Reality Star Savannah Chrisley to Criticize DOJ in Primetime RNC Slot

Savannah Chrisley is set to make an appearance at the Republican National Convention on Tuesday night, where she plans to address the Department of Justice critically.

The reality star, whose parents Todd and Julie Chrisley are currently in prison for tax evasion and bank fraud, shared her intentions with TMZ on Tuesday. “We need to have a justice system that is fair, and right now, we have a very two-faced justice system,” Chrisley remarked, also labeling the department “corrupt.”

Savannah has been a vocal advocate for her parents since their incarceration in January 2023. She has put in significant effort to overturn their convictions. Notably, a change was recently made in Julie’s case after judges ruled she should be resentenced, according to ABC News. Currently, Julie and Todd are serving 12 years and seven years, respectively.

Savannah has also expressed her support for former president Donald Trump’s reelection campaign through her social media channels. During Trump’s hush money trial, she posted a photo of herself with Trump on Instagram, accompanied by a lengthy caption expressing her thoughts.

“Today weighs heavy on my heart as we witness the verdict regarding President Donald J. Trump. It is undeniably a somber day, not only for his supporters but for anyone who believes in the principles of fairness and justice,” her caption read in part. “Alongside my sadness, there is also a profound sense of concern regarding the perceived abuse of power within the Department of Justice,” she added.

In her advocacy, Savannah has also voiced complaints about the treatment her father has experienced while in prison.

Besides Savannah Chrisley, notable figures such as Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (Arkansas), and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) are also expected to deliver speeches Tuesday evening.
