NEW YORK (AP) — The Justice Department filed suit Wednesday against Peter Navarro, claiming the former adviser to Donald Trump used an unofficial email account while working in the White House and wrongfully retained presidential records.
The lawsuit in federal court in Washington claims Navarro used at least one “non-official” email account — a ProtonMail account — to send and receive emails. The legal action comes just weeks after Navarro was indicted on criminal charges after refusing to cooperate with a congressional investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.
The civil cases alleges that by using the unofficial email account, Navarro failed to turn over presidential records to the National Archives and Records Administration.
The Justice Department is asking a federal judge for an order “authorizing the recovery of any Presidential records in the possession, custody, and/or control of Mr. Navarro.” The suit also seeks unspecified damages.
“Mr. Navarro is wrongfully retaining Presidential records that are the property of the United States, and which constitute part of the permanent historical record of the prior administration,” the suit states.

And the criminal Billary, Inc,????
They are not going to stop.
Wasn’t this what Hillary did?
Use government agencies and LawFare on all Trump people. Make them unwilling and unable to serve.
Now do Hillary Clinton.
“In looking back at our investigations into mishandling or removal of classified information, we cannot find a case that would support bringing criminal charges on these facts. All the cases prosecuted involved some combination of: clearly intentional and willful mishandling of classified information; or vast quantities of materials exposed in such a way as to support an inference of intentional misconduct; or indications of disloyalty to the United States; or efforts to obstruct justice. We do not see those things here.”
And, Sniffin’ Pedo Joe.
Our former Secretary of State maintained a private server in her home while on the public dole and did not receive so much as a raised eyebrow. Do they want a civil war? Because dispensing grossly unequal justice and persecuting your political enemies is how you get a civil war.
Big Whoop.
Is that the worst ya got?
It’s okay when Hillary Clintoon does it. Double standard NAZI bastards.
IF Trump gets elected again (not likely, the Swamp won’t allow it), he should grant all of his friends blanket presidential pardons on his last day. On his first day, fire the FBI chief, Department of Justice crew, Gen Millie and anyone else who colluded to harass him and his friends.
Now do Hillary Clinton.
——————————————
Did you really have to say that? Come on. Not even Bill Clinton would do that.
Not directly related, but I was out walking and got to wondering “What if Trump had appointed Rudy Giuliani as Attorney General instead of the sack of disappointement named Sessions?
If we’re going to have a politicized DOJ I want one that works to support the President, not behind the scenes to undermine him.
The connection: Failure to reform the DOJ when he had the chance, plus appointing untrustworthy rats like Chris Wray is partially to blame for what is being done to Navarro.
Should read:
Barack Obama communicated Classified plans and a Drone strike .. .
Hillary did far worse. She actually had an entire email SERVER used to collect ALL of her communications. And she hired a bunch of foreigners to set up the hardware. Wow. talk about double standard. I tell you now, Garland is going to get his own punishment come January 21 and he isn’t going to have a cyanide pill to save him.
So I can’t delete my e-mails to Trump?
Don’t incriminate yourself!!!!
Did he have a private server is his bathroom that he used to store official correspondence, including correspondence carrying varying levels of security classification?
