Peter Navarro, Steve Bannon’s self-professed co-orchestrator of the bogus voter fraud strategy known as the “Green Bay Sweep,” has asked a federal judge to release him from prison and let him serve out the remainder of his contempt of Congress sentence on supervised release for 30 days.
Navarro, who also served as a trade adviser to former President Donald Trump, was sentenced to four months in prison for two misdemeanor counts for his refusal to comply with a subpoena from the House Select Committee to Investigate the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol. Navarro was convicted by a jury in Washington, D.C., in September.
He has made multiple attempts to have his sentence remanded or headed off altogether, including making requests to the Supreme Court but those have summarily failed.
According to an emergency motion for resentencing filed late Thursday, Navarro has asked the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia to step in and modify his sentence to include a term of just 30 days supervised release no later than June 19. “Dr. Navarro will then immediately be eligible to begin serving his term of supervised release and will conclude service of his sentence, both imprisonment and supervised released at approximately the same time,” his attorney Stanley Woodward wrote.
