Ds back to their old tricks of false allegations with no proof.
I think this Santos is taking them longer than expected to take down.
I wonder who will be their next R target that they can replace with a D appointment?

A former prospective staffer to Rep. George Santos said he filed a police report and House ethics complaint alleging that the freshman congressman made an unwanted sexual advance toward him during a private encounter in his office and was later denied employment there.
Santos told CNN Monday he “100%” denies the allegations, dismissing the claims as “comical.” “Of course, I deny the claim,” he said in a brief interview on Capitol Hill.
The individual, Derek Myers, alleges that Santos on January 25 “touched” his groin before the New York congressman allegedly invited him to his home and said his husband was out of town, according to a copy of the House ethics complaint provided to CNN.
Myers says he declined the alleged advance and promptly left Santos’ office. Five days later, he claims, Santos began to question him over his past work as a reporter. Myers alleges that his job offer was then withdrawn on February 1, even though he had begun working there voluntarily.
Myers acknowledged to CNN that he has no corroborating evidence, though it is illegal to file a false police report.
CNN has not reviewed the police report, which Myers says includes the same information that was provided to the House Ethics Committee. The US Capitol Police declined to comment. The House Ethics Committee declined to comment. A spokesperson for the most senior Democrat on the House Ethics Committee, Rep. Susan Wild, confirmed receipt of the same complaint but declined to comment further.
“There’s no corroborating evidence whatsoever,” Myers said about his alleged encounter with the congressman. “It’s simply going to be his word against mine.”
