Santos Sends Thank You Letter To Reps Who Voted Not To Expel Him, Raskin Returns It With Grammatical Fixes

November 3, 2023 Homocons, Republicans

Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) sent letters to colleagues who voted against expelling him from Congress earlier this week thanking them for their votes. The letters went out not only to Republicans, but the dozens of Democrats who voted to spare the embattled Long Islander as well – one of whom wrote back that it’s “not shameful to resign.”

“I am writing to express my gratitude to you for standing up for the principals [sic] of due process and the presumption of innocence until proven guilty,” Santos wrote in the letters, copies of which were obtained by Axios.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), a constitutional law professor who said he voted against expulsion out of respect for “due process and the rule of law” but said he will “certainly” vote to oust Santos if he’s convicted, marked up his copy of the letter to correct several grammatical mistakes.
