For his flouting of a subpoena from a congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, Peter Navarro, a self-proclaimed champion of a plan with far-right bloviator and ex-Donald Trump adviser Steve Bannon to contest ballots in the 2020 election, was sentenced to 4 months in prison.

U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta expressed significant doubt that Navarro, 74, ever intended to accept responsibility for his actions despite pleas from defense lawyer Stanley Woodward on Thursday suggesting otherwise.

The “idea that somehow he has exhibited clear demonstration” of his accepting responsibility for his actions was “sort of hard to reconcile” with what Navarro has said about the case historically, Politico first reported Thursday. As recently as last week, Navarro claimed the case against him was a “political prosecution,” according to Washington, D.C., CBS affiliate WUSA.

“I haven’t heard a word of contrition from Dr. Navarro since this case began. Maybe we will hear some today. I suspect not,” Mehta added, according to NBC.

He would not.
