George Santos Wants To Be Donald Trump's Head of ICE
Donald Trump has not even won the Republican nomination yet, but several MAGA personalities are now coming forward to ask him for a job. This includes George Santos, with the former New York congressman taking to social media to ask Trump for a job, specifically asking to be the next director of the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
"It's time to reclaim our country and if you believe the nonsense numbers the media is giving you then you are accepting the big lie," said the man who was known as the "Lying Congressman" before he was expelled from Congress.
"We have over 50M+ people who have invaded our sovereignty over the years due to careless and neglectful immigration policy, if given the job I know exactly where to start and run the much needed raids of removals proceedings this country needs," he continued to claim in an effort to be noticed by Donald Trump.
However, Newsweek noted that it was not clear where Santos got those numbers from. Data from the US Census Bureau placed the number of unauthorized immigrants in the country at approximately 10.5 million in 2021.
As to why Santos wanted the job as the director of ICE, he says, "Enough abuse and disregard for our sovereignty, we are the United States OF America and not a global dumping hub." He added, "ICE has had their hands tied for far too long with the sole exception of the great four years of DJT. The time is now and that's why I'm putting my name in the mix for a role that will take grit and a fearless person and not a coward that will fear media spin."

George Santos Claims He Makes More Money From Cameo Than in Congress
Soon after he was expelled from Congress over his various scandals, George Santos has been making money on Cameo, replacing his $174,000 of federal income to earning around $200 - $500 for each personalized video on the platform.
In an interview with CBS New York, Santos now claims he makes more money than he ever did as a lawmaker, telling the interviewer, "I can tell you that by the end of this week, that is actually factual. I will have made more money in seven days than I would've made in an entire year in Congress."
George Santos May Still Have Not Reported His Personal Finances
While claiming he is earning more money now than he has ever done as a lawmaker, anti-corruption watchdog, CREW, pointed out that Santos may have still not done one of the things he was in trouble with in the first place, and that is reporting his personal finances.
A report from the organization stated that Santos was given a new deadline last weekend to submit his personal finances, the fourth one in total. However, he "apparently missed yet another deadline to file yet another legally required financial disclosure."
Santos is required to submit a final financial disclosure, or at least request an extension, within 30 days of leaving office. Crew revealed that he has not done that yet after being extended for a fourth time.
