Peter Navarro Abruptly Cancels MSNBC Interview on Contempt Charges
After the House Jan. 6 committee voted Monday to hold former Trump administration trade official Peter Navarro in contempt of Congress, Navarro booked an appearance on MSNBC’s The Beat for Tuesday night.
Shortly before the broadcast, however, things changed. “Late today, [Navarro] then indicated he could not do an interview tonight,” a disappointed Ari Melber told viewers.
Navarro’s decision might have something to do with how the committee cited his prior appearance on the program – during which he explained his efforts to overturn the 2020 election – to rebut Navarro’s claims of executive privilege.
