Trump pardons reality TV stars Todd and Julie Chrisley after lobbying campaign from daughter Savannah

President Donald Trump pardoned reality television stars Todd and Julie Chrisley on Tuesday, calling their daugher Savannah and informing her of his decision.

The Chrisleys, who starred in the television show Chrisley Knows Best and several spin-offs, were found guilty in 2022 of defrauding banks out of $30 million.

Julie Chrisley is serving time in Kentucky, while Todd Chrisley is serving time in Florida.

White House aide Margo Martin revealed the pardon by posting video of the president on the phone with Savannah, captioning the post: 'Trump Knows Best!' a play on the couple's breakout reality TV show title.

While pushing for a pardon, 27-year-old Savannah has become a fixture in MAGAworld.

She attended the 2024 Republican National Convention and the 2024 Conservative Political Action Conference - both events where Trump was the headliner and aides and allies were everywhere.

Chrisley appeared on the sidelines of last month's White House Correspondents' Dinner.

The lobbying effort paid off when Savannah received a call Tuesday from the Oval Office.

‘ Nothing prosecuted by a leftist DOJ, tried in front of a leftist judge, or involving the FBI can be trusted. All of those vermin are corrupt and every action should be questioned.’

Pardon Bob Menendez! Now.

“... were found guilty in 2022 of defrauding banks out of $30 million.”

Do we know if that’s true? I am sus of ANY federal convictions between January 2021 and January 2025.

If there was any inkling that they were, or ever had been, MAGA, who knows what the judges and prosecutors concicted to be able to lock them up?

Maybe Trump did it for the Gay vote as Todd is queer as a 3 dollar bill...


Agree. I caught a few minutes of that show on a hotel TV and the faggotry was intense.

I really don’t care if they were pardoned.

I care about the trail of bodies in the C’s path. I care about the broken daughter of a President from him showering with her, I want the stolen election to be exposed.

I dont’ care about these two people.

People still haven’t wised up. Still too many believe the narratives and will argue there isn’t a narrative by the demo-commies. They’ve been so conditioned; they’re like fish not noticing the water they breath and swim in and arguing water is a myth or conspiracy theory. We used to call them suckers. But apparently today that isn’t considered ‘polite’.

I think the MSM is intentionally downplaying the reason. Reading between the lines here:

I’m guessing it was because the sentencing was harsher for these conservatives than the sentencing routinely given to others. The original judge called them the Trumps of the South. So while I agree they are criminals, I don’t think they should be targeted unfairly. The MSM isn’t going to tell us the details.

A good while back he was having relations with his former business partner I had read and he wanted Todd to leave his wife and he would not and so this former business partner did some things that compounded his charges later down the road a bit. His oldest kids ratted him out and the rest is history.

I imagine that she was sorry as Hell she got caught and sent to prison. But that was as far as the sorry went. But that was not her first rodeo and it won’t be long before she is into something else.

Now that they learned that they can steal, get caught and get away with it. There is a good chance that they will go into politics. There is already 435 more or less of their brethren and fellow travelers in the House of Representatives. And 100 in the Senate. At least they will be with their Peers.

Very queer. Probably made lots of new friends in prison.
