Ziwe Fumudoh then mentioned Santos on X, asking if he would be interested "in a pay-per-view interview" with her. The 35-year-old ex-republican representative agreed to her request in an X repost shared on Sunday, December 3, 2023, saying:
"Let's do it @ziwe"

Ziwe Fumudoh's request for an interview comes just days after George Santos was expelled from the House of Representatives for ethics violation. On Friday, December 1, the House voted 311 to 114, with 105 Republicans voting in favor of removing the 35-year-old.

Back in December 2022, it was revealed that Santos had fabricated much of his biography, including his career, educational history, and Jewish heritage. Additionally, the former senator was found guilty of embezzlement.
While Santos denies all charges, he now faces a 23-count inditement related to wire fraud and identity theft. He is set to appear in court in September 2024.
