A crowd chanted outside Congressman George Santos’ Douglaston, Queens district office on Wednesday.
FOX 5 News spotted him getting into a car outside his district office on Monday morning. He left with his operations director before FOX 5 News could speak to him."We need a representative with character," Nemoff said. "Not who is a character. How can he represent us when he’s in hiding?"
On Twitter, Santos says he’s not in hiding and isn’t backing down. FOX 5 News' repeated requests to speak to the representative have been denied. Santos is at the center of investigations for his campaign finances and also his role in alleged GoFundMe schemes. One reported scam involved a veteran’s dying service dog. Santos allegedly stole $3,000 that had been raised for its care.On Wednesday, the money was donated to Paws of War. The nonprofit helps train and place service dogs with veterans.
