随着调查进入立法者所说的“关键阶段”，众议院特别委员会调查了1月6日国会大厦袭击周一建议，合议庭以蔑视国会为由，拘留特朗普白宫高级官员，因为他们拒绝遵守国会关于推翻2020年大选的记录和证词的传票。

在委员会一致投票之前，该小组周日发布了一份34页的报告，列出了国会调查人员对彼得·纳瓦罗(Peter Navarro)和丹·斯卡维诺(Dan Scavino)的兴趣，以及这两位特朗普的忠诚者如何拒绝要求他们合作的请求，然后在周一晚上就是否将此事提交众议院进行投票。

两个人都“阻挠”了委员会，主席本尼·汤普森，D-密西西比州。，舒克说。

“他们骗不了任何人。他们有义务配合我们的调查。他们拒绝这样做。这是一种犯罪，”他说。

众议院投票成功后，将会把案件移交给司法部，由司法部决定是否追究刑事责任。每项藐视法庭的指控可能会带来高达10万美元的罚款和长达一年的监禁。

纳瓦罗在投票后发布的一份声明中说:“专责委员会的政治迫害是基于一个荒谬的法律前提，即乔·拜登可以放弃唐纳德·特朗普的行政特权。”“到时候最高法院会说不同的话——这肯定是必须的——DOJ知道这种胡说八道会破坏行政特权及其在有效的总统决策中发挥的关键作用。”

纳瓦罗说:“2020年的选举是从唐纳德·特朗普那里偷走的，就像JFK在1960年从尼克松那里偷走的一样。”。“如果这是真的——我发现这是真的——对我提起的藐视法庭指控的整个前提就崩溃了。”

司法部已经起诉特朗普因拒绝遵守委员会的传票而与史蒂夫·班农结盟。对否认有罪的班农的审判可能会在今年夏天开始。

DOJ尚未就众议院提交的关于特朗普前幕僚长马克·梅多斯(Mark Meadows)拒绝全面配合委员会传票的案件采取行动，一些委员会成员周一暗示了这一点，似乎是在批评。

众议员亚当·希夫(Adam Schiff)周一表示，“司法部有责任对这一转介和我们发出的其他转介采取行动。”“没有国会传票的执行，就没有监督，没有监督，就没有责任——对前总统，或任何其他总统，过去的，现在的，或未来的。”

纳瓦罗曾正式担任时任总统的贸易顾问唐纳德·特朗普在白宫西翼，发表了一份报告，指控总统选举被特朗普窃取——他说特朗普在1月6日之前向所有共和党国会议员分发了这份报告。

该委员会在报告中写道，纳瓦罗还与特朗普的盟友史蒂夫·班农密切合作，推迟国会对选举的认证，并推翻选举结果，纳瓦罗在他的书《在特朗普时代》中称该计划为“绿湾扫荡”

根据该委员会的说法，纳瓦罗在1月6日与班农进行了交谈，鼓励特朗普的同事联系特朗普的盟友罗杰·斯通，讨论1月6日的计划，并鼓励数百名州议员在选举结果认证之前“采取行动”。

纳瓦罗一再重申回绝了委员会并拒绝遵守其传票，认为特朗普对他们的通信援引了行政特权，尽管他在书中详细描述了他的部分工作，尽管现任总司令乔·拜登总统拒绝对他的证词援引特权。

“我的立场仍然是，这不是我可以放弃的行政特权，委员会应该与特朗普总统谈判此事。”纳瓦罗在周日的一份声明中说，作为对委员会报告的回应。“如果他放弃特权，我会很乐意遵守;但我没有看到该委员会努力与特朗普总统澄清此事，这是不诚信和糟糕的法律。”

怀俄明州共和党众议员利兹·切尼(Liz Cheney)周一称纳瓦罗是“关键证人”，他“写了一本书，吹嘘他在规划和协调1月6日活动中的作用，但他没有勇气在这里作证。”

最高法院此前驳回了特朗普的特权主张，并拒绝阻止该委员会查看特朗普的一些白宫记录。该小组还认为，纳瓦罗与选举有关的工作不是以政府官员的身份完成的，不属于行政特权的范围。

“我们希望与斯卡维诺和纳瓦罗谈谈他们在试图推翻选举中扮演的角色。汤普森驳斥了他们声称的特权，他说:“美国人民并没有为此付出他们的薪水。

该委员会在报告中写道，副幕僚长、特朗普的长期助手斯卡维诺“处于独特的地位，可以阐明”特朗普在1月6日之前的知识和行动。

斯卡维诺还在放大特朗普关于大规模选举欺诈的毫无根据的说法方面发挥了核心作用，他管理着时任总统的推特和其他社交媒体账户。

众议员亚当·金辛格。，暗示斯卡维诺“可以告诉我们”特朗普1月6日在想什么。

“我们需要听听他的意见，”他周一表示。

根据该委员会的报告，该小组已获得证据表明，斯卡维诺在1月6日与特朗普“多次”通话，并在他面临公共和私人电话要求帮助制止国会大厦暴力时与他在白宫。

该委员会指出他在网上的存在以及与特朗普在社交媒体上的关注的链接，表示它“有理由相信”斯卡维诺“可能事先警告过1月6日发生暴力的可能性”，因为亲特朗普论坛上的在线活动表明华盛顿可能发生暴力。

“总统和其他高级官员是否以及何时知道即将发生的暴力事件，与特别委员会的调查和对立法建议的考虑高度相关，”该委员会写道。

该小组发布了三张传票包括美国法警向特朗普在佛罗里达州棕榈滩的Mar-a-Lago俱乐部交付的一份文件，并同意在去年六次推迟他的证词和文件制作截止日期。然而，该委员会在其报告中表示，斯卡维诺“没有出示任何文件，也没有出庭作证。”

