Trump advisor Peter Navarro tears into FBI for 'putting him in leg irons and putting him in John Hinckley's cell' after his arrest for contempt of Congress: Calls Biden government 'authoritarian' and compares treatment to Stalinist Russia

Former Trump advisor Peter Navarro was indicted by a federal grand jury Friday for contempt of Congress for failing to comply with a subpoena from the Jan. 6 committee and says he was put in handcuffs and leg irons as he was arrested ahead of his first court date.

Navarro has been charged with two counts of contempt, one for failing to appear for a deposition before the committee and one for failing to produce documents. The former Trump trade adviser was approached by an FBI agent while trying to board a flight to Nashville for a TV appearance ahead of his court appearance in Washington, D.C. Friday afternoon for the charges.

Navarro told the court the FBI agent approached him and told him he could not contact anyone as he arrested Navarro.

All the new Republican house needs to do is refuse to fund the FBI.

Uh... Yeah, like they ever do that. Haven't you noticed they never refuse to fund a damn thing?

Pretty accurate description of our government these days.

Since we are talking about the Jan 6 Star Chamber, maybe a more apt description would be a Struggle Session:

I don’t know why Navarro is so focused on impeachment. It’s just a big show and nothing ever results from it. Biden, et al., should be tried for actual crimes.

“Stay strong and keep fighting graciously”.

I don’t think the Revolutionary War patriots fought “graciously”. Sadly, nobody is brave enough to fight with a vengeance any more.

“Well before 2024, the exact same thing will be done to Trump and every member of his family...”

Absolutely. This crap with Bannon, Navarro, the Jan. 6 POWs — just the opening act for the main event.

We told PDJT to “lock her up”. Instead, he gave her a pass, and he never will be aFforded the same thing. I understand that he wouldn’t have been successful considering his abysmal AGs, but he didn’t even try.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Even if the FBI were defunded, that would be a drop in the bucket. All the Acronym Agencies are corrupt. There is no hope unless God is merciful toward us.

Leaving aside whether the charges are justified or not, is he being treated any better or any worse than any other person being arrested? If not, cry me a river.

Is there any doubt Bannon and Navarro have been under surveillance? Phones, tapped and tracked, etc?

Since both were under investigation for criminal charges it wouldn't surprise me at all that they were.

After seeing this, and the people thrown into solitary without a trial, it should be obvious that the USA is currently a fascist dictatorship. It is currently no better than a banana republic run by corrupt criminals.

Remember the DGB?

Of course these Nazi tactics won’t be called out by the Hitlerian media.

There’s also the human cheat machines in certain cities which has been going on since before voting machines. Vote Early and Often has been a running joke among dems for over a decade.

Seems like elder abuse to me unless he was resisting arrest.

It’ll never happen, Americans are fundamentally lazy. As long as we are entertained, well fed and comfortable, we will never change. Change means an uprooting, discomfort and chaos. Folks don’t have the stomach for it. The best we will do is moan and whine and occasionally post a vicious statement or a savage meme.
