Inventor of the internet and online sports betting, George Santos, is now a congressman. How fitting.
No, he didn't really invent the internet, that would be Al Gore (we think). Sports betting: Well, Santos didn't invent that either.
The lying congressman was spoofed by SNL over the weekend.
Odds on Santos resigning before year's end were coming in at 2-1 but odds of the New York Republican representative getting forced out of Congress or indicted were coming in at 1-3.
Among the many things George Santos is accused of: Lying about where he attended high school, where he went to college, that he was a star volleyball player on the team of a school he never attended, and that his mom perished in the World Trade Center during 9/11. It has since been revealed his late mom resided in Brazil at the time and could not have entered the U.S. in 2001 as she awaited her visa approval. In 2003, his mom, Fatima Devolder, applied for a visa to enter the U.S. In the document. She wrote that she had not been in the country since 1999.
Santos was also revealed as Brazilian drag queen Kitara Ravache. He sort of came clean about this matter over the weekend, insisting instead that he only wore the outfit and played the role during Carnival.
NEW: I just spoke by phone with Eula Rochard, a Brazilian drag queen who was friends with George Santos when he lived near Rio. She said everyone knew him as Anthony (*never* George), or by his drag name, Kitara, and confirms this photo is from a 2008 drag show at Icaraí Beach. pic.twitter.com/1MeeDR1O2O

Confirmation of George performing as a drag queen in a U.S. gay venue were coming in at 8-1 odds.
The Congressperson also lied about being Jewish, later claiming he was "Jew-ISH", like squeamISH.
His grandmother was definitely not a Holocaust victim, as Santos previously claimed.
“For a lot of people who are descendants of World War II refugees or survivors of the Holocaust, a lot of names and paperwork were changed in name of survival,” Santos told Fox News last year, claiming he had Ukrainian heritage on his mother’s side.
Multiple family records show that Santos’s maternal grandparents were born in Brazil.
Santos revelations and genealogical proof that he is of American Indian heritage are coming in at 20-1 odds, Asian 30-1 odds, Black at 40-1 odds.
And was he on Hannah Montana with Miley Cyrus?
He seems to deny the appearance even though his resume said otherwise.
The now vanished Wikipedia post was full of spelling errors. It read: 'Anthony Devolder first startted [sp] his 'stage' life at age 17 as an gay night club [sp] DRAG QUEEN and with that won sevral [sp] GAY 'BEAUTY PAGENTS [sp].'
There is so much to George Santos we still probably don't know, but there seems to be a new story emerging every other day.
