Claims and evidence

  1. factcharged

    A federal grand jury indicted Navarro on two counts of contempt of Congress after he did not produce documents by February 23 or appear on March 2 in response to the January 6 committee's subpoena. Navarro claimed executive privilege; courts later found he did not prove Trump had invoked it. At indictment, the counts were allegations and Navarro remained presumed innocent.
