President Trump is expected to pardon reality TV stars Todd and Julie Chrisley, who were convicted on bank fraud and tax evasion charges, as early as Wednesday.

White House officials shared video of Trump talking to the Chrisleys' children, including Savannah Chrisley, over the phone in the Oval Office to inform them of the impending pardon.

"Your parents are going to be free and clean, and I hope we can do it by tomorrow," Trump says in video of the call.

"I don't know them, but give them my regards," he adds.

Trump was joined for the call by Alice Johnson, whose sentence he commuted during his first term and who he has made his “pardon czar."

Todd and Julie Chrisley were the stars of the reality series, "Chrisley Knows Best," which chronicled their life in Georgia. Todd and Julie Chrisley were sentenced to 12 years in prison plus 16 months of probation and seven years behind bars and 16 months of probation, respectively. They were convicted in 2022 on charges including bank fraud and tax evasion.

Savannah Chrisley spoke at the Republican National Convention (RNC) last July, where she used her remarks to assert that her parents were the victims of a "two-faced justice system," echoing rhetoric used by Trump and his supporters to downplay his legal troubles.
