Fox News: Ex-lawmaker George Santos faces 7-year prison sentence for federal fraud, identity theft
Former Rep. George Santos faces over seven years in prison after pleading guilty to federal fraud and identity theft charges. He misused campaign funds for personal expenses, lied about his wealth, and collected unemployment benefits while employed. Prosecutors argue his actions undermine the election system.
Santos's legal team seeks a two-year sentence, claiming prosecutors are pursuing headlines rather than justice. He was expelled from Congress after a year due to ethical violations and has a history of fabricating his biography. Sentencing is set for February.

A convicted paedophile was employed by the charity Siobhan’s Trust in Ukraine, which assists vulnerable children, due to significant lapses in vetting. The individual, known as Jack Morgan, worked with children in orphanages and camps after being hired in early 2023.
Concerns arose when he made dubious claims about military service and fundraising. His true identity was revealed in August 2024, causing alarm among volunteers, as he had access to charity vehicles while being paid £500 monthly.

Calley Means faced backlash at the Politico Health Care Summit for criticizing the current American health policy, which he deemed a failure. His comments came after the Department of Health and Human Services announced layoffs of 10,000 federal employees, including officials from agencies like the FDA and NIH.
Means argued that entrenched bureaucrats should not be in charge of reforming a system that has led to high rates of chronic illness in the U.S. He emphasized the need for accountability and a shift in focus towards prevention and health outcomes, rather than pharmaceutical profits.
