August 05 2025, 08:15 Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has urged President Donald Trump to commute the prison sentence of convicted felon George Santos.
The disgraced former congressman was sentenced to 87 months in prison for wire fraud and identity theft after the former New York Republican pleaded guilty to the charges last year.
Now, the US representative and staunch MAGA movement ally has dubbed his seven-year prison term “excessive”.
In a Monday (4 August) letter to the Office of the Pardon Attorney, Greene alleged that Santos’ sentence “for an individual with no prior criminal record extends far beyond what is warranted”.
