George Santos, the Republican Congressman-elect representing New York’s 3rd Congressional District, admitted that he had lied about his education and work history during his campaign.

In two interviews, published on Dec. 26 by the New York Post and New York-based radio station WABC, Santos said he still plans to take his congressional seat in January and fulfill his campaign compromises despite what he called “resume embellishments.”
