"Judge Denies Peter Navarro's Request for New Contempt Trial in Congress Case"

A federal judge rejected Trump White House official Peter Navarro's bid for a new trial after being convicted of contempt of Congress for refusing to cooperate with the investigation into the U.S. Capitol attack. Navarro's lawyers alleged that jurors may have been influenced by political protesters during the trial, but the judge ruled that there was no evidence of prejudice or improper influence. Navarro, who is scheduled to be sentenced later this month, has vowed to appeal the verdict.
