Biden's Justice Department shatters historical precedent imprisoning Trump Trade Advisor Peter Navarro for contempt of Congress, destroying a 250-year tradition of honoring executive privilege.

Obama's DOJ didn't prosecute Eric Holder and Lois Lerner following contempt referrals after they invoked executive privilege.

Bush's DOJ didn't prosecute Josh Bolten and Harriet Miers following contempt referrals after they invoked executive privilege.

The Justice Department hasn't prosecuted executive officials who were instructed by the president to invoke executive privilege until now.

The last time anyone was sentenced for contempt of Congress was in 1948.

Navarro, a Harvard-educated economist known for his efforts to restore American manufacturing, will serve four months in prison.

When is Hunter being locked up?

If Trump somehow pulls this off I hope and pray he pays it back to them in spades.

One of these days right leaning politicians & bureaucrats (to the extent those exist) are going to stop being the grownups in the room and liberals are going to wonder wtf happened.

I find it amusing that they use that particular term when the vast majority of the population has actual contempt for Congress.

I'd be put away for life if they charged me.

we are a joke of a country.

navarro chose to ignore congress and made up a "executive privilege" defense. he didn't even say he relied on advice of counsel like bannon did.

this is why navarro is one of few people to ever go to jail for contempt of congress from either party.


yes, "justice" often times screws republicans over democrats, but this is not one of those times

Jailed for doing a Democrat thing while not being a Democrat.

Fwiw, you do need the executive to back your claim of executive privilege…but still, the Dems seem to ALWAYS skate on this matter.

Do nothing House Republicans probably need to hold him in contempt first!

When are republicans going to grow a spine? We had to vote twice to impeach Mayorkas and it doesn't even look like we'll have the testicular fortitude to impeach Biden for all his crimes when we've got tons of evidence against him.

How many dems are guilty of the same thing Navarro is? Republicans did nothing. I'm tired of this one sided civil war.

This country is doomed. The fall of the Roman empire started with the bucking of long held social and political tradition.

That is not an excuse for dereliction of duty!

This applies to impeachment also. Who cares if the Senate will convict or not.

GOP leadership is so spineless.

Lawfare pure and simple unless you can convince me that ANY leftard would have suffered the same fate.

What you DO have is a handful of unsanctioned state militias and various goofy slapstick organizations like Patriot Front and Moms for Liberty. Don't be discouraged, I'm sure they could do some damage if they were so inclined.

When does Hunter report? He defied congress as well didn't he?

So, double standards of justice don't bother you so long as it works out in your party's favor then?

Nah. Too many FBI agents have spring break with the kids. Have to wait a couple more weeks.


Jeebus. Antifa and BLM literally attack LEO openly at the local, state, and federal level. They burn buildings to the ground, including police HQ's and federal buildings. They riot and loot whole cities and harass innocent local citizens.

And you're rambling on about a couple of groups made up mostly of feds that 95% of the country has never heard of. Clown show.

Imprisoning your political opponents. Now where have I seen that before?

This is just the beginning still

Don't you have a gender identity crisis to attend to?

That idiot John Roberts denied Peter Navarro's appeal to stay out on appeal bond while he pursues his appeal of the J6 contempt BS. The Biden regime is sending Peter Navarro, one of Trump's top advisors with a PhD from Harvard, to prison for defying a subpoena from the illegitimate J6 Committee, even after the recent release of the wormholed exculpatory evidence showing the J6 hacks actually obstructed justice by withholding anything that killed their case.

I do have one question? How is Bannon still free pending appeal for the exact same conviction?

Democrats might be cheering, but I hope they realize the Pandora's box they've opened

The pendulum will swing back…

FJB

Revenge tour 2025! Can't wait

I actually think this is a good thing. Comity, tradition, and respect for the other side are now officially dead and buried.

Payback is coming, in spades, for the communists (aka democrats). GCF got away with her bath tub server, smashing phones, etc. in a different era.

One of the funniest posts I've read on F16. You nailed it!

Oh, he has a doctorate from Harvard? Well dang set him free!

Didn't know there was a such thing as an exculpatory post graduate degree.

And yet, they haven't been "so inclined".

As opposed to the groups on the left that apparently are "often inclined" to do damage...

Perhaps the right is a lot more restrained than you think...

I thought bucking political tradition is what we've been wanting? Especially in draining the swamp and not letting politicians skate by.
