The Hill reports:
Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) said that claims that he stole money from a GoFundMe for a veteran’s dying dog were “shocking” and “insane,” denying the news that surfaced on Tuesday. The dog, Sapphire, died in 2017.
The veterans account of their interactions with Santos in the Patch story include alleged text messages with the freshman lawmaker, who was going by Anthony Devolder, an alias he used. They said Santos made off with around $3,000.
Santos also denied reports on Thursday that he performed in a drag queen beauty pageant in Brazil. Santos has admitted to fabricating his resume and past experiences.

The reports that I would let a dog die is shocking & insane. My work in animal advocacy was the labor of love & hard work. Over the past 24hr I have received pictures of dogs I helped reduce throughout the years along with supportive messages.
These distractions won’t stop me!

The most recent obsession from the media claiming that I am a drag Queen or “performed” as a drag Queen is categorically false.
The media continues to make outrageous claims about my life while I am working to deliver results.
I will not be distracted nor fazed by this.

The GOP has been okay with Santos lying, fabricating, Ponzi-scheming, campaign finance-violating, making money off a sick dog.
But drag-queening could be their limit.

It’s not Santos being a Brazilian drag queen that’s repugnant, it’s the blatant hypocrisy of Republicans using the LGBTQ community as a punching bag to foment hate while embracing Santos because he’s a lap dog for McCarthy.
