In a continuing legal battle between original president Donald Trump and those connected to him, Donald Trump Jr. made a visit to former Trump business adviser Peter Navarro, who is currently serving time for refusing to comply with a congressional lawsuit.
For refusing to comply with a summons from the now-defunct House January 6 find committee, Navarro was found guilty of contempt of Congress on two counts. The Supreme Court declined to grant him an urgent request for assistance, despite the Supreme Court’s decision to prevent him from serving time in prison.

The chief justice pointed out that a board from the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals found that Navarro had failed to raise some grievances regarding the justice of his faith when he first pleaded not guilty on appeal.
Navarro is serving a four- quarter word. Donald Trump Jr. visited him in prison, telling ABC News,” It’s important to present help”.

” Trump Jr. told ABC News Navarro is in’ great souls’ and believes he’s been unjustly convicted”, the channel reported.
In an interview with Breitbart News Saturday in March, Navarro mentioned how he was imprisoned and held in contempt by a Democrat Congress while former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA ) was in charge of the lake as well as his new book, The New MAGA Deal.
A Democratic Department of Justice indicted me and charged me. I was stripped of every single defense before I even got to a jury trial by the judge in the case, and at the jury trial, I did n’t notice — it’s an astonishing statistic, Matt — it’s like 95 percent of the voters who voted in the 2020 election in the District of Columbia voted for Biden — 95 percent”, he explained, concluding that he is “going into prison, basically, at the hand of Democrats”.
Navarro made it clear that the event is bigger than him, yet.
The separation of powers under the Constitution and the purity of what is known as executive luxury, a practice that dates back to George Washington, are the topics of discussion. Ironic about this whole thing is that the Department of Justice has consistently stated that you ca n’t subpoena the president’s senior White House advisers, as has been the case for more than 50 years. You ca n’t just do it. You ca n’t do it. ]It ] violates the separation of powers. But, Navarro said at the time, “executive privilege will have slowly passed away under the Trump regime” if I go to jail and drop this on appeal. ” And that’s not good because the Democrats should n’t want that either”.
Navarro continued, adding that he was “fighting on process in support of the Constitution.”
” Do n’t cry for me, Argentina, fight for Donald Trump right now”, he said, adding,” 2024— we’ve got to win”.
