The FBI on Friday arrested Trump’s advisor Dr. Peter Navarro at a DC-area airport.

Navarro was on his way to Nashville when the Stasi took him into custody in a surprise ambush.

According to media reports, Navarro told the judge that he doesn’t need a lawyer because he wants to represent himself.

CNN reported:

A federal grand jury has indicted former Trump White House adviser Peter Navarro for contempt of Congress after he refused to cooperate in the House January 6 committee’s investigation.

During a court appearance in Washington, DC, on Friday, Navarro said that he still wants to represent himself without a lawyer and accused prosecutors of using “hardball” tactics by arresting him at an airport and not allowing him to make a phone call.

Navarro said he was arrested at a DC-area airport Friday on his way to Nashville.

At Friday’s court appearance, Judge Zia Faruqui expressed concern about allowing Navarro to represent himself. “I think it’s important that you have counsel,” the judge told him.

Navarro said he was OK with the judge appointing counsel “for today” and that he sent prosecutors an email with an attorney contact as they work this out. Navarro, who has a Ph.D in economics, is not an attorney.

“The arraignment should be postponed for a number of reasons,” Navarro added, requesting that his civil lawsuit against the House January 6 committee go forward before any criminal proceedings.

A federal grand jury on Friday indicted Peter Navarro for contempt of Congress after he refused to cooperate with Liz Cheney’s unconstitutional January 6 Committee.

The FBI, F*CKING Cowards ALL OF THEM !

Not according to Hannity. Of course, he’s only saying that because he doesn’t want them coming after him, for being friends with Trump. Hannity knows martial arts, you know.

I look forward to the day when the pendulum swings the other way. These communist scum need to pay the ultimate price.

Biden is not doing it.
The DC politburo that is running the White House is doing it. Biden is a ventriloquist dummy.

This sums it up very well:

Nothing. Be an advisor for a president. He has shown no willingness to cooperate or converse at all. That should clear the way for pleading the 5th throughout the kangaroo process.

Waiting to arrest him at the airport instead of at his home which is near FBI headquarters, publicly putting an almost 75 year old in handcuffs and LEG IRONS then locking him in John Hinckley’s old cell. WTF FBI?

The next President needs to clean house in the DOJ....make every single last one re-interview for their jobs...ask them the tough questions...and if they pass that, make them sign a no political non-bias statement which mandates immediate firing if it is later detected

And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.

He needs a lawyer, if nothing else to remind him to shut up.

My heart aches for him as well as President Trump and his family. They did so much to MAGA. It’s just so wrong. 🙏
