WASHINGTON — Peter Navarro, the White House trade adviser under former President Donald Trump, has been subpoenaed by the House committee investigating last year’s insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.
Navarro has acknowledged publicly that he and former Trump adviser Steve Bannon worked on a plan to coordinate with lawmakers on a process to stop the certification of Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 presidential election.
Navarro, who was director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy and assistant to the president, is the latest member of the Trump administration to be subpoenaed.
