“Former Rep. George Santos (R-NY), who faces more than seven years behind bars after pleading guilty to wire fraud and identity theft, revealed this week that he will be seeking clemency from President Trump,” The Hill reports.
Said Santos: “I’ll take a commutation, clemency, whatever the president is willing to give me.
”He added: “Seven years and three months in prison for a first-time offender over campaign matters just screams ‘over the top,’ and I would appreciate if the president would consider.”
