Despite claiming executive privilege shielded him — a claim he himself admitted wouldn’t excuse his noncompliance — the court found no evidence Trump ever invoked it for him. Navarro, a former Trump trade adviser now back in a similar role, had already served a four-month prison sentence and continued pushing his appeal even after release, including at the GOP convention. The unanimous ruling by a diverse panel of judges confirms the consequences of his defiance and underscores the legal accountability for obstructing the January 6th investigation.
