Oops, the most corrupt admin in US history, did it again.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-commutes-sentence-george-santos-rcna238293

President Donald Trump said Friday that he had signed a commutation that would immediately release former Rep. George Santos, R-N.Y., from prison.

“George has been in solitary confinement for long stretches of time and, by all accounts, has been horribly mistreated,” Trump posted on Truth Social Friday evening. “Therefore, I just signed a Commutation, releasing George Santos from prison, IMMEDIATELY. Good luck George, have a great life!”

In April, Santos was sentenced to more than seven years in prison.

Last year, he pleaded guilty to charges of committing wire fraud and aggravated identity theft, conduct that prosecutors said was part of a yearslong scheme that preyed upon the campaign finance system and his own political party, donors and family members to line his own pockets.

A senior White House official said Trump made the decision to help Santos this week. The official added that “many people wrote to him about it.”

“The reach-outs on this that President Trump got were overwhelming," another White House official said. "He heard from so many people, and in recent days he decided it was the right decision. It’s his call, and he made it.”

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., has publicly campaigned for a Santos pardon. In an interview with NBC News this week, she said she had been in contact with the Department of Justice in recent weeks regarding the possibility.

Another puppet for his arsenal.

This is the face of the modern Republican party

Republicans look out for their own kind, unlike the Democrats…

Bullshit. Who the absolute fuck was going ‘justice for Santos?’ Nevermind that he was found guilty and pleaded guilty.
>>
>>1448764
Technically that's a requirement of all pardons, the president can't pardon you for anything that didn't happen or is contested, so you plea guilty but don't get any sentence. All of the J6 people who took the pardon also admitted guilt by doing so.
>>
>>1448768
Even Republicans hated him because he was stealing their shit to pay for beauty treatments and onlyfans subs.

>Republicans will literally bail out anyone simply for being Republican
>Democrats actually hold their own accountable

Probably Democrats to generate negative press.

lel Fagocrats attacked one of their own letter people because there's a much more important letter.

Anyway, they sentenced this fucking retard queer to like 7 years in prison for things Democrats in New York do on the reg.

Maybe they should have prosecuted Adams instead of trying to get it dismissed without prejudice so they could hold it over his head like the sword of damocles. They couldn't even do that right, the judge saw right through them and made it with prejudice.
>>
>>1448799
*In New York.

>>1448799
I think anon's point was more about Democrats leading the charge against Santos, a brown gay, which is like a Democrat dream representative, since Santos paid Republicans $20 to use their name.
>>
>>1448803
So why did Trump pardon a brown, gay RINO criminal?
>>
>>1448799
name a republican that doesn't grift their own people, anon
>>
>>1448804
It's called "compassion" and it's in the article, in fact, it's in the OP post on the 3rd line.
And personally I believe Trump made a mistake on this one, as hanging trannies is really the only way to deal with them.
>>
>Convicted fraudster Republican president pardons convicted fraudster Republican representative
Shills: BUT MUH DEMOCRATS
>>
>>1448767
>Republicans look out for their own kind
Santos defrauded Republicans. The fuck are you talking about?
>>
>>1448806
>It's called "compassion"
Sociopaths aren't capable of compassion and most of the pardon announcement centered on dunking on a Dem opponent to Trump as somehow worse than Santos, therefore Santos deserved to go free if he was free. Seems more like a crass bid at scoring political points.
>>
>>1448834
He's talking about Santos being a dyed in the wool conservative, which is true.
>>
>>1448862
>Republicans
>conservative
Lmao
>>
Guess Donny's up for sum surprise
>>
>>1448862
We'll never know since he was booted out, and rightfully so.
But I'll tell you a small-little fact, most men in dresses aren't exactly conservative.
>>
>>1448862
>dyed in the wool conservative
Debatable. What is absolutely true is that Santos scammed multiple people for thousands of dollars. Like he wasn't just kicked out and arrested for lying about his identity and background; the guy legitimately stole peoples personal info, scammed multiple people including his campaign, other republicans, and his constituents, and spent it all on personal shit like skin care and only fans.
>>
Good. We need a new Pope. The old one is too woke.
>>
>>1448870
>We'll never know
We do know since he was elected by being on the Trump train in 2020.
