Kim Kardashian is thanking everyone who helped free inmate Chris Young.
Well, everyone with the exception of Donald Trump.
Kardashian has been helping free Young who was serving a life sentence for non-violent drug offences. In one of Trump’s final acts as president, he granted Young clemency.

The reality star turned criminal justice reform lobbyist brought the case to Trump in 2018 during a visit to the White House.
On Sunday, Kardashian reposted a video of Young arriving to the airport (same as the one below) and added a long letter of thanks.
