TL;DR Summary

Peter Navarro, a former trade adviser to Donald Trump, has been sentenced to four months in prison for defying a subpoena from the Jan. 6 select committee. U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta handed down the sentence, criticizing Navarro's refusal to testify or provide documents as an affront to the government's efforts to understand the attack on democracy. Navarro's sentence follows nearly two years of legal proceedings and makes him the second Trump ally convicted of contempt of Congress charges related to the Jan. 6 committee.
