Capitol attack inquiry narrows on Trump as panel subpoenas top aide

Move to pursue Peter Navarro suggests the select committee is edging ever closer to examining potential culpability for Trump

The House select committee investigating the Capitol attack on Wednesday subpoenaed Donald Trump's former White House senior adviser Peter Navarro, escalating its inquiry into the former president's efforts to return himself to office and the January 6 insurrection.

The move to pursue Navarro, who helped finalize the scheme to stop the certification of Joe Biden's election win with political operatives at the Willard hotel in Washington DC, suggests the panel is edging ever closer to examining potential culpability for Trump.
