of the committee subpoenaed peter navarro wednesday. >> the committee wants more details. >> the house committee there subpoenaing navarro late yesterday, demanding his testimony on many of those topics around the election and post-election period. as mentioned, peter navarro is here live tonight to answer the questions. welcome to "the beat," sir. >> ari, great to be with you. >> great to have you. we have learned a lot over the last few weeks even about these different efforts to keep president trump in power. one of the sets of reports has been about other alternate or fraudulent electors. when did you become aware of that plan? >> that's not part of my remit or on my radar, ari. i was focused simply on the green bay sweep plan, which we talked about in an earlier program, which was simply straight between the lines in the letter of the law, using the electoral count act of 1887 as a blueprint to have the quarterback, mike pence, in the green bay sweep remand votes back to the six battleground states for another look. my presumption there in assisting with that based on the careful

got one. >> here they are poised to probably subpoena jordan perry navarro. >> congratulations peter navarro, i think you just earned yourself a subpoena. >> will his be the next subpoena to drop? >> has the house probe requested your cooperation? >> no. >> no. and that no came about two weeks ago. navarro's admissions about trying to overthrow the election came about four weeks ago right here on t beat. the news tonight is the january 6 committee just subpoenaed navarro, pressing him to go under oath about his confessed plot. this committee's new letter asked navarro to come in, provide evidence and testimony about his work with steve bannon, these plots to challenge the election, what they call this green bay sweep or a coup, which he outlined, among other things. that sweep or coup is the center piece of the failed navarro/bannon plot. they wanted to try to use to compel then vice president pence to claim pence could stop the finalizing of trump's loss, which was lawful and complete. under questioning, navarro cast that effort to end democracy, as a kind of optional end run that he could

place peter navarro in the trump orbit. how important was he? >> sure. let me just really quickly say i appreciate, jamie, the credit on the paper-ripping story but that was my colleague annie and it was one of the best stories of the presidency and i was very jealous of it when she was a competitor and broke it. peter navarro was sort of a jack of all trades around the forler president, john. you know, he was somebody who, yes, he was trade adviser but he clearly liked running all kinds of other errands for trump. he inserted himself in trying to figure out who the author "anonymous" was, and devoted enormous amount of energy to it. he viewed himself and portrayed himself as one of the, you know, defenders of the president's political movement, and so he was somebody who went out -- it's not clear to me whether trump actually asked him to do this or whether he volunteered to do but he went out and he did all kinds of, you know, quote/unquote, work around the election after november 3rd and before january 6th. and he issued this report -- and i think he

when we last interviewed peter navarro on "the beat" we discussed these issues some of which you haveerred to with your guests that mr. navarro is open in admitting confessing if you will in trying to overthrow the election, what they called the sweep, to coordinate that with members of congress. it relates and overlaps with the fraudulent electors plot which also may involve crimes of forgery. when i spoke to him he said at that time he had not heard from the committee. we asked because we wondered given the nature of his admissions in the book and interviews, etcetera, whether they would want to talk to him. now we get that development. you widen out on what you see is that the committee began looking most clearly and specifically at the events of that day, tactical storming of the capitol, and what, if anything, the administration knew or intended about that storming has now broadened into something that has multiple parts. it's not for us yet, i don't think we know yet exactly where the levels of coordination all overlapped or not. but it certainly is striking that this fraudulent

trump treated visor, peter navarro. mr.ion. he has actually written an entire book about it. he has given numerous interviews, including more than a one with my colleague ari melber right here on this network. ari's face says it all in this interview. in all of these forums, he has been downright proud of the plan that he says he was pushing to overturn the election results. but tonight, mr.

>> i think peter's right to say that navarro was hardly an expert when it came to elections. the notion that he could have crafted, whatever you could call it, a green bay sweep, or a coup, really defies expectations. saying it out loud, has done something very important here, it has given the january six committee very precise guidance about what they are looking for. because between the book, and public statements made by navarro, they know that he for instance maintained that the former president had approved of the green bay sweep plan. and that becomes very important and the committees calculation. it gives them reason to inquire about those communications, and why did in the viral believe that the president approved of it. i suspect, chris, that we get pretty quickly with navarro into this kind of scenario where he is asserting the fifth amendment to try to avoid testifying, but of course as you and i have discussed many times before, there is a crime fraud exception to the ability to maintain those sorts of situations. and if he finds himself in a situation where he is