斯卡维诺还在一月份起诉威瑞森，阻止该运营商向委员会提交他的手机记录。

代表斯卡维诺的律师没有回应ABC新闻的置评请求。

Jan. 6 committee recommends Navarro, Scavino be held in contempt of Congress

As it enters what lawmakers called a "critical phase" of its inquiry, the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6Capitol attackrecommended on Monday that the full chamber hold senior Trump White House officials in contempt of Congress for their refusal to comply with congressional subpoenas for records and testimony related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

Ahead of the unanimous committee vote, the panel released a 34-page report on Sunday laying out congressional investigators' interest in Peter Navarro and Dan Scavino, and how both Trump loyalists rebuffed requests for their cooperation, ahead of Monday night's vote on whether to refer the matter to the House.

Both men "stonewalled" the committee, Chairman Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said Monday.

"They're not fooling anybody. They are obligated to comply with our investigation. They have refused to do so. And that's a crime," he said.

A successful House vote would send the referrals to the Justice Department, which would decide whether to pursue criminal charges. Each contempt charge could carry up to a $100,000 fine and up to one year in jail.

"The Select Committee’s witch hunt is predicated on the ridiculous legal premise that Joe Biden can waive Donald Trump’s Executive Privilege," Navarro said as part of a statement released after the vote. "The Supreme Court will say otherwise when the time comes -- as it surely must -- and the DOJ knows such nonsense would gut Executive Privilege and the critical role it plays in effective presidential decision making."

"The 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump just as surely as JFK stole it from Nixon in 1960," Navarro said. "If that is true -- which I have found it to be -- the entire premise of the contempt charges filed against me fall to pieces."

The Justice Department hasindictedTrump ally Steve Bannon for refusing to comply with the committee's subpoena. The trial for Bannon, who has pleaded not guilty, could begin this summer.

The DOJ has not taken action on a referral from the House over former Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows' refusal to fully cooperate with the committee's subpoena -- something several committee members alluded to on Monday and appeared to criticize.

"The Department of Justice has a duty to act on this referral and others that we have sent," Rep. Adam Schiff said Monday. "Without enforcement of Congressional subpoenas, there is no oversight, and without oversight, no accountability -- for the former President, or any other president, past, present, or future."

Navarro, who officially served as a trade adviser to then-PresidentDonald Trumpin the White House's West Wing, produced a report alleging that the presidential election was stolen from Trump -- which he said Trump distributed to all Republican members of Congress prior to Jan. 6.

The committee wrote in its report that Navarro also worked closely with Trump ally Steve Bannon to delay Congress' certification of the election and to overturn the results, a plan Navarro dubbed the "Green Bay Sweep" in his book, "In Trump Time."

According to the committee, Navarro spoke to Bannon on Jan. 6, encouraged Trump associates to contact Trump ally Roger Stone to discuss Jan. 6 plans, and encouraged hundreds of state legislators to "take action" ahead of the certification of the election results.

Navarro has repeatedlyrebuffed the committeeand has refused to comply with its subpoena, arguing that Trump invoked executive privilege over their communications, even though he detailed parts of his work in his book -- and even though President Joe Biden, as the current commander-in-chief, declined to invoke privilege over his testimony.

"My position remains this is not my Executive Privilege to waive and the Committee should negotiate this matter with President Trump." Navarro said in a statement Sunday, in response to the committee's report. "If he waives the privilege, I will be happy to comply; but I see no effort by the Committee to clarify this matter with President Trump, which is bad faith and bad law."

Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., on Monday called Navarro a "key witness" who had "written a book boasting about his role in planning and coordinating the activity of Jan. 6, and yet he does not have the courage to testify here."

The Supreme Court previously rejected Trump's claims of privilege and refused to block the committee from some Trump White House records. The panel has also argued that Navarro's election-related work was not done in his capacity as a government official and would not be covered by executive privilege.

"We want to talk to Mr. Scavino and Mr. Navarro about their roles in an attempt to overturn an election. The American people didn't pay their salaries to do that," Thompson said, dismissing their claims of privilege.

The committee wrote in its report that Scavino, a deputy chief of staff and longtime Trump aide, was "uniquely positioned to illuminate" Trump's knowledge and actions leading up to Jan. 6.

Scavino also played a central part in amplifying Trump's unfounded claims of widespread election fraud in his role managing the then-president's Twitter and other social media accounts.

Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., suggested Scavino "could tell us" what Trump was thinking on Jan. 6.

"We need to hear from him," he said on Monday.

According to the committee's report, the panel has obtained evidence that Scavino spoke to Trump "several times" on Jan. 6 and was with him at the White House as he faced public and private calls to help stop the violence at the Capitol.

Pointing to his online presence and links to Trump's following on social media, the committee said it had "reason to believe" that Scavino "may have had advance warning of the possibility of violence on Jan. 6," given online activity on pro-Trump forums that suggested potential violence in Washington.

"Whether and when the President and other senior officials knew of impending violence is highly relevant to the Select Committee's investigation and consideration of legislative recommendations," the committee wrote.

The panel issuedthree subpoenasto Scavino -- including one delivered by U.S. Marshals to Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Florida -- and agreed to delay his deposition and document production deadline half a dozen times last year. Yet the committee said in its report that Scavino had "not produced a single document, nor has he appeared for testimony."

Scavino also sued Verizon in January to stop the carrier from turning over his cell phone records to the committee.

An attorney representing Scavino did not respond to requests for comment from ABC News.
