Case Intel
- Former Trump official Peter Navarro was sentenced to four months in federal prison for defying a congressional subpoena—proof that noncompliance, even by high-ranking individuals, carries real consequences.
- Bill and Hillary Clinton, along with other officials, have been subpoenaed for depositions in the Congressional Jeffrey Epstein probe and are widely expected to contest their appearances.
- Legal precedent suggests defenses like executive privilege, especially for former presidents, may not reliably shield deponents from consequences.
