How long has Nassau County Republican Party Chairman Joe Cairo known George Santos? Since at least Sept 24 2019. Cairo w Santos & Lee Greenwood, Brookville, late Aug 2022....
Presumably, George Santos told Joe Cairo something about himself in Sept 2019. At the very least, I would think Santos gave Cairo's staff the address of his apartment in Whitestone or wherever he was living at the time...
By the time Santos met Cairo on Sept 24 2019, the Santos campaign had already hired Nancy Marks as treasurer & paid her $505 on Sept 11 2019. The first statement of organization was filed w the FEC on Oct 2 2019...
I think that might be newly elected Congressman @ANTHONYDESPO on the left & the date was prob Sept 23 2019 since Santos tweeted about the meeting shortly after midnight on Sept 24 2019...
As an aside, I don't where the Lawrence Kadish Conference Room is located but here's a 2010 profile of Kadish....

On Oct 16 2019, the Devolder Santos For Congress campaign paid the Nassau County Republican Committee (federal account) $2000 for an event at the same Westbury address...
Uh? On the Dec 31 2019 Detailed Summary filed w the FEC on Jan 31 2020, the Devolder Santos campaign reported $3022.19 in disbursements but if you look at the date of individual disbursements, the Santos campaign spent $9.8k in that same period...
This is a deep in the weeds FEC reporting issue that I've been trying to understand re image i.d & transaction numbers. I don't know enough about how transactions are reported to the FEC is the problem...
Getting sidetracked. Point of this thread is Joe Cairo has known Santos for more than three years. When Santos was spouting off about owning a mansion in Oyster Bay & being a successful financier in Aug 2022, Cairo didn't know he was lying? Give me a break...
If I could, I'd ask Grant Lally, owner of the N Shore Leader & Maureen Daly, author of the Sept 2022 article calling Santos a fraud who they shared their concerns with. Lally's been involved w the Nassau GOP most of his life...
Grant Lally's mother, Ute Wolff Lally was sworn in as a Nassau County Supreme Court judge in 1996. If I'm not mistaken, that's Nassau County Executive Thomas Gulotta in the photo on the lower left....
Grant Lally's bio. Lally supported Ted Cruz & I believe he was Cruz's NYS campaign manager. Seen here w Heidi Cruz, Gavin Wax, NYYRC president & Maureen Daly...
In addition to writing for the North Shore Leader, Maureen Daly owns Gotham Strategies, a consulting firm..
You think Joe Cairo & Bruce Blakeman didn't know James C Metzger was a "client" of Santos' company, the Devolder Organization? Metzger's in business w Matt Bruderman & was on Blakeman's transition team...
