jxkstraw.bsky.social•3 days ago

Pardon in 3..2..1..

djjakej.bsky.social•2 days ago

Trump Pardon in 3,2,1

sardarji.bsky.social•3 days ago

To be followed by a Trump pardon.

lovovmelife.bsky.social•3 days ago

So trumps gonna pardon a target of Trump’s DOJ? Maybe if Santos had a lot of money to make it worth the bribery, but this feels more symbolic

mwoodpen.bsky.social•2 days ago

Now do Trump.

natesmith.dev•2 days ago

cool now do all the congresspeople who engage in insider trading

plusbleuciel.bsky.social•2 days ago

The scent of pardon is wafting from the White House

sroliver1954.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump will just pardon him afterward

jeffunktified.bsky.social•2 days ago

If only he had a million dollars… he would definitely have a pardon

lenckell.bsky.social•3 days ago

I can think of a few others with "unrestrained greed and voracious appetite for fame" who remain unindicted.

bobsyourunclelou.bsky.social•2 days ago

what about the unrestrained greed of the current administration and his band of miscreants?

bluedotredwithrage.bsky.social•2 days ago

If only we could see some accountability for one 34x convicted felon….

bubbles9333.bsky.social•2 days ago

George Santos gets an UM Trophy.

nanamom2021.bsky.social•3 days ago

7 years is too good for that fraudulent little toadie.
I vote for 70.

getamop.bsky.social•2 days ago

Sounds very republican

princeofnice.bsky.social•2 days ago

This description seems to fit the guy in the White House perfectly, but he got no time for his crimes, despite being convicted.

mkhammr.bsky.social•2 days ago

Oh come on, greed is good, it's the American way, the air that I breathe!

jcm444.bsky.social•2 days ago

Now do Trump.

jake2404663.bsky.social•2 days ago

Nail his conman ass to the wall.

goldenstatecats.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump and the entire GOP have displayed
“unrestrained greed and voracious appetite for fame enabled ‘them’ to exploit the very system that elected them”

jasonswritings.bsky.social•3 days ago

Maybe I'm missing something because there's so much but how is this even happening with the corrupt commander-in-chief who bails every criminal out at this point if they like him? This is state and he hasn't put his disgusting hands all over it yet? Is that what it is? Thanks.

kincheloe.bsky.social•3 days ago

now do 47

pegbear.bsky.social•3 days ago

Do you really think 47 will pardon a gay man?

sunshipballon.bsky.social•3 days ago

they spelled Donald Trump wrong

gavinneedham.bsky.social•3 days ago

My favourite moment in the most recent Broadway revival of Spamalot during the sequence about needing Jews to succeed on Broadway, they projected names of famous Jewish people and of course included George Santos.

UPDATE: George Santos asks to be sentenced to 2 years in prison https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.497086/gov.uscourts.nyed.497086.115.0.pdf

louise007.bsky.social•2 days ago

Great and the 🍊🤡 should be getting at least the same if not more time in prison.

jeffunktified.bsky.social•2 days ago

Someone must’ve gotten rich by accepting a bribe why he’s not in prison.

ergoone.bsky.social•3 days ago

If he asks for two years, he deserves many times that number. But so do many who were not tried despite loads of evidence. :/

kybourbon.bsky.social•3 days ago

Sounds like he’s ready for salad duty.

sunkissedpeaks.bsky.social•3 days ago

🤣

lmhinh.bsky.social•3 days ago

I guess the judge sentences him to 3.5 years

alliincali.bsky.social•3 days ago

And then get ready folks because I promise he is going to attempt a come back

mattdos205.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump will pardon him...

norreebee.bsky.social•3 days ago

I don’t think so

grannydoodle.bsky.social•3 days ago

@thatcattc.bsky.social

zendork.bsky.social•3 days ago

For a crisp fiver and a bag of funyuns George can get one of those pardon thingys

marthskoien.bsky.social•2 days ago

💙

davidra59.bsky.social•2 days ago

Trump will allow him to go free...

tallphoenix.bsky.social•2 days ago

You could feasibly apply that same reasoning to our puppet king. And tack on a lot more charges. But there stood the Supreme Court, and here we are.

flywrangler.bsky.social•2 days ago

Agree. We are where we are because of SCOTUS. They have fully enabled him. Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh should be imprisoned for treason

fixthetimeline.bsky.social•3 days ago

Guess Santos was just a solo small time grifter that pissed off the GOP criminal organization.

