TL;DR Summary

Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. rejected Peter Navarro's last-ditch bid to avoid prison and ruled that the former Trump adviser must begin serving a four-month sentence for contempt of Congress related to his refusal to comply with a subpoena regarding the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack. Navarro, who is the first senior aide to Trump to serve time in connection with the election plot, must report to a federal prison in Miami on Tuesday. This decision comes after Judge Amit P. Mehta rejected Navarro's request to remain free while on appeal, stating that there were no substantial legal questions for the courts to consider.
