Fox News covered Peter Navarro's final words before turning himself over to prison authorities and it was wondrous seeing this odious Trump official getting no love from Fox News.

Navarro, the fast-talking carnival barker who helped devise a plan to overthrow the 2020 election for diminished Don, received a four-month jail sentence for defying a subpoena from the Jan. 6 select committee.

Navarro was blabbing to the press as he was about to surrender to authorities when Fox News' Sandra Smith cut in.

"And he will be reporting to that prison at 2 PM EST in Miami to serve his four-month prison sentence," Smith said. "He began by saying, It's not about me, it's about a crippling blow to the justice system."

"To fact check there, it is no longer an alleged crime that he'll be serving this four-month sentence for," she corrected. "He has obviously been convicted and there was no evidence that did, that would have excluded him, per executive privilege, from testifying."

These are my favorite words.

"Peter Navarro on his way to prison," Smith said concluding the segment.

This time Navarro wasn't on Steve Bannon's treason network and couldn't word salad his way out of this predicament.
