The Jan. 6 committee is seeking criminal prosecution for two of Trump’s top White House aides, saying they illegally defied subpoenas
The Jan. 6 select committee is seeking criminal prosecution for two of Donald Trump’s top White House aides, saying they illegally defied subpoenas.
Scavino is one of Trump’s longest-serving and closest aides. He handled social media for the former president and is regarded as a trusted ally. He was in the White House with Trump during the Jan. 6 attack, the committee has said, and was also one of the first people the panel subpoenaed, back on Sept. 23.to block the committee’s subpoena of his phone records from Verizon., who responded with a lengthy statement indicating he would not comply with the summons.
“If President Trump waives the privilege, I would be happy to testify,” Navarro said in a text message. “It is premature for the committee to pursue criminal charges against an individual of the highest rank within the White House for whom executive privilege undeniably applies.”
