George Santos Makes EyebrowRaising Claim About Trump Before Going To Jail
"Considering the numerous whoppers former Rep. George Santos made before and after entering office, it makes sense that his last public statement before going to prison would also include a dubious claim.

Santos’ warning post attracted attention from one follower who wondered why no one had pardoned him.
Santos then claimed that House Speaker Mike Johnson had somehow influenced President Donald Trump and nixed the pardon.
“Speaker Johnson Blocked it,” Santos claimed, without providing evidence."
