Just a day after he told MSDNC that he would help House Republicans to impeach Joe Biden next year, former Trump advisor Peter Navarro was arrested. Navarro was ambushed at the airport in Washington, DC, frog-marched in handcuffs for the benefit of the media, and charged with contempt of Congress. This is fairly unprecedented in recent years, despite several officials being held in contempt of Congress. We really do have two separate systems of justice: One for Republicans and another one for Democrats.
House Democrats voted to hold Navarro in contempt based on a referral from the January 6 Committee – which is not even a real congressional committee. The resolution that was passed to create the January 6 Committee states that it must have 8 Democrats and 5 Republicans on it. Nancy Pelosi rejected the original 5 Republicans selected for the committee and replaced them with Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. So, the committee has 8 Democrats and 2 Republicans. The committee’s very existence in this formulation is a violation of House rules, since its makeup doesn’t match the original resolution’s requirements.
Navarro has argued all along that the January 6 Committee is operating as a law enforcement branch of the government. This partisan committee is looking for any crime that they can charge Donald Trump with, in order to prevent him from running again in 2024. Law enforcement is not a proper function of the legislative branch; that’s the job of the executive branch.
Historically, there have been a few people who have been charged with contempt of Congress and jailed for a short time. This is a legitimate oversight function of the Congress. Contempt is used as a tool to compel document production or testimony from government employees who are hiding something. But those previous cases have always originated in the House Judiciary Committee, which is a real committee.
If it seems a little weird that Peter Navarro was arrested for a bogus contempt of Congress charge that originated in a fake committee, then you’ve been paying attention. Remember Barack Obama’s “wing man” Eric Holder? He was held in contempt of Congress back in June of 2012. He was the first sitting Cabinet member of an administration to ever be held in contempt of Congress.
The reason why Holder was held in contempt was because he refused for more than three years to release documents related to the Fast and Furious scandal. That was the operation where the Obama administration sold actual “weapons of war” to a Mexican drug cartel.
Among the weapons that Obama and Holder sold to the cartel were an automatic rifle that was used to kill Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry; a pair of AK-47s that were used to pepper an apartment building in Tucson, Arizona that killed two American civilians; the fully automatic AK-47s that were used by Islamic terrorists to murder 130 civilians in the 2015 Bataclan nightclub massacre in Paris and injure 419 others; and a .50 caliber Barrett sniper rifle that was found in the hideout of Mexican drug kingpin “El Chapo” when the CIA caught him.
The Obama administration killed all those people with the “weapons of war” they sold to a cartel. They refused to cooperate with a congressional investigation for more than three years. Holder refused to hand over any documents related to the scandal. The congressional vote to hold him in contempt was 255 to 67, with 17 Democrats voting in favor of contempt. It was bipartisan.
But the Justice Department did not spring into action to arrest Eric Holder. He wasn’t from the “wrong” political party. Eric Holder was Barack Obama’s “wing man,” so nothing happened to him. Holder knew that he was protected from arrest because he was in the right club. And he was so arrogant that he openly mocked the US Congress for holding him in contempt.
“I’m going to Disneyland!” he boasted when a reporter asked him what he would do next after being held in contempt. He knew he wasn’t going to jail.
But the same thing does not happen with a Republican like Peter Navarro. Navarro gets arrested at the airport by the FBI over a fake contempt of Congress vote that was referred to them by a fake committee. Holder walked free, despite the fact that his actions killed many dozens of people. Equal justice under the law? No, we don’t have that anymore.
We are about to have the formal unveiling of the democrat conspiracy theory about the January 6 “insurrection”. This may well be followed by an Enabling Act and the rounding up of regime opponents, as was done in Germany after the 1933 Reichstag Fire that was the obvious model for the democrat false flag operation. This is also planned to coincide with almost daily “mass shootings” that are almost certainly orchestrated by the regime and are intended to provide a pretext for a crackdown, and it appears that violence is planned at the Supreme Court in connection with the release of the abortion decision. All that is missing is another round of race riots as in 2020, and those are easy enough to whip up and the Molotov cocktails and brickbats may well have already been ordered. Patriots must now be ready to defend the dying First American Republic at all times.
