President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he plans to grant full pardons to Todd and Julie Chrisley, the stars of the reality TV show Chrisley Knows Best. The couple rose to fame portraying a tight-knit, faith-centered Southern family enjoying an extravagant lifestyle. In 2022, they were convicted of defrauding banks in the Atlanta out of more than $30 million and evading taxes. The pardons come amid Trump's broader pattern of granting clemency to high-profile allies and supporters, sparking renewed debate over the use of presidential pardon powers. In a social media post, the White House said Trump personally called their daughter, Savannah Chrisley, to deliver the news, quipping, "Trump Knows Best!" Savannah could be heard on the call thanking the president.
