Savannah Chrisley was just buying groceries when her phone rang with life-changing news, President Donald Trump was on the line. Overwhelmed with tears, she heard the president confirm he had signed off on her parents’ release after three years behind bars. Todd and Julie Chrisley, reality TV stars convicted in 2022 of defrauding banks of $30 million, were finally pardoned. Savannah called it a miracle and thanked the administration for reuniting her family. Though the pardon sparked social media outrage, with critics calling it “celebrity privilege,” Savannah has long claimed the case was politically motivated, especially since it was prosecuted by a Trump-appointed attorney.
