Former Trump White House official Peter Navarro has been released from prison in Florida after completing his sentence for a contempt of Congress conviction and is expected to speak hours later at the Republican National Convention. The federal Bureau of Prisons says Navarro was released Wednesday after serving four months for refusing to cooperate with a congressional investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol by a mob of Republican then-President Donald Trump's supporters. Navarro will head straight to Milwaukee to speak at the third night of the Republican National Convention. Navarro calls his conviction the “partisan weaponization of the judicial system.”
