Lying Long Island Congressman George Santos will be charged with federal crimes as soon as Wednesday, according to CNN.
It’s unclear what the crimes were and the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District, which includes Long Island, Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island, did not immediately respond to calls for comment.
Federal prosectors filed the charges under seal in federal court in Brooklyn on Tuesday, CNN reported.
The freshman congressman has been under investigation by various law enforcement and ethics bodies, including the House Ethics Committee.
Santos, 34, whose district covers parts of Eastern Queens and Western Long Island, campaigned on a web of lies, including ones about his work history, education and injuries suffered on his college volleyball team, according to a New York Times bombshell expose.
The Republican rep claimed to have worked at Citigroup and Goldman Sachs, but the Times revealed that neither financial firm confirmed employing him.
He also said that he graduated from Baruch College and was injured while playing on the college’s volleyball team — neither of these statements appeared to be true.
Democrats and some New York Republicans have been calling for the congressman to step down.
Santos could not be reached for comment.
