TL;DR Summary

Former Trump aide Peter Navarro is seeking an emergency appeal from the Supreme Court to avoid reporting to prison next week for contempt of Congress. His previous attempts to overturn his conviction were rejected by a federal appeals court, which stated that he failed to answer substantial legal questions. Navarro, who claims he was given executive privilege by Trump to defy the subpoena, argues that his conviction can still be overturned. If released pending appeal, he asserts that he is neither a flight risk nor a danger to public safety.
