Overview

• Peter Navarro, former Trump White House aide, has been ordered to begin serving a four-month prison term for contempt of Congress.
• Navarro's request to remain out of prison while appealing his conviction was denied by U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta.
• The conviction stems from Navarro's refusal to comply with a subpoena from the House Jan. 6 Committee investigating the Capitol attack.
• Navarro criticized the decision, comparing it to the non-prosecution of Biden in a separate case, and raised over $1 million for legal expenses.
• This marks a significant development in the legal repercussions following the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.
