#FederalJudge #AmitMehta cites lack of "#contrition" in 4 month #prison sentence for #Trump advisor #PeterNavarro #Contempt of #Congress case over #Jan6th #Insurrection riot hearings. Navarro who claimed #ExecutivePrivilege as excuse to ignore #Congressional #subpoena received same #sentence as #SteveBannon whose #conviction is still out on appeal for similar matter.
“I have a great deal of respect for your client and all he’s accomplished. I really do,” #Mehta told #Navarro's #LegalTeam Thursday. “That’s what makes it all the more disappointing the way he behaved.”
