Tell Lifetime: Keep Tax Evaders Off the Air

Todd and Julie Chrisley defrauded taxpayers out of millions. Now they're being rewarded with a pardon and a new reality TV show.

After being convicted for tax evasion and bank fraud, the Chrisleys were pardoned by Donald Trump in yet another corrupt favor to his celebrity allies. Then, family members announced Lifetime would air a brand-new show starring the disgraced duo. It’s a slap in the face to everyday Americans who follow the rules.

Trump’s pardons have consistently favored his allies and celebrities, often at the expense of justice and public trust in the rule of law. Now, Lifetime is compounding the damage by treating criminal behavior as entertainment.

It’s critical that we show Lifetime and its advertisers that if they promote fraudsters who steal our tax dollars, it’ll cost the network far more in the long run.

Tell Lifetime: Keep the Chrisleys off the air. Don't turn fraud into a feel-good comeback story. 

This is bigger than bad reality TV. It’s about power, privilege, and who gets to escape consequences. While working families struggle to get by, Lifetime is giving the Chrisleys a chance to cash in—again.

There are plenty of stories worth telling—stories of resilience, justice, and real redemption. Glorifying convicted fraudsters is not one of them.

We must act now to demand accountability from Lifetime so they cancel this show before it airs. Rewarding bad actors with more fame and fortune erodes public trust and emboldens others to cheat the system.

Sign the petition now and stand up for accountability.
