The FBI and Capitol Police want to talk with Rep. Maxine Waters’ 2018 Republican opponent about a fake letter he posted to Twitter that falsely indicated the congresswoman wants to resettle tens of thousands of refugees in her Los Angeles district.
The Republican candidate, Omar Navarro, said he will meet with FBI agents at his California campaign office Wednesday at their request.
In December, Waters formally asked the FBI and Capitol Police to investigate the letter, which appears to be on Waters’ House office stationery and includes her signature.
It is a federal crime to impersonate a federal official and misuse a federal seal.
Navarro told The Times after Waters filed the December complaint that someone he did not know sent his campaign the letter on Facebook, and he did not vet whether it was real before putting it online.
“I don’t know why they are looking into me since I’m not the one who fabricated the letter,” Navarro said Monday. He said he has not had contact with the person who sent him the letter since December.
Navarro has not deleted the tweet from his account and it continues to be retweeted, totaling more than 800 times as of this week.

Maxine must be losing ,LOL
What’s the charge?
Thus is totally under the auspices of free speech.
Are they going to go after Dan Rather? How about the writers of the Steele Dossier?
No? Then tell me how this isn’t another political witch hunt?
Maxine going maxinsane.
Uh, it might have something to do with that "(R)" after his name.
Are they going to go after Dan Rather? How about the writers of the Steele Dossier?
C’mon now, we all the FBI plays by two different sets of rules.
So when did the FBI start to look at fake tweets.....if that is there job they need to each start going after the left or close down the FBI as it is a waste of money if their are sinking this low
A setup by Mad Max????
why read all of Hillary’s tweets?
Her people run the polling stations so she can’t lose ,LOL
Mad Max doesn’t care a bit about her district or the people in it. She won’t even live in her own district; she’s much better than they are, don’t ya know...
I meant email of course.
Forgery might work. I would think that would be a state crime, however, not something the Obama controlled FBI/Just Us department should get involved with.
It is another Witch Hunt.
Why isn’t the FBI investigating Mad Max for pushing for violence?
“It is a federal crime to impersonate a federal official and misuse a federal seal.”
No one ever went after Obama and Hillary for doing this.
It's nice of the FBI to get rignt on this, and ignore Maxine's incitements of violence.
It’s disgusting how the fags and pedophiles always only want to talk with the “Republicans”. Mad Maxine can talk all day long about killing white people and the fed boys are scared sh*tless to talk to her. Sissy boys.
What’s the charge?

Challenging a Democrat with the intent of winning.
“It is a federal crime to impersonate a federal official and misuse a federal seal.”
Have the FBI investigated Odumbo for this?
