George Santos admits ‘personal’ loans to campaign were not from personal funds

New campaign finance filings reported by Daily Beast do not shed light on real source of $600,000 in funding

In a new twist to one of the most bizarre American political scandals in decades, the New York Republican congressman George Santos appeared to admit on Tuesday that more than $600,000 in loans to his campaign did not come from personal funds, as was originally claimed.

But new campaign finance filings first reported by the Daily Beast did not shed light on where the funds actually came from.
