All over the world now, political office seems to be the preferred refuge of anyone facing prison time.

Santos has had enough. He cannot stand to be in a party that lies and swindles it's voter base so he is quitting the Republican party and running as an independent. I swear you cannot make this stuff up.

In other words, the Republican party told him to fuck off.

I have trouble deciding whether he belongs in jail or a mental institution. In either case though I think he needs to be separated from the public. I don't think he feels human empathy and sees people as things

Today he pled guilty to wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. He could get more than more than six years in prison and owes at least $370,000 in restitution. Sentencing Feb 7.
He said he regretted his conduct but I'm pretty sure what he regrets is getting caught.

Buried as almost a foot note in other news .....
Judge tosses George Santos' copyright suit over Jimmy Kimmel prank videos
He needs 32 more folonies
Holy hell, and I thought it was ludicrous that Donald Trump could make it to be POTUS. How this dude could get elected to anything is more surprising. He's completely fake in every way. He's more fake than Borat, and far less funny.

I, and others, have said this before, every time someone gets caught, all of a sudden they are full of remorse. Their real remorse is not for the actual crimes, but as you've noted, that they got caught.
This is probably a plea deal of some type, where he pled guilty to "lesser" crimes because they got a whole lot more on him, which they'll drop for these few convictions.

The local Dems in Nassau County really dropped the ball. However, speaking from experience growing up there, that's not surprising given that Long Island tends to be filled with nincompoops.

Dems in very blue states are often generally asleep at the wheel. See their state governments that struggle to get things done, despite controlling all the levers of power.

He should have hit up whoever was running Joe's pardon press. With over 4200 going out the door is doesn't seem like one more would make a difference. Even spread out over 4 years that's just over 16 every single working day. Whoever had that job made 4200 people very happy.
Man if you didn't like that you're going to be so mad when you learn about what the guy you voted for has been up to with pardons.
It’s like you intentionally try to be as ignorant and obtuse as possible.
He wont be. He’ll just hand wave it away if he bothers to respond at all.
You make it sound like Biden gave 4200 pardon's right before he left office, when infact it was 4245 during all of his 4 years, not as he was going out the door, as you implied. Seems you purposely worded it that way to make it sound worse than it is, which is manipulation, aka lying. Of course you also have to look at the crimes that Biden pardoned during those 4 years as well, which the majority of them where low level crimes. What do you have to say about Trump's 1500+ pardons on day one of his 2nd term, for those traitors who attempted to over throw our government? Oh wait, that's why you tried to manipulate the truth about Biden's pardons, so you could try to make Trump's day one pardon's not look bad. All you have done is confirmed you are just as dishonest and piece of shit as all the other MAGA Trumpers.
