Peter Navarro, the former White House aide to Donald Trump who was convicted last year on a pair of contempt of Congress charges for refusing to comply with a Jan. 6 committee subpoena, was sentenced to four months in a federal prison on Thursday.
Navarro, 74, will also have to pay a $9,500 fine, ruled U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta.
“They had a job to do and you made it harder,” said Mehta on Thursday, slamming Navarro’s refusal to testify in front of Congress. “It’s really that simple.”