place peter navarro in the trump orbit, how important was he? >> sure, let me quickly say i appreciate your terrific story for the presidency. i was jealous she was a competitor and broke it. pe to navarro was sort of a jack of all trades around the former president. yes, he was a trade adviser. he clearly liked running other errands for trump and inserted himself on who the author anonymous was and devoted a lot of energy in on it. he weighed in on other issues, he viewed himself and portrayed himself as one of the defenders of the president's political movement. he was somebody that went oust. it's not clear whether trump asked him or he went out and did all kind of critting a work and the election after november 3rd and before january 6th. he issued this report and i think he held a press conference, where he talked about his findings. now he talked about this all in a book. it's not surprising to me he has not cooperated with the january 6th committee. the former president has drawn a pretty clear line, he doesn't want people dock it. navarro

peter navarro is not done talking. just this week he lit into mike pence for saying his former boss was wrong and what he asked him to do was unamerican, a stunning statement it turns out. pence didn't originally intend to make. sources telling cnn recent criticism from the former president pushed pence over the edge. >> mike, i don't want to hear this crap you are dead politically. don't be going out and giving speeches and talking smack about trump. >> the little t-shirt on espn. like espn? can you please roll that again? can i see it? >> mike, i don't want to hear this crap. you are dead politically. don't be going out and giving speeches and talking smack about trump. >> on the 50 yard line. right into the end zone. okay. this is serious stuff but that is weird whatever it is that is. peter navarro, come on down and join the subpoena club. along with steve bannon, the guy just on the tv there, and dozens of others. then there is of course rudy guiliani who always seems to be behind the wheel of the clown car of cra

. >> tim, i want to talk about trump's former economics guy, peter navarro. he was on msnbc last night with ari talking about not trump but mike pence. watch this. >> mike is not a lawyer. mike was just a tool and a puppet of these guys. he doesn't know a legal site from adam. i'm telling you, he betrayed the president simply by the act of not coming to the president and white house lead counsel. >> my goodness. as much as we can laugh at peter navarro and which he had a chair and a blazer, how concerning is it that this is the talk amongst republicans, portraying trump as the ultimate victim, that's the crime, not violating the constitution, the rule of law, or the american people. >> steph, i'm excited to talk about late night. we can talk about his outfits on the new show next week. here's the reason to take it seriously. there is an entire universe of right-wing media that is very well trafficked and followed that is outside of, you know, even what people are watching on fox. i had an article of watching am podcast, one of the top ten, peter navarro goes

peter navarro is not done talking. just this week, he wrote to mike pence saying what his former boss did was wrong, and what he asked him to do was un-american. stunning statement there, turns out. source telling cnn recent criticism from the former president pushed pence over the edge. >> mike, i don't want to hear this crap. you are dead politically. don don't be going out and giving speeches and talking smack about trump. >> little t-shirt and the thing is on espn. like, what is that? can you please roll that, again? can i see it? just, what is that? >> mike, i don't want to hear this crap. you are dead politically. don't be going out and giving speeches and saying -- talking smack about trump. >> on the 50-yard line. and then, right into the end zone. okay. this is serious stuff. but that is weird, whatever it is, that is. peter navarro came on down -- come on down, i should say, and join the subpoena club. along with steve bannon, the guy he was just on the tv there with, and dozens of others. and then there is,

the latest, the subpoena as we just mentioned to peter navarro. navarro has already said he will not comply and he is citing the former president's use of executive privilege. of course it is not necessarily accurate here. so sarra, how do you see this playing out, both with navarro and the next steps the committee may take, which keeps teasing at the idea of a more public-facing phase coming soon, perhaps even hearings live on tv, in prime time. >> yes, absolutely. what we're seeing in this investigation, that it is really narrowing in on president trump and his possible culpability in the entire riot, in the insurrection, we saw trump a few weeks ago, really honed in on what was going on in the oval office, former president trump's record, and so we're really seeing this committee, as we continue to get little pieces of what has been a pretty private investigation behind closed doors, we see a little bit more of the direction that they're taking, and as it ramps up, likely like you said, they're going to take things, to be a little bit more publi

