The report details “substantial evidence” that one of the nation’s most famous liars had violated federal laws. It only adds to the long list of news stories that have uncovered how much of what Santos told voters was not true.

New York's highest court rejected an attempt by state Democrats to redraw the congressional maps months ago. In the blue state, Republicans saw significant wins in Tuesday's midterm elections. New York's state constitution bans partisan gerrymandering, unlike other GOP-led states where redistricting maps were upheld. State Democrats had insisted that they did not engage in partisan gerrymandering with the redrawing of the maps.
