Trump Pardons Reality Stars Todd and Julie Chrisley Following Tax Evasion and Bank Fraud Convictions

Source: Variety

President Donald Trump has fully pardoned Todd and Julie Chrisley after the reality stars were convicted of tax evasion and bank fraud in 2022.

White House communications advisor Margo Martin posted a video to X on Tuesday of Trump on the phone with their daughter Savannah Chrisley, delivering the news that he will fully pardon her parents.

“It’s a terrible thing, but it’s a great thing because your parents are going to be free and clean, and I hope we can do it by tomorrow,” Trump told Savannah Chrisley in the video. “We’ll try getting it done tomorrow. I don’t know them, but give them my regards and wish them a good life.”

Trump went on to say that Todd and Julie Chrisley were given “a pretty harsh treatment” for their crimes.

And why wouldn't he? He's immune from prosecution, thanks to the far-right extremists of the Supreme Court.