peter navarro, first of all, he's a kook. and second of all, like the others very close to trump who were pushing this ridiculous nonsense about the election, they have no intention of helping this committee. they're going to do everything possible to drag out, delay, and if ultimately dragged in to testify will take the fifth or figure out some way not to cooperate. there is no interest in the trump team of helping this committee get to the truth, and peter navarro's not going to be any different. >> ana, i have to get your take on this divide in the gop over calling january 6th legitimate political discourse. why did that set off mcconnell and other senate republicans? is there more to this moment than meets the eye, do you think? >> because it's so egregious. right? i think the idea that these congresspeople and senators who were at the capitol when this occurred and ran for their lives and were protected by capitol police and law enforcement would stay silent and pretend that they're not going to opine and that they don't

let's start with those issued to former trump white house officials, peter navarro. trade adviser.in elections and stuff? he got a subpoena yesterday. he was behind one of the plans to disrupt the counting of the electoral votes in college, the green bay sweep after the green bay packers. he said donald trump knew about this. and over 100 members of congress were in on this. we will see if he testifies. before him, of course, mark meadows, chief of staff, was in the first batch of subpoena recipients. he got the subpoena, started to cooperate, stopped. and then the committee held him in contempt. doj has been sitting on the mark meadows count, nobody is counting, except me, 58 days. we are waiting to hear whether doj will prosecute mark meadows. they heard testimony, six to seven hours each, from two aides, ben williamson and kayly mcenany. and ivanka trump notably did not get a subpoena. she got a polite interview request. we will see if the committee ups it to a subpoena because she has shown no inclination to testify. >> and people in the former vice president's inner circle. >>

trump trade adviser peter navarro.e has not been shy about his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. he has actually written an entire book about it and given numerous interviews including more than one with my colleague ari melber right on this network. his face says it

peter navarro, latest target of a subpoena. this is what he said publicly about efforts post november 3rd and i want to get your reaction here. have a listen. >> the plan was simply this, we had over 100 congressmen and senators on capitol hill ready to implement the sweep. we were going to challenge the results of the election in six battle ground states. these were the places where we believed that if the votes were sent back to those battleground states and looked at again that there would be enough concern among the legislatures that most or all of those states would decertify the election. >> the fact is we know there was no evidence of widespread fraud here. did he just describe in public an illegal effort to overturn the election? does he face legal consequences for that? >> i think he does describe it in public. i think that's one of the things that happens, you see with former administration officials, in confidence, that they can't withhold themselves from getting on social media, podcasts, broadcasts, writing books,

peter navarro was one of trump's top trade advisers, he also took a part in plotting the coup. many talents. he's been pretty open about. it navarro called for the green bay sweep, not only did he write a book about it, in his book, he was literally just on msnbc boasting about the plot he cooked up with steve bannon. >> we had over 100 congressman and senators on capitol to commit the sweep, the sweep was that. we were going to challenge the results of the election in the six battleground states. they were michigan, pennsylvania, georgia, wisconsin, nevada, and basically, these are the places that we believe that if votes were sent back to those battleground states and looked at again, that there would be enough concern amongst the legislators that most or all of those states would decertify the election. that would throw the election to the house of representatives. >> do you realize that you are describing a coup? >> no. >> genocide with ari without. one navarro told another journalist that trump was on board. this -- ted cruz were among the hundred lawmakers ready to impleme

the january 6th select committee now wants to hear from a extremely loyal trump adviser peter navarro. he was trump's trade adviser, he had his ear, a person not shy about his plan to overturn the election. >> everything i am seeing, liz, tells me that this election was stolen. what i think we need to do tomorrow is appoint a special prosecutor to look at this issue. i think the georgia race needs to be postponed to february, because that place is a cesspool of activity. they ran the table on all of these dimensions of irregularities, so we need to do those things and i think we ought to think about seizing the voting machines. they stole this. we can prove it. >> of course, they couldn't, because it didn't happen. but that didn't stop him from doing everything he could to try to prove that something didn't happen happened. we released a report quote/unquote in december of 2020, it was a basically a rehash of the baseless claims repeatedly debunked by state officials or both parties and had been tossed out of multiple courtrooms because there was absolutely no evidence at all to back

and this is how we got here. >> white house trade and senior economic adviser peter navarro.er navarro is our guest tonight. >> we had over 100 gresmen and senators on capitol hill ready to implement the sweep. >> this guy did an interview with ari melber on msnbc last night. they have this plan to hype these gossamer fantastical claims of supposed fraud. >> he said the quiet part out loud. >> navarro explained what the coup plot had in common with the football play was teamwork and obviously brain damage. >> congratulations, peter navarro. i think you earned

