"Trump Adviser Peter Navarro Sentenced to 4 Months for Contempt of Congress"

Former Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro was sentenced to four months in prison for contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena in the investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol attack. The judge scolded Navarro for hindering the House committee's work and rejected his claims of being a victim or political prosecution. Navarro plans to appeal and asked for donations to cover legal costs. He argued that he believed he did not have to cooperate with Congress due to executive privilege, but the judge stated that it was not a legal defense. Navarro is the second prominent Trump adviser to be convicted of contempt of Congress.
