Disgraced former congressman George Santos has asked a judge to delay his sentencing on federal fraud charges until the summer so he can pay off more than $500,000 in fines with revenue from a new podcast.

The gay fabulist former-congressman’s wants approval to have his latest venture to keep him out of prison until late-summer.

Santos' lawyers requested the delay on the grounds that Santos needs more time to "generate sufficient funds" in order to pay the judgment and cited a delay in the launch of his podcast.