If he had a GOP sponsor he would be defended by the RW media echo chamber machine.

ne1970.bsky.social•3 days ago

I’m surprised he’s not I. Trump’s cabinet.

winifrieda.bsky.social•3 days ago

Is this THE legendary, the mythical, the fabled George Santos? But arresting someone who disagrees with you is alarming? I dunno anything can and does happen in the failed state of drumperica

winifrieda.bsky.social•3 days ago

Wait being 🇦🇺 I mixed him up with George SOROS

themadstatist.bsky.social•3 days ago

Almost comical now considering the illegitimate occupant of the WH.

flywrangler.bsky.social•2 days ago

An excellent start. We must stop the ruthless lying, cheating, and deceit in government.

hylen26.bsky.social•2 days ago

Lock him up.

mtnrider.bsky.social•3 days ago

So then MUSK should get 77 years

nnekawilliams.bsky.social•2 days ago

Ok now do Trump

2020willbelit.bsky.social•2 days ago

Do DJT NEXT!!

besmith.bsky.social•3 days ago

I'm waiting for the Madison Cawthorn indictment because he knows too much

fortpointchannel.bsky.social•2 days ago

Six months house arrest and a presidential pardon by year’s end

staycalmandcarryon.bsky.social•2 days ago

Funny-you could just swipe out GS for DT without changing a word. No not funny at all.

headdoc35.bsky.social•2 days ago

I’m pissed it’s a Federal case. IQ47 might pardon him. But I’m hoping because, Santos is broke & has nothing to quid pro quo with him, that his ass cooks in a cell for all the lies, fraud and the people he’s hurt.

sammymads303.bsky.social•2 days ago

He’s got enough dirt to shift the majority

wtpmary.bsky.social•2 days ago

Let justice be done

lordp666.bsky.social•2 days ago

How this man convinced himself he would get away with all this crap is beyond my understanding.

freyalux.bsky.social•2 days ago

👏👏😂😂🤣🤣🤣

ellem111.bsky.social•2 days ago

Has Santos' US citizenship ever been verified? He claims dual citizenship Brazil/US but he lies.

kt65.bsky.social•2 days ago

Ironic

doodlemama24.bsky.social•2 days ago

Not good enough

cstackpole.bsky.social•2 days ago

Where's Trumps sentence?

mztexblu.bsky.social•2 days ago

I don’t care two shits about this guy, but the hypocrisy is dripping from the page!

diamondstar1962.bsky.social•2 days ago

Now do Trump and his cronies because if you want to talk about greed m, they are up there with that appetite and plus more.

martymcd.bsky.social•3 days ago

That would seem to be manifestly excessive tbh?

komue.bsky.social•2 days ago

Select representatives like #Musk? 🤨

jonathanjoshua.com•3 days ago

So are we thinking a pardon and then he'll be Senate confirmed?

designer4hasand.bsky.social•3 days ago

Please don’t ignore me 🫂

designer4hasand.bsky.social•3 days ago

My friend🫂, the current circumstances are extremely difficult, and any help from you will greatly contribute to improving our situation. If you can share my story or provide financial support, we would be deeply grateful. These days are a tough test for us.❤️😥

returnjon.bsky.social•3 days ago

Finally, some good news

enzololo.bsky.social•3 days ago

He deserves more than that!

stevethdemocrat.bsky.social•2 days ago

When does he get his pardon? 😒

margrim.bsky.social•3 days ago

Wait for the pardon and cabinet nomination.

sealblue.bsky.social•2 days ago

too bad justice didn't arrive on time for trump

bsbeamer.bsky.social•3 days ago

Didn’t expect this from the Friday agenda.

allencasey.bsky.social•2 days ago

If Santos gets 87 months, Trump should get 870.

riolindamex.bsky.social•2 days ago

FREE SEX ?????!!!!!!!!😬

hawaiigurl02.bsky.social•3 days ago

So if he gets 87 months, what would Trump get? 87 lifetimes?

kalachama.bsky.social•2 days ago

So there is a pale, and he's beyond it?

🍿pardon...👀🙈🥴

mullinshere.bsky.social•2 days ago

From the people who brought you the counter-anthem "He Just Like Us."

mitla96.bsky.social•2 days ago

What? And Trump roams free??

lifesabeach.bsky.social•2 days ago

Trump pardon incoming !

wildcat-russell.bsky.social•2 days ago

Good. Now let’s do the same for the liars and crooks in power.

blueanimallover.bsky.social•3 days ago

Now do Trump.

dogstar2005.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump will pardon this guy. The more deplorable the higher the likelihood.

juandefuca.bsky.social•3 days ago

pardon coming....

gbliss.bsky.social•3 days ago

Sounds like someone else I know. 🤔

richeys-riches.bsky.social•2 days ago

Now do 47

bboptop.bsky.social•2 days ago

It should've been 🍊Shitler going off to prison for at least 7 years.

medievalmonkey.bsky.social•3 days ago

Was this approved by the pro-crime, pro-fraud, pro-bribe WH?

Should we be expecting a pardon in the next few days?

Will he be put in charge of the Kennedy Center? The Smithsonian?
