An IRS contractor pled guilty Thursday to leaking the private tax information of former President Donald Trump and thousands of other wealthy Americans to the news media.

Charles Littlejohn, 38, of Washington, D.C., faces a maximum of five years in prison, the Department of Justice said. Sentencing is slated for late January.

    I think the paperwork to start that process is here - https://www.justice.gov/pardon/apply-pardon

    Incidentally, they might try to bullshit their way out of a direct answer by saying some misinformation about how “there is a five-year waiting period before a person can apply for pardon,” but just remind them that’s not how it worked for Michael Flynn and a whole bunch of other people under the last administration. Whether or not this gets done comes down solely to the President’s willingness to order it.
