<p>If Rep. George Santos (R-NY) were Pinocchio, his nose would be 100 feet long.</p>
<p>Santos, the 34-year-old Republican who surprisingly won New York&#8217;s 3rd Congressional District in the 2022 midterms, lies about everything. And this week he made the mistake of sitting down with Piers Morgan, who doesn&#8217;t mince words.</p>
<p>&#8220;&#8216;I was a Wall Street superstar, I was this, my family were this,&#8217; and it was all untrue,&#8221; Morgan said to Santos in an interview that <a href="https://twitter.com/PiersUncensored/status/1627742941824573441">aired</a> on &#8220;Piers Morgan Uncensored&#8221; Monday night. &#8220;I don’t categorize those as mistakes. I think they’re part of your process of, cathartic process of redemption if you’d like. It’s gotta start from ‘I’ve been a terrible liar,’ I mean, would you be prepared to say that?&#8221;</p>
<p>“Sure, like I said,” Santos started before Morgan interrupted, saying, &#8220;go on then.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Well, I’ve been a terrible liar on those subjects,&#8221; Santos said.</p>
<p>&#8220;What I tried to convey to the American people is I made mistakes of allowing the pressures of what I thought needed to be done in order to — this, this wasn’t about tricking anybody, this wasn’t about, it’s —&#8221; Santos said.</p>
<p>Morgan interrupted again, saying: &#8220;Yes, it was.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;No, no, no, let me finish,&#8221; Santos said.</p>
<p>&#8220;The whole thing was about tricking people,&#8221; Morgan said.</p>
<p>&#8220;Let me finish,&#8221; Santos said. &#8220;It wasn’t about tricking the people. This was about getting accepted by the party here locally.&#8221;</p>
<p>Santos has been caught lying about everything from being Jewish to (for some reason) leading the Baruch College volleyball team to wins over Harvard and Yale.</p>
<p>Here are some of his other claims:</p>
<ul>
<li>He earned degrees from NYU and Baruch College, another New York City-based school. He didn&#8217;t. Not only did he not graduate from either school, officials at both say he never even attended.</li>
<li>He worked at Citigroup or Goldman Sachs. Then he said he worked for the two banks through a third company. Then he admitted he didn&#8217;t even do that, but somehow an investment firm he founded in May 2021 made millions.</li>
<li>He founded a charity group called Friends of Pets United, which he said saved thousands of dogs and cats. But there&#8217;s no IRS record of the group and Santos later said he only campaigned for the group, whatever that means.</li>
<li>He is Jewish and his grandparents fled the Holocaust. He later said that he had not lied and was in fact only referring to himself as “Jew-ish.&#8221;</li>
<li>His mother had died in the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers in New York. He later said his mother died on December 23, 2016.</li>
<li>He was involved in the production of the Broadway flop &#8220;Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark.&#8221; But the show’s actual producers <a href="https://ew.com/theater/george-santos-spider-man-turn-off-the-dark-broadway-web-of-lies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> Entertainment Weekly in a funny statement: &#8220;Of all the tribulations the producers of Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark had to endure, we are very pleased, proud and relieved to report working with George Santos was not one of them.&#8221;</li>
