New York House Republicans believe they are close to the two-thirds needed to expel Rep. George Santos

Recently elected House Speaker Mike Johnson said, "We got a lot of discussions this week, we'll see what happens," when asked about the Santos expulsion resolution and censure resolutions for Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Rashida Tlaib.

When asked if he will motion to table the Santos resolution or bring it for a vote this week, Johnson said off camera, "We'll see, I am not commenting right now."to expel Santos from Congress. He was joined by four other New York Republicans, U.S. Reps. Nick LaLota, Michael Lawler, Marc Molinaro and Brandon Williams.Expelling Santos requires a two-thirds majority. For that to happen, every Democrat would have to vote to expel and dozens of Republicans would have to also approve.

The New York Republican pleaded not guilty to 10 new charges Friday at a courthouse on Long Island. He has already pleaded not guilty to 13 other charges filed in May.
