TL;DR Summary

Former Trump White House trade adviser Peter Navarro faces potential contempt of court for failing to return presidential records to the National Archives, despite court orders. U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly has given Navarro one month to turn over the withheld emails, which include some personal journal entries, and has found that a significant percentage of the records are related to the discharge of presidential duties. This legal trouble adds to Navarro's existing challenges, including a prison term for ignoring a subpoena from the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack.
