George Santos falsely claimed in court that he worked for Goldman Sachs, audio reveals

In audio from a 2017 court appearance at a bail hearing for a "family friend," George Santos can be heard telling a Seattle judge, "I'm an aspiring politician and I work for Goldman Sachs."

The first part was true — five years later, Santos would be indeed be gainfully employed as a politician, representing New York's 3rd Congressional District. But it is now widely known that the second part was not. He never worked for the famous investment firm.

"You work for Goldman Sachs in New York?" the judge asked.