peter navarro. let's play peter navorro saying basically, i did it. here he is. >> lost it.et me read you what he said. if the votes were sent back to the battleground states and looked at again there would be enough concerns amongst the legislatures and most of the states would decertify the election. that would throw it to the house of representative. i'll say to you here, ari. it was in the lanes legally. do we have it? i think we have it. >> if the votes were sent back to those battleground states and looked at again, that there would be enough concern amongst the legislators that most or all of those states would decertify the election. that would throw the election to the house of representatives, and i would say to you here, ari, all of this again was in the lanes legally. it was prescribed by the constitution. there is a provision to go rather than through the electoral college to the house of representatives, and all that's required was peace and calm on capitol hill. >> do you realize you are describing a coup? >> no. i totally reject many of your premises there. >

they now subpoenaed peter navarro. what does the committee hope to get out of him? >> peter was somebody involved in trying to delay the electoral count, he called it the green bay sweep, he wrote about it in a book he authored and also talked about it on msnbc with ari melber. let's play some of that. >> we had over 100 congressmen and senators on capitol hill ready to implement the sweep, and we were going to challenge the results of the elections in six battleground states, and most or all of those states would decertify the election and that would throw the election to the house of representatives. >> do you realize you are describing a coup? >> no. >> he laid out a plan, not calling it a coup, and that's what the january 6th committee wants to hear, who he planned this with and how involved the former president was, and they say you talked about it and just come and talk to us about it. we will see if he shows up. he has been subpoenaed. some of his information is out there and the committee wants more details, katy. >> leigh ann caldwell, pete williams, josh do

now, as far as former white house traded visor, peter navarro, he is actually public a.d. admitted to how involved he was in these efforts to overturn the 2020 election. but, the committee is asking for relevant documents as to how involved he was by wednesday. but lindsey, we will just have to wait and see if he complies. he could either cooperate with the committee, or fall in line with so many other former trump allies, who have been willing to face criminal charges for refusing to cooperate with the committee. >> all right, ali rough, a thanks so much. >> now, to the escalating tensions in the canadian capital. police in ottawa, once again moved in on protesters yesterday afternoon, arresting dozens of people, as they cleared the downtown area. here's ctv national news reporter glenn macgregor. >> the street in front of parliament hill had been the sight of protests and partying for three weeks. police took it back with force. >> freedom! >> wearing additional protective gear, they pushed demonstrators passed that warmer morial. >> i've got nothing else to lose, so arr

now, trump white house aide peter navarro has been in the thick of this, he admits he was working on what sounded like a related plot driving toward january 6th to also delay or decertify the results that showed that biden was the lawful winner. so he denies now being involved or aware of the electors plot, he admitted a lot but not that. that's something that boris epstein did admit to. show you both interviews here on the beat. >> alternate, fraudulent electors, when did you become aware of that plan? >> that's not part of my remit or on my radar. >> are you saying you never heard of that until it became public in the press or while you were in government? >> that's correct. my focus, ari, was simply on the green bay sweep plan. >> that was the focus. the other stuff, not on the radar. was it on the incumbent departing president's radar? that's a big question the committee notes in a letter that miss ward reportedly spoke with trump about election certification issues in arizona. here's what the rnc is saying today. they have a story where they say everyone needs to understand they

peter navarro has

. >> the news from the genesis committee today is the subpoena of economist peter navarro, coup prior to any of his involvement in the trump escapades was already guilty of being one of the worst economists in the country, as regarded by his colleagues. he has written a book about what's was his plan, talked about his plan. gave it a name about how to overturn this election. he has no conceivable claim of privilege in the face of the subpoena, especially since he has already talked about what the committee wants to know about in television interviews. >> that is why they should bring him in. he really has no claim of privilege. he has to also answer the tough questions. again, lawrence, what concerns me is that he put this out there in a book to monetize it because right now, he feels he has a green line, a permissive lane to do this. no one is being held accountable for what happened at the very top on january six. by the way, let me just say on economy, since we're out there, lawrence, this is the best democrats have had in a year. we should have a chance held high. 7 million jobs c

in particular because peter navarro has been so brazen in talking about his efforts to stand in the way's what the committee wants to talk to him about. he was part of a plot trying to find efld of fraud in some of the swing states and also, part of the group of people that were coming up with reasons for the former vice president mike pence to stand in the way of the certain if i case process on january 6th. we know they believe this peddling of information about election results in their mind fomented this anger across the country and led to so many people coming to washington only day and then eventually storming the capitol. so navarro has not been shy to talk about the role he played in all of this. he wrote a book about it. he's done extensive interviews. now they want to ask about what he hasn't talked about to find out how this all connects together. navarro is somebody who is usually willing to tangle in settings like this. we've reached out to him for comment to see how he would respond. he is certainly somebody the committee is very interesting in talks to. >> all right. than

