An associate of Republican Rep. George Santos fretted about the congressman being made into a bobblehead. The private anxiety came to light among pages of text messages released by a House committee. One of the lighter moments in the damning House Ethics Committee report on Santos concerns an associate of Santos' fretting with a congressional staffer over a bobblehead. "If there was a single ounce of ETHICS in the "Ethics committee", they would have not released this biased report," Santos wrote on Twitter. And yes, if you want to, you can still buy a Santos bobblehead from the same company that has made ones depicting Anthony Fauci and Sen. Bernie Sanders sitting at President Joe Biden's inauguration.
