eu.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2024/03/19/peter-navarro-trump-aide-jailed/73030689007/
Quick Glance: Peter Navarro Reports to Prison for Defiance of Congress
- Former White House adviser Peter Navarro reported to prison on Tuesday for a contempt of Congress conviction, making him the first senior Trump administration official to be imprisoned for a crime related to the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack.
- Navarro was sentenced to four months in prison for refusing to comply with a subpoena for documents and testimony from the House committee investigating the riot by supporters of then-President Donald Trump.
- Prior to his incarceration at the federal prison in Miami, Navarro defiantly addressed reporters, labeling his conviction as the “partisan weaponization of the judicial system.
- After casting his vote in Florida on Tuesday, Trump was questioned about Navarro.

apnews.com/article/trump-white-house-official-jan-6-contempt-8c28224fcde49e784708a1b9444076d7
Quick Glance: Court denies Peter Navarro’s request for prison stay
- A federal appeals court ruled on Thursday that former Trump adviser Peter Navarro cannot remain out of prison during his appeal against his conviction for refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena related to the Capitol attack on January 6, 2021.
- The District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals essentially upheld the judge's decision that Navarro's appeal does not pose a 'significant legal question' justifying his release.
- Following his conviction last year on two contempt of Congress charges, 74-year-old Navarro was sentenced to four months in prison and is set to report to a Miami prison on Tuesday. This would mark him as the first prominent Trump adviser to serve jail time for endeavors to challenge the 2020 election.
- Navarro stated to reporters after his conviction that he anticipates his case to reach the Supreme Court to address concerns about executive privilege for high-ranking White House officials.
