certification of joe biden s win, and to pressure republican legislators in swing states to undo biden s victory. and then, he repeatedly went on, calling harry melber s show, to describe and even brag about the plan, he called, the green bay sweep. naturally, the general six investigation in congress was very interested in what you have to say, so they subpoenaed navarro for testimony. when he defied the subpoena, the house voted to refer him to the justice department for prosecution, for contempt of congress. and that was where things stood last night when peter navarro went back on mary s show a game. so, you re risking going potentially to jail, not to talk to them, but you are out here, talking in public. you do realize these investigators can hear you when you talk on tv. this committee, this kangaroo committee has clearly violated the separation of powers. they re not supposed to act as
