Former Republican congressman George Santos will appear at a hearing on Monday in federal court on Long Island, where he's expected to plead guilty in his ongoing fraud case where he faces 23 felony charges accusing him of defrauding donors and lying about his finances.
Entering a guilty plea will make a previously scheduled September trial unnecessary, although hundreds of potential jurors have already been summoned and are at the ready, should he change his mind regarding his plea, according to ABC News, with the outlet highlighting that he's known for his surprise decisions.
