Navarro potentially faces a year in prison for each contempt count, in addition to fines reaching up to $100,000 when he is sentenced on January 12. However, he remains resolute, declaring that he plans to appeal the conviction on multiple grounds, including the application of executive privilege and its related qualified testimonial immunity to all senior advisers of a former president.
