Rod Blagojevich to Newsmax: ‘So Grateful’ to Trump for Pardon

Former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich expressed thanks and appreciation toward President Donald Trump for issuing a full and unconditional pardon to clear his name, telling Newsmax on Tuesday it’s an “everlasting gratitude.”

First Trump commuted Blagojevich’s 14-year prison sentence in his first term in office and then on Monday granted the former Democrat governor the pardon.

“I feel great, you know, Greg. I went to bed on Super Bowl Sunday, I was a felon, convicted felon. Woke up this morning, and I’m not anymore,” Blagojevich told “Greg Kelly Reports.”
