According to the news article written by Marisa Kabas on the Substack site The Handbasket, George Santos, who’s reportedly gone by a number of aliases in his truth-challenged past, appears to be depicted in a photo in a drag costume from 2008.
The latest look into Santos’ younger years was revealed to Kabas by Eula Rochard, a drag queen in Brazil and former friend of Santos.
Santos and Rochard met when Rochard was already an established drag queen in a Brazilian city next to Rio de Janeiro. The freshman congressman became a national punch line after he was caught in a series of lies about his college education, employment history, and Jewish heritage, among other tall tales that keep tallying up.
The personal story that he campaigned on was largely disproven shortly before his first term in office was about to begin following a bombshell report in the New York Times.
The lawmaker’s long list of lies and his questionable campaign financing are under investigation by local, state, and federal officials — while prosecutors in Brazil have reopened a fraud case against him from 2008.
Rochard said she saw Santos on Brazilian television recently and messaged her friends from when she knew Santos that she thought it was him. When her friends doubted her, she found the old photo and posted it on Instagram.
She told Kabas, “The picture was taken in 2008 at the Pride Parade at Icarai Beach in Niteroi. George had disappeared for a little while, and then returned to Brazil with a lot of money, and that was about the same time when the picture was taken.”
In a tweet this morning, Santos has denied these allegations writing, "The most recent obsession from the media claiming that I am a drag Queen or 'performed' as a drag Queen is categorically false. The media continues to make outrageous claims about my life while I am working to deliver results. I will not be distracted nor fazed by this."
