Congressman-elect George Santos has admitted to a long list of lies about his background, saying, “We do stupid things in life.”
The 34-year-old New York Republican says that despite having fabricated his education, his work history, and lied about his real-estate holdings, and hiding a marriage, he intends to take office.
“This will not deter me from having good legislative success. I will be effective. I will be good,” he told the New York Post.
