George Santos Scandal: NY congressman-elect investigated for lying about past | LiveNOW from FOX

As Rep.-elect George Santos gets closer to being sworn in, calls for the 34-year-old Republican to resign are growing louder, amid federal and local investigations. Santos has already acknowledged he lied about his heritage, education, and professional pedigree as he campaigned for office, and sources have reported that there was no record that Santos ever went to Horace Mann Prep in the Bronx, as he claimed. Questions were first raised about Santos earlier this month when The New York Times published an investigation into his resume and found a number of major discrepancies. Since then, Santos has admitted lying about having Jewish ancestry, lying about working for Wall Street banks and lying about obtaining a college degree.
