Former Trump aide Navarro sentenced to four months for contempt of Congress

Former US President Trump’s trade adviser Peter Navarro has been sentenced to four months in prison for contempt of Congress after refusing to cooperate with an investigation into the January 6 attack on the Capitol.

Navarro was found guilty of defying a subpoena for documents and a deposition from the House January 6 committee.

He pledged to appeal Thursday’s verdict and said he could not cooperate with the committee because Trump had invoked executive privilege.
