A federal appeals court in Washington, DC, on Tuesday rejected President Donald Trump adviser Peter Navarro's attempt to overturn his contempt of Congress felony conviction.
The unanimous opinion of three judges on the DC US Circuit Court of Appeals marks the latest failure of Trump advisers to unwind legal fallout over their actions around the January 6, 2021, US Capitol riot.
The decision also leans heavily into Navarro's failures to prove in court that Trump wanted to shield him from congressional testimony.
Navarro was found guilty in 2023 of defying congressional subpoenas related his public claims of plotting to block Congress from certifying Trump's loss in the 2020 presidential election. The House Select Committee investigating the Capitol riot sought both records Navarro had and his testimony, but he refused.
