STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOSWASHINGTON - Former President Donald Trump adviser Peter Navarro will head to trial on Tuesday on two misdemeanor counts of contempt of Congress, after refusing to testify or provide documents to the U.S. congressional investigation of the attack on the Capitol.
The Democratic-led House of Representatives committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack wanted to ask him about a"Green Bay Sweep" plan to delay Congress from certifying President Joe Biden's election victory that Navarro later detailed in a book he wrote after leaving the White House. Navarro has maintained that his refusal to testify or provide documents demanded by a congressional subpoena was sparked by Trump's invocation of executive privilege, a legal doctrine that shields certain White House communications from disclosure.
"I still don’t know what the president said," Mehta said at the Aug. 28 hearing, adding that the evidence in support of Navarro's claims was"pretty weak sauce."
