MILWAUKEE - Peter Navarro, an helper in white house of Donald trump, received thunderous cheers at the republican national convention on Monday. He spoke hours after having left a federal prison in Miami. 

Navarro said, i did walk out of federal prison. if they can come for me, if they can come for Donald trump, be careful. they will come for you.

Navarro went in prison in march after he was convicted of contempt of congress. he was involved in trump's effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election and defied a subpoena from the house committee tasked with investigating the Jan 6, 2021, attack on the capital and the run-up to it. 

Navarro said in his speech, "here's how it went, here how i get in prison. the legislative branch came for me first. your favorite democrat, Nancy Pelosi, created your favorite committee on Jan 6th. in which demanded that i violate executive privilege. what did i do? i refused."

Navarro's speech different from almost all of the other convention speeches in mentioning Jan 6 and themes of political persecution.
