## Resource

CZ lays out the timeline from his November 2023 arrival in the US, guilty plea and four month prison sentence in 2024 to Donald Trump’s full and unconditional presidential pardon in October 2025, saying the pardon clears his felony record and restores his ability to be deemed “fit and proper” by regulators.
