Political points, or politically motivated donations? I’m betting it’s all about the Benjamins.
I thought his name was George?
It might be. Or not. No one really knows.
He’s George-ish.
George-adjacent.
Funny…he doesn’t look George-ish
Sentencing expected to take place this Friday.
Santos writes letter to judge, requesting a mulligan for his social media posts. Santos says he was just referring to the prosecutor’s requested sentence of 7 years: “My posts may be colorful but they don’t justify a sentence triple the norm, and the government should be ashamed of itself for even seeking such a high sentence.”
Santos’ is insincerity is one thing. My problem is that he is unconvincing. For the sake of deterrence, the court should make an example of him. I admit it might be amusing to release him in 2028.
87 months.
George Santos Sentenced to 7 Years in Prison
Good. Wonder if he’ll be pardoned just to provoke the left.
I can picture Santos telling the guards he’s been pardoned so they should unlock his cell door and let him leave.
Will Trump pardon him?

Worth a shot.
I can picture George pleading that he needs to be given a compassionate release because all three of his mothers are dying and he is too of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva which he clumsily reads off his hand while squinting at it.
First thing we teach the new guys; if a prisoner tells you you’re supposed to let him go, always check with the sergeant first.
The police went to pick up George at his house and his residence now has a new occupant, Kitara Ravache. Kitara claims George has fled the country.
"Please excuse Santos from prison today, both of his mothers are dying.
- Signed, Santos’s Mother"
Well played.
Harsh sentence of 87 months, plus 2 years supervised release. From the NYT:
But prosecutors disclosed that Mr. Santos had not paid any restitution, despite earning $360,000 recording personalized videos on the app Cameo after he was expelled by his peers in Congress.
And prosecutors, casting doubt on his intention to pay back his victims, said that over the last year, Mr. Santos had rented a second home in Pennsylvania, driven a Jaguar and sported a Rolex watch.
I wonder what a guy like that would do if he wanted to earn an honest living. Cameo wasn’t a bad choice, but it will be hard to make it work in 2032.
“Hi, I’m George Santos. Welcome to Jackass.”
I guess we will never know at this point! (Let’s be honest, we never would have found out.)
What makes you think he has any intention of earning an honest living? He’s just fine with making a dishonest living.
