"DOJ Seeks 6-Month Prison Term for Peter Navarro"

The Department of Justice is seeking a six-month jail sentence and a $200,000 fine for former Trump aide Peter Navarro for defying a subpoena from the House Jan. 6 select committee. Prosecutors argue that Navarro prioritized allegiance to Trump over the rule of law and would likely continue to serve the political interests of his allies and patrons. Navarro's attorneys argue that his actions were based on a duty-bound belief to assert executive privilege on behalf of Trump. Navarro would be the second former Trump aide sentenced for defying the select committee, following Steve Bannon.
