Former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who gained notoriety for his attempt to sell Barack Obama's Senate seat after Obama's 2008 presidential win, is expected to receive a pardon from President Donald Trump. Blagojevich, a former contestant on 'Celebrity Apprentice,' served eight years in prison before Trump commuted his 14-year sentence in 2020.

Blagojevich was convicted in 2011 on 18 counts and initially sentenced to 14 years. However, Trump intervened and shortened his prison term. Notably, Blagojevich appeared on 'Celebrity Apprentice' in 2010, receiving praise from Trump before his corruption trial began.
