Three months after his election to the House and dumbfounding debut in the national spotlight, we still know little about George Santos—mostly because just about everything he has told us, including perhaps that very name, appears to be untrue. But one thing we do know about the freshman Republican congressman from New York’s 3rd District is that each news cycle is sure to bring us even more examples of duplicity, delusion, and absolutely delightful drama.

Mattel fired back with a line referencing his lies, to which the congressman replied, “It’s all good! I won my race against the fan favorite too.”
