Just before Christmas Santos promised that answers would be forthcoming tweeting: 'To the people of #NY03 I have my story to tell, and it will be told next week. The people elected me to fight for them,' he said. I think the time that is owed is to the people of New York's third. I'm not a criminal who defrauded the entire country and made up this fictional character and ran for Congress. 'To get down to the nit and gritty, I'm not a fraud. 'I'm not going to make excuses for this, but a lot of people overstate in their resumes, or twist a little bit… 'It just strikes me so odd that people are rushing to disinherit me from being Jewish, or for even allowing to care for Israel and Judaism, in a time, in an era, where anti-Semitism is at an all-time rise,' he said. And the people who are now, you're asking to trust you to go and be their voice for them, their families and their kids in Washington?' ex-Rep. And now I want to put this behind me so I can deliver for the American people,' he said. I was raised as a practicing Catholic,' Santos said. And I own up to that.

Guest host Tulsi Gabbard came down hard on the New York congressman-elect, who has admitted to fabricating significant parts of his résumé and embellishing ...

“No one is above the law and if a crime was committed in this county, we will prosecute it.” I can sit down and if you want to have that discussion, I’d be glad to, Tulsi, to explain that to you and make sure that we settle the score.” After referring to himself publicly as “half Jewish” and a “Latino Jew” during his campaign, Santos conceded to the New York Post on Monday that he is “clearly Catholic.” And this is, I think, one of the biggest concerns, congressman-elect, is that you don’t really seem to be taking this seriously,” Gabbard said. Gabbard repeatedly called out Santos’ “blatant lies” throughout the interview, frequently cutting him off and redirecting her questions as he tried to deflect by bringing up alleged lies Democratic politicians have told and highlighting issues he had campaigned on. On Monday, the congressman-elect [told the New York Post](https://nypost.com/2022/12/26/rep-elect-george-santos-admits-fabricating-key-details-of-his-bio/) that he had indeed lied about several of his credentials, admitting to having never worked “directly” for Goldman Sachs and Citigroup and not graduating from Baruch College, nor “from any institution of higher learning.”

Earlier this week, the New York Republican admitted to fabricating several aspects of his past.

Former Hawaii congresswoman goes hard at Santos over fictional résumé — and Marjorie Taylor Greene is displeased.

I think we Republicans should give George Santos a chance and see how he legislates and votes, not treat him the same as the left is." I think the time that is owed is to the people of New York's 3rd. "Tulsi, I can say the same thing about the Democrats," Santos responded. "Not being raised a practicing Jew, I've always joked with friends and circles, even within the campaign, I'd say, guys, I'm 'Jew-ish.' Remember, I was raised Catholic." you're asking to trust you to go and be their voice for them, their families and their kids in Washington?" "If I were one of those in New York's 3rd District right now, now that the election is over, and I'm finding out all of these lies that you've told, not just one little lie or one little embellishment — these are blatant lies — my question is, do you have no shame?"

In a Fox News interview, Gabbard also asked about the Republican congressman-elect's claim to being a 'proud American Jew.'

I campaigned on inflation, I campaigned on crime, I campaigned on education.” “I’m Jew-ish,” he said. “Joe Biden,” Santos claimed, without providing an example or evidence, “has been lying to the American people for 40 years.

The former presidential candidate called resume-inflating Santos's claims 'blatant lies' in Fox News interview.

“Wow,” Gabbard responded. Santos initially talked about the role of integrity for politicians, but Gabbard pushed back: “What does it mean though? When asked about this, Santos told Gabbard that he has Jewish heritage but was raised Catholic. When Gabbard confronted him further about his lies regarding his work at Citigroup and Goldman Sachs, and how he can expect his constituents to trust him, Santos said the lies on his resume are “debatable” and “not false at all”. “We can have this discussion that can go way above the American people’s head”, he said, “but that’s not what I campaigned on”. He said he has joked that he is “Jew-ish”.

The far-right Congress member was not happy about the Fox News guest host's takedown of her incoming House colleague.
