Michael Grimm, a former Congressman from New York, has been pardoned by President Trump after serving time for tax fraud linked to his Manhattan restaurant. Grimm had faced significant legal issues during his political career, including perjury charges and hiring undocumented immigrants. Despite these troubles, he won reelection just a month before pleading guilty to tax fraud. Following his release from prison, he attempted a political comeback but lost in a primary endorsed by Trump. Notably, Grimm gained attention in 2014 for threatening a reporter, which he later apologized for.
