Peter Navarro
The trial against the former assistant to the president is now likely to take place later this month.
The right has used this phrase for others, but doesn't think it should apply to them.
He’s boasted about plotting to keep Donald Trump in power. Now, Peter Navarro is facing fresh scrutiny, for allegedly hiding emails from his time in the White House.
The Justice Department is asking a federal judge for an order “authorizing the recovery of any Presidential records in the possession, custody, and/or control of Mr. Navarro.”
WHAT'S HAPPENING
Peter Navarro used a Newsmax interview to accuse Mike Pence of treason for not overturning the 2020 presidential election.
The former trade adviser also accused Trump's vice president of "traitorous activity."
One person compared the former Trump aide's antics in court to "a slow-rolling comedy sketch."
“I was a distinguished public servant for four years!” Navarro said during a court appearance earlier this month.
The former Trump official griped that he was strip-searched after he was arrested for defying a subpoena.
A stunned Navarro, who was handcuffed and locked in a cell, told a judge later that he has been a "distinguished public servant."
