 Time-reversal parity of a fermion electric dipole operator

For real $a$, the Hermitian effective interaction $ia\bar{\psi }{\sigma }^{\mu \nu }{\gamma }^5\psi F_{\mu \nu }$ is odd under time-reversal symmetry. The spinor tensor and gauge field strength both acquire $-t_{\mu }{t}_{\nu }$, while the chirality matrix is even. Their signs cancel, leaving the minus sign from the explicit $i$ under antiunitarity. By the CPT theorem this is also CP violation. It is not a renormalizable tree-level Standard Model term, but a radiatively generated low-energy dipole is allowed because of the CP-violating phase in the CKM matrix.
