Ex-Trump adviser Peter Navarro ordered to report to jail on March 19
Ex-Trump White House adviser Peter Navarro has been ordered to report to jail on March 19 to begin his four-month sentence for defying a Jan. 6 committee subpoena.
Former Trump White House adviser Peter Navarro has been ordered to report to jail in Miami on March 19 to begin his four-month sentence after he defied a subpoena from the House Select Committee that investigated the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Navarro was convinced in September of two counts of contempt of Congress for refusing to provide testimony and documents to the committee.
According to court papers filed late Sunday night by Navarro's attorneys, he must report to prison in Miami by March 19 at 2 p.m. ET.
Won’t he just ignore that too
He could, but then he'll have a warrant and he'll never work in politics again and it'll just be way worse for him.
America isn't Sweden, you can't decide not to go to jail
In October 2020, two weeks before the presidential elections, Navarro's office in the White House had begun preparing allegations of election fraud.[116] . . . In December 2020, Navarro published a report alleging widespread election fraud.[118] The report repeated discredited conspiracy theories claiming election fraud, including allegations that had been dismissed by the courts and Trump's own election security task force. . . . On January 2, 2021, Navarro, along with Rudy Giuliani and Mark Meadows, participated in a call with Georgia election officials in which Trump urged them to overturn the results of the election.[121][122][123]
Oh yeah. What a shithead.
In February 2020 virologist Steven Hatfill became Navarro's advisor with regard to the coronavirus pandemic.[105] Hatfill was a strong promoter of the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for covid, even though the drug's effectiveness was unproven.[106][107] By April, Navarro, and the president himself, were touting the drug as a lifesaver. . . . In July 2020, Navarro touted a widely criticized study as showing that hydroxychloroquine was an effective coronavirus treatment; . . . In May 2020, Navarro criticized stay-at-home orders, arguing that the COVID-19 lockdowns will kill "many more" people than the coronavirus.[23][110] In July 2020, USA Today published an editorial by Navarro under the headline "Anthony Fauci has been wrong about everything I have interacted with him on," after which White House officials disavowed Navarro's attacks.
Christ what a fuckup.
Anyone planning a 'Navarro goes to Jail' Party?
Tee hee.
Why is he the only one who is not being sent to jail?
Up on the pardon waiting bench
