A federal judge on Friday ripped DOJ prosecutors for ignoring Hunter Biden-related subpoenas while pointing out that Trump’s top advisor is in prison for defying a subpoena issued by House members.
In September former Trump advisor Dr. Peter Navarro, 74, was convicted of criminal contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with a subpoena in Liz Cheney’s January 6 investigation.
Navarro did not comply with the subpoena because he said Trump told him to assert executive privilege.
Hunter Biden blatantly defied a congressional subpoena and nothing happened to him. He is a free man while Navarro sits in prison.
US District Judge Ana Reyes, a Biden appointee, blasted Justice Department prosecutors for ignoring subpoenas issued to two DOJ lawyers in the tax division over their role in Hunter Biden’s federal investigation.
“There’s a person in jail right now because you all brought a criminal lawsuit against him because he did not appear for a House subpoena,” Judge Reyes said, referring to Peter Navarro. “And now you guys are flouting those subpoenas. … And you don’t have to show up?”
“I think it’s quite rich you guys pursue criminal investigations and put people in jail for not showing up,” but then direct current executive branch employees to take the same approach, judge Reyes said, according to Politico. “You all are making a bunch of arguments that you would never accept from any other litigant.”

Haven’t a great many people ignored congress in this way over the years. Hell I reached the point of believing that congress COULD’NT do anything about people “flouting “ their “investigations.
Not kidding you, your honor, rather blowing warm smoke up.....so, feeling good, are you ok with it?
...so shines a good deed in a naughty world.
God Bless Reyes.
Dr. Peter Navarro is 2 years younger than I am, He has my total respect.
And the Cabal (RINO’s, ComDems, Propaganda Media, Communist, Fascists, Globalists, Corpratists) are all still Hell bent on Destroying the USA and enslaving the world.
Not tin foil hat stuff, it is real.
And President Trump and some of the Republicans and the informed voters are all that stands in the way of it.
Every step is plotted through Obozo and his minions.
God PLEASE, helps us to end this insanity.
DOJ = Democrats Owns Justice ?.
And Republican cowards say nothing.
The judge is the first(!) Latina LBGTQ judge on the bench in that district. She’s not an ally, but even a blind squirrel finds an occasional acorn.
