The legal action comes just weeks after #Navarro was indicted on #criminal charges after refusing to cooperate with a congressional investigation into the #Jan6, 2021, #insurrection. Navarro served a 4-month #prison sentence after being found #guilty of misdemeanor charges.
The #civil cases alleges that by using the unofficial email account, Navarro failed to turn over presidential records to NARA.

#AileenCannon’s assignment raised eyebrows bc she has scant trial experience & had previously shown unusual #favor to #Trump by intervening in a way that helped him in the #criminal investigation that led to his #indictment, only to be #reversed in a sharply #critical rebuke by a #conservative appeals #court panel.
The extraordinary…effort by Cannon’s colleagues to persuade her to step aside adds…to the increasing criticism of how she has handled the case.

Update:
“They met w/#Justice Dept personnel including #SpecialCounsel #JackSmith, but NOT #AttorneyGeneral #MerrickGarland or Deputy Attorney General #LisaMonaco, said people familiar w/the matter, who like others interviewed for this article spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a closed door proceeding.”

…And in #Trump’s case, a meeting w/the #AttorneyGeneral would be even more unusual & problematic because the investigation is being led by #JackSmith, whose #SpecialCounsel appointment gives him greater autonomy than other prosecutors in the #Justice Dept. Under dept regs, the AG may overrule the special counsel ONLY IF the special counsel has failed to follow DOJ policies & practices.

It is not unusual for lawyers for high-profile defendants to seek an audience w/snr #DOJ ofcls toward the end of a federal #criminal investigation. But it would be uncommon for such meetings to take place w/the #AttorneyGeneral, the nation’s top #law enforcement ofcl.

Among the attys at the meeting were #JohnRowley & #JamesTrusty….
In late May, Rowley & Trusty sent a letter to #AttorneyGeneral #MerrickGarland asking for a meeting to discuss what they call the unfair treatment of their client by #SpecialCounsel #JackSmith, who is leading the probe.#Trump #ClassifiedDocuments #SpecialTreatment #Privilege #WhitePrivilege #WealthPrivilege #PowerAndPrivilege #Equity #EqualTreatmentUnderTheLaw #Impartiality #WithoutFearOrFavor #Obstruction #Espionage

Here’s hoping #AttorneyGeneral #MerrickGarland didn’t actually grant a meeting to these yahoos…
Attts for #Trump came to the #DOJ Mon morning to make their case that the government should not charge the fmr president in connection w/his possession of #ClassifiedDocuments after leaving office….