Agreed! More than a coincidence that these mass shootings have started up on a regular basis. Obviously, a ploy by the dems in an effort to distract from the total and complete failure of their party. The cheaters will pay this November and we will take our country back. May be some riots, but the Republicans will facilitate law and order instead of letting the criminals back out onto the streets.
It is time to indict, try and send all these Socialist Marxist Communist Democrat Politicians and their RINO traitors to Federal Prison.
O Sounds like a Civil War just around the corner!! BIDEN AND company need to cut the crap and stop illegals and protect the AMERICAN PEOPLE post haste!!!
To all the morons who voted for Democrats, welcome to Communist controlled America. Be careful what you support as it will be called treason. The agenda changes what it will allow or not allow daily. And only the leftist elites are immune to any charges, punishments, or condemdemnations. Pelosi and others in the house and Senate commit insider trading without a word against them, Biden leaves millions of dollars of top or the line weapons of war for the Taliban terrorists to use or peddle to our Communist enemies and not one charge against him. Biden left hundreds of Americans in Afghanistan to be killed or tortured by the Taliban, flew unvetted and possible terrorists here to America, and the media is silent. Terrorists don’t care if you are democrat and support the proper leftist agenda, they will kill you and anyone else they can. The leftist elites support violence and unleashes their thugs to distract while they commit crimes. Welcome to Venezuela 2.0.
You said it so well
HERR KOMRAD . . . GOOT Job! I wonder what the DEMOCRATS will do NEXT. It’s in THEIR Communist MANIFESTO. One Enlightened And WARY Patriot.
If possible, Jimmy Carter and J.F.K. would “roll over” in their graves due to the current POTUS “occupant.” Doc B.
As corrupt as the Democrats are I pray that with a Republican take over in Nov. they have learned their lesson and stay on the course they speak now . Depending on the victory level absolute power corrupts absolutely, we the middle class end up no better
The way that the arrest of Mr. Navarro was carried out is a perfect example of how the DOJ operates, and illuminates how corrupt the 3 letter agencies are. This action was done blatantly, using Peter as an example for what can happen to ANY American. If there is one person in this country who remains unaware of what is being thrown in our faces, or remains in denial, I pray that they will see the light very soon. Remain vigilant, the Deep State is not going down voluntarily.
Why are they still in America! Thought that they were at Gitmo!
They need to have swim call at Gitmo. Lots of sharks there!!!
Still doing some things in the Country! Why are they allowed to do these things?
We all are aware of who is “ running” our country, an it ain’t the fumbling old pervert! It is the Kenyan liar! He is having his third term through a Doddering old stooge who is too inept to do anything right! Not only that, he is as crooked as the day is long! And he taught “ sonny” Hunter well on how to be a crook as well. Hunter embellished it with crack and prostitutes, and banging his dead brother’s wife! What upstanding citizens they are! No wonder our country is disintegrating before our eyes! With Obama, Biden, Gates and Fauci destroying our country, we don’t stand much chance of survival as a free country!
Doesn’t Navarro understand that he can’t impeach the Dictator?
IT IS TIME FOR THE PEOPLE TO GO TO THE FBI>AND DOJ> AND TAKE THE PEOPLE THERE OUT IN CHAINS AND PUT THEM IN PRISON FOR THEIR CRIMINAL ACTION> THEY ARE DOING NOTHING LEGAL NOW >:
JUST DOING ILLEGAL CRAP THAT THE CROOKED DEMORATS WANT THEM TO>:
The J6 Committee has subpoenaed everybody. My dream is that DJT picks the night they get lathered up to walk in and state that he wishes to provide evidence that is relevant and will only answer questions AFTER his evidence is seen. They will realize they are on all the major networks, and face Sophie’s Choice. He shows evidence that convicts them all, or they say no we don’t want your evidence and are laughed out of their jobs.
