George Santos faces House expulsion vote today as momentum builds for ouster

Washington — The House is set to decide embattled GOP Rep. George Santos' future in Congress on Friday in the wake of an explosive report from the House Ethics Committee that convinced many of his colleagues to change their mind on expelling him. 

It's the lower chamber's third attempt since May to oust the New York Republican and comes two weeks after the House Ethics Committee released a damning report finding "substantial evidence" that Santos repeatedly broke the law. 

Santos would be just the sixth House member in U.S. history to be expelled and the first in more than 20 years. Rep. James Traficant was removed from office in 2002 after being convicted of 10 corruption-related felonies.
