Summary

A federal grand jury recently indicted former Trump White House trade advisor Peter Navarro on two counts of contempt of Congress for failing to comply with a subpoena issued by the January 6th Committee.

In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss Navarro’s arrest and indictment. They also break down the acquittal of Michael Sussmann, a lawyer for the 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign, of lying to the FBI, and the missteps taken by special counsel John Durham in prosecuting this case.