this one time trade advisor peter navarro, the latest aide to be subpoenaed by the january 6th committeedo they need his testimony? >> this appears to go back to steve bannon. bannon was who they were pursuing. navorro when he was a white house trade adviser appeared to be working with bannon to overturn the 2020 election. navorro had written in his book about a green bay sweep. michigan was one of the states there was a focus on in the trump world to try and overturn the result of a popular vote there. he wrote it was the last best chance to snatch a stolen election from the democrat's jaws of deceit. so navorro said that trump was on board with this, that there were members of congress on board with this. the committee wants to talk to him about that. but the thing to take away from this, navorro is not a household name. it feels like there's a subpoena every day we're getting from them. in this it shows the committee is not just looking at january 6th, they want to pick away at understanding the entire disinformation committee and then claiming they were shielded from testimonies. we

the latest to trump adviser peter navarro is also targeting people like members of the rnc like an older lady whose husband just died. she happened to sign on as alternate elector. the panel is investigating whether rudy giuliani and other members of trump's inner circle led an effort to have fake electors tried to overturn the election results after grieving she signed on series. she wasn't even in washington on january 6. >>up until now, the committee's work has happened behind closed doors. but in the coming weeks, it's expected to become more public, including with public hearings in washington. alexandra limon. but 2 democratic senators want to put a few bucks back in your wallet when you fill up. >>they're proposing that the gas prices relief act would suspend the 18.4 cent federal tax through the end of the year. now gas companies would be monitored to make sure that they're passing savings to consumers and it would require the treasury to keep making transfers to the highway trust fund. now, while any price reduction would be a relief, according to triple a on average gases up mo

. >> the committee subpoenaed former trump aide peter navarro. i want to play you something he said. take a listen. >> given that you have told me that you have a plan that you pushed to delay or deal with the certification and said in public trump was on board, if you say that out here why risk a legal battle or going to jail to refuse to discuss them with the commit tee under oath? >> it is what it is. i've been subpoenaed to that committee. to testify and to turn over dock ms. the president said no. invoking executive privilege. not going to coordinate until they negotiate a reasonable pathway with the prt aen the attorneys. >> he was indicted for that. are you willing to risk indictment? >> i have a loyalty to the constitution and the president. >> congressman, he put it in a book. he shares it out with millions of viewers and seems ready to defy your subpoena. you have seen this fact before. mark meadows, rudy giuliani, are you confident in the department of justice to then take action? >> we're going to let the department of justice work th

continues with another member of trump's inner circle subpoenaed, former white house trade adviser peter navarro. the committee interested in navarro's efforts to overturn the election results in 2020. >> we were going to challenge the results of the election in the six battleground states. >> reporter: navarro responding to the subpoena by saying, as the domestic terrorists running the january 6th partisan witch-hunt are well aware, president trump has invoked executive privilege, and it is not my privilege to waive. as a byproduct of the january 6th attack, the gop going after its own, two members of the house select committee investigating the attack censured by the republican national committee, representative liz cheney, and representative adam kinzinger. but it is the three words the rnc used in reference to the january 6th insurrection thats have people talking. quote, legitimate political discourse. >> they weren't referring to people who have broken into this building. everyone understands that. >> reporter: an early draft referred to the investigation as a democrat-led persecution of o

january 6th committee subpoenas one time trump adviser peter navarro. a flurry of activity. the question is, where does it lead us? >> this is going to be a fascinating report when the january 6th committee eventually releases its report. they may do an interim one before the elections happen, but of course have to try to finish it up by the end of the year. they have uncovered a lot of information. they've talked to hundreds of witnesses. they've gotten documents from mark meadows to other people in the white house. now we know that there were 15 boxes or so that were in mar-a-lago that donald trump took from the white house, potentially in violation of the presidential records act, reporting suggests some of this was top secret information. does that shed any light into what happened on january 6th? so what new information, of course, do they reveal and what gaps are there? even if they do try to subpoena donald trump's cell phone records, possibly donald trump is going to fight this as he's known to do it. if he fights this it could drag on in court and perhaps still gaps
