TL;DR

The US Supreme Court has denied former Trump White House adviser Peter Navarro's request to delay his prison sentence for contempt of Congress as he appeals his conviction. Navarro is set to serve a four-month federal prison term for defying a subpoena related to the Jan. 6, 2021 attacks. He argued that he couldn't cooperate due to Trump's executive privilege, but lower courts found he couldn't prove this. Navarro's attorney declined to comment, and the high court's decision comes as it prepares to hear arguments on whether Trump himself has presidential immunity from charges related to the 2020 election interference.
