Santos Responds to Outrage Over Trump's Clemency
Former U.S. Representative George Santos has spoken out about his sentence commutation by President Donald Trump, calling criticism of the decision "pearl clutching".
Santos served 84 days of a 7-year sentence for fraud and identity theft before his sentence was commuted.
I am not paying too much attention to the pearl clutching of the outrage of my critics and of the people predominantly on the left who are going to go out there and try to make a big deal out of something like this.
Santos described his time in prison as "a very large slice of humble pie" and expressed readiness for a second chance.
