"Ex-Trump Adviser Peter Navarro Appeals to Supreme Court to Avoid Prison"

Former Trump adviser Peter Navarro has appealed to the US supreme court to prevent him from going to prison as he appeals his contempt of Congress conviction related to his refusal to cooperate with a congressional investigation into the January 6 attack on the US Capitol. Navarro argues that he couldn't cooperate due to Trump's invocation of executive privilege, but a federal judge ruled against this argument. This comes as the supreme court prepares to hear arguments on whether Trump himself has presidential immunity from charges related to the 2020 election. Navarro is the second Trump aide convicted of congressional contempt charges, following Steve Bannon.
