The embattled Rep. George Santos (R-NY) — who was hit earlier this month with a 13-count indictment that included seven counts of wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, one count of theft of public funds, and two counts of making materially false statements to the House of Representatives — was temporarily listed as the treasurer for his own campaign and several affiliated committees before being quickly replaced.

I think he uses Magnetic Poetry® tiles with names instead of words to “find” campaign treasurers.

“In a complaint filed with the FEC, CREW alleged that there is reason to believe that Olson, Santos’s former treasurer, does not exist.”

“In response, Santos produced affidavits from John Barron, John Miller, and David Dennison swearing to Olson’s existence.”

Jew-ish, to be precise.

(Ironically, this is the teasing way a popular bagel shop in DC (Call Your Mother) refers to themselves, long before George Anthony Devolder Santis – aka Kitara Ravache – arrived on the scene. Bet they’re not thrilled by the association the term now brings to mind)

There is evidence it’s a robot cyborg like others around trump. It could be a Borg. There are Borg in DC … note the wire to the brain implant…

Santos’ new treasurer, Boles, formerly worked for Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA).

I have not seen any reports of Boles dissociating from MTG. My assumption is he is the campaign treasurer for both.

Such mystery!

I do hope Mr. Olson hasn’t come to some unpleasant end. He had such a promising career ahead of him.

Simple remedy to prove now resigned Treasurer Olson is real person. Habeas corpus.

It seems to me he would have named a known financial wizard.
Like that Florida guy, what’s his name? Ah!
Anthony Devolder.
I heard this dude can create money out of whole cloth.
