GOP Rep. David Joyce: Santos’s Fate Was Sealed When We Heard That He Had Stolen From One Of Us [VIDEO]

“One of the members came forward yesterday at the end of the talk, and then today came forward and put out the email for those who might not have understood where he was coming from, and explained that not only he, but his mother were ripped off by this campaign. And so when you start ripping off other members, if that’s not enough to convince people that maybe you shouldn’t be here, I don’t know what it’s going to take.

“I think Max’s last-minute email to all the members determined the outcome for him, because they may not have believed my investigative report — sorry about that — but they believed Max when it’s coming personally from him, that he was ripped off, his mother was ripped off, and that he had to spend money to defend himself from the FEC’s allegations.” – GOP Rep. David Joyce, who sits on the House Ethics Committee.
