"DOJ Seeks 6-Month Prison Sentence for Trump Adviser Peter Navarro"
TL;DR Summary
Federal prosecutors are seeking a six-month jail sentence for former Trump adviser Peter Navarro for contempt of Congress in relation to the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, accusing him of prioritizing loyalty to Trump over the rule of law. Navarro, found guilty in September, refused to cooperate with a House committee's subpoena. His attorneys argue that he genuinely believed Trump had invoked executive privilege. Navarro's sentencing is set for next Thursday, and he plans to appeal his conviction.
