Federal prosecutors have filed charges against Rep. George Santos, according to multiple media reports.
It was not immediately clear what charges the freshman lawmaker faces, though the FBI and Justice Department prosecutors in New York and Washington have been investigating allegedly false claims in his campaign finance filings, among other things.
Santos could appear at federal court in New York’s eastern district, where the charges have reportedly been filed under seal, as soon as Wednesday, according to CNN and NBC. https://bit.ly/3VOL1ud
