The Bets Are in 2026 Donald Will Pardon 2 Famous Liars
 |
Asked if he would pardon George Santos, Trump said “he lied like hell,” before adding, “he was 100 percent for Trump.” “His vote was solid,” Trump added. Without specifying who he is referring to, Trump then said “they” have spoken to him about pardoning Combs but not “the two.” The other two would seem to be a reference to the other two people the Newsmax reporter asked about: George Santos and Ghislaine Maxwell, the longtime associate of Jeffrey Epstein.
Ghislaine Maxwell, the longtime associate of Jeffrey Epstein now serving a 20-year prison sentence for sexually exploiting and abusing teenage girls, has been moved from a federal prison in Florida to minimum-security prison camp in Texas, her lawyer said on Friday.
The move, which was reported earlier by The New York Sun, came about a week after Ms. Maxwell was interviewed over two daysabout the Epstein case by Todd Blanche, the No. 2 official in the Justice Department and one of President Trump’s former lawyers.
April 25, 2025: Mr. Santos is sentenced to more than 7 years in prison
Prosecutors had asked for Mr. Santos to be sentenced to 87 months, arguing that such a punishment would be proportionate to the “breadth, scope and predatory nature” of his crimes. Lawyers for Mr. Santos had asked for the minimum sentence of two years.
Judge Joanna Seybert sided with the prosecutors, giving Mr. Santos until late July to surrender.
“Mr. Santos, words have consequences,” the judge said. “You got elected with your words, most of which were lies.”
