George Santos is a man who loves the spotlight. It doesn’t matter that he’s fallen from grace, power, and access to public funds for his Botox treatments: a troll loves to troll, and Santos is a troll to beat the band.

Wednesday on the cursed bird app, Santos teased a major fall from grace for Kamala Harris, stating that he just got off a call “with a source” and that today’s October surprise is going to be enough to make Democrats urge everyone to vote for Trump.

To which a chorus of Democrats across the world responded: “over my dead body!”

Now it’s Friday, and we’re all waiting for this bombshell that’s going to transform democrats into Trump-loving Bible thumpers. And…crickets.

It probably will surprise no one to learn that this alleged bombshell never went off. And now Santos is showing up with the usual excuses…

No word as of yet what the very LARGE publication might be, but we’re thinking something along the lines of the Babylon Bee.

In recent months, Trump supporters have tried desperately to spread falsehoods about Harris and Walz, including a gross, homophobic lie about Walz’s past that was swiftly debunked. But it’s an attention economy, and grifters are going to stop at nothing to catch our attention as we lead up to voting day.

Santos is “consulting with legal” about the “cover up” as we speak. In a video posted today, he claims that this report is not a bid for attention but instead a serious report comparable to “the laptop story of 2020,” referring of course to the notorious Hunter Biden laptop scandal.

But that story didn’t prevent Biden from getting elected, and whatever Santos has up his sleeve promises to be similarly pointless. But go off, king!

We’ll see if this amounts to anything, but chances are whatever leak Santos puts out will result in a whimper, not a bang.
