唐纳德·特朗普总统减刑了前众议员乔治·桑托斯的监禁刑期，桑托斯因欺诈和身份盗用被判处七年多监禁。桑托斯是纽约共和党人，去年四月因承认电信欺诈和加重身份盗用罪被判刑。他于七月开始在新泽西费尔顿联邦惩教机构服刑。
特朗普在周五的一条社交媒体帖子中表示：“我刚刚签署了一项减刑令，立即释放乔治·桑托斯出狱。”他形容桑托斯“有些像个‘流氓’，但我们国家有很多流氓却没有被迫服七年监禁。”
桑托斯曾请求宽恕，辩称他的刑期对初犯者来说过重且具有政治动机。众议员玛乔丽·泰勒·格林也敦促白宫减刑，称这是“一项严重的不公正”，是司法权力过度扩张的结果。
桑托斯在国会任职不到一年，于2023年12月被开除，他承认在竞选期间捏造了生活中的重要细节。他被控多项联邦罪行，包括欺诈、盗窃、洗钱和作虚假陈述。
特朗普减刑桑托斯的决定，继此前对前共和党政治人物的赦免行动之后，包括对前众议员迈克尔·格里姆和前康涅狄格州州长约翰·罗兰的赦免。
桑托斯的减刑引发了关于司法系统公平性和一致性的讨论，尤其是涉及被定罪的政治人物。
