Peter Navarro, ex-Trump trade adviser, released from prison

Washington — Peter Navarro, who served as a top trade adviser to former President Donald Trump, was released from federal prison on Wednesday after serving a four-month sentence for defying a congressional subpoena, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

Navarro, 75, reported in March to serve his sentence at the federal correctional institute in Miami and was assigned to an 80-person dormitory for older inmates. He is listed among the speakers at this week's Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, though it's unclear whether he will address attendees Wednesday or Thursday, the final day of the event.

Navarro's staff posted on social media that he would be released, writing "the best it yet to come."
