George Santos<\/strong> is saying a big “f*** you” to everyone at HBO … vowing to go after the channel\/streaming platform for developing a new movie about his controversial political career.<\/p>\n The recently-booted congressman sounded off to TMZ after HBO optioned the rights to Mark Chiusano<\/strong>‘s new book “The Fabulist: The Lying, Hustling, Grifting, Stealing, and Very American Legend of George Santos” … blasting it as defamatory and misappropriating his name and likeness.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Santos says he has zero involvement in the “fictitious story” the movie plans to sell to the American people … and is vexed about the filmmakers and book’s author not speaking to him or getting authorization to write about him.<\/p>\n However, he says he’s not concerned about how he’ll be represented in the doc … because he’s working on a project that best fits his narrative. As for HBO, Santos vented, “F*** them and their chicken s*** deal with no inside information or reality of facts.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We’re not sure how he’ll navigate any potential comeback trail following his expulsion from Congress<\/strong> last week … but ya gotta applaud the hustle.<\/p>\n The decision came following a controversial time in office, which included multiple felony charges<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For now, he’s been busy advising his fans to “let the haters hate” on Cameo<\/strong> for $200 a vid.<\/p>\n
