TFG Fumes After Lawmakers Subpoena Peter Navarro Over Admin's COVID Response
Former President Donald Trump attacked congressional Democrats Saturday after a subcommittee investigation into his administration's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic issued a subpoena for his former aide Peter Navarro.
Lawmakers issued the subpoena Thursday after Navarro, who served as the Trump administration's trade advisor, allegedly didn't respond to document requests from the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis.
Representative James Clyburn, a South Carolina Democrat who chairs the subcommittee, wrote in a memo that Navarro has not complied and failed to communicate with staff on the subcommittee. He wrote that staff members have tried to communicate with Navarro more than a dozen times via phone calls, voicemail messages, emails and text messages.
"Mr. Navarro has demonstrated his unwillingness to voluntarily cooperate with the Select Subcommittee's investigation," Clyburn wrote. "Given his central role in the pandemic response, the importance of the Select Subcommittee's investigation, and his continued refusal to cooperate voluntarily, this subpoena is necessary."
