021.
