David Catron, The American Spectator

majority in the House will be so narrow that they may as well hold their noses and make use of him. Moreover, it doesn’t hurt his cause that he has pledged to support Kevin McCarthy for Speaker. So, unless he voluntarily resigns, George Santos is about to become a member of what Mark Twain once called America’s only distinctly criminal class.
