George Santos, the former congressman, is set to begin a prison sentence of over seven years due to wire fraud and identity theft crimes. In a farewell social media post, he reflected on his tumultuous political journey, describing it as "messy" yet "glamorous" while acknowledging his misleading claims regarding his credentials. He expressed gratitude to both supporters and critics. Santos was expelled from Congress in December 2023 and later pleaded guilty to multiple federal felonies, receiving a sentence from US district judge Joanna Seybert for his actions.
Well, darlings... The curtain falls, the spotlight dims, and the rhinestones are packed. From the halls of Congress to the chaos of cable news, what a ride it's been! Was it messy? Always. Glamorous? Occasionally. Honest? I tried... most days. To my supporters: You made this wild political cabaret worth it.
After becoming the first out gay politician to be expelled from US Congress in December 2023, Santos pleaded guilty to 23 federal felony crimes, including aggravated identity theft and wire fraud.
