Peter Navarro, the former Director of United States Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy took the podium at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee on Wednesday to attack the Department of Justice, the judiciary and the January 6 Committee in a sharp rebuke of calls of unity during the first high profile political event since the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
Navarro served under former President Trump. In March, he became the first Trump aide to be imprisoned for efforts related to trying to steal the 2020 election. He was sentenced to four months in prison for Contempt of Congress for refusing to testify to the January 6 committee.
The RNC crowd chanted, "welcome home" and "fight" before Navarro began his speech. The speech was Navarro's first public appearance since leaving a federal prison Wednesday morning.
The Republican National Convention is in Milwaukee through Thursday where Trump on Thursday will formally accept the party’s nomination for the 2024 Election.
