You want energy independence?
Stop subsidizing the oil companies and use the money to put solar arrays on every home that wants one.

Sorry, George, even the corrupt and dirty oil industry won’t be your friend.

Everyone who is actually in this industry always uses the standard idiom “oil and gas”…not “gas and oil”.
It’s like someone who says “pepper and salt” or “glove in hand”. You immediately know they’re not from around here.

This is good evidence that he really is a compulsive liar. He must be aware that at this point that his background and job history are public knowledge, so he knows that we know he never did those things. Yet he still has to say it. He can’t help himself. And given that he’s saying things like this now, so soon after taking office while under scrutiny for lying, just imagine what the rest of his term (however long that turns out to be) will be like. Any time he’s allowed to speak publicly (i.e. in congress, to right-wing media outlets that won’t challenge him, etc.), he’ll be telling weird lies about the subjects at hand. I suspect the only response of his party will be to try to eliminate his opportunities to speak in public…

It would be great if for the next two years someone asked him at every public event: “Yes, [this thing you’ve been speaking about] sounds great, but given your track record of lying, why would anyone believe this.” Rotate questioners so he never knows who it will come from.

I foresee John Lovett playing him on SNL.

Santos saying he should get to stay in office because he got the votes even if by lying is me saying I should get to keep the money even if I got it by robbing the bank.

I wonder what would happen if ‘George Santos’ & Lord Dampnut were to have a conversation.
We should immediately honor any extradition requests they make for him & their former president.
In the case of the latter, we should offer to send Lord Dampnut along as an accomplice/material witness.
