Former White House adviser Peter Navarro reported to prison Tuesday for a contempt of Congress conviction, becoming the first senior Trump administration official to be locked up for a crime related to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack.
Navarro was sentenced to four months in prison for defying a subpoena for documents and a deposition from the House committee that investigated the riot by supporters of then-President Donald Trump.
Navarro was defiant in remarks to reporters before he headed to the federal prison in Miami, calling his conviction the “partisan weaponization of the judicial system.”
Weird how you can go to prison faster for not showing up in court than attempting to undermine a country. Let’s hope it’s his first sentence, then.
It’s not like he tried to push green energy or UBI, he’s not changing the status quo by undermining an election, just stepping on the peon voters.
