Peter Navarro says he has been subpoeaed by the DOJ with regards to 1/6

[Bev54]

~snip~

"According to Navarro, the grand jury subpoena directs him to appear for June 2 testimony and to produce any documents that would shed light on his refusal to testify to congressional investigators in February. The demand for documents, he says, include records of any contacts he had with Trump or the former president’s attorneys."

1. Very good

news!

[2naSalit]

2. Very interesting...

[Bev54]

3. It is, I wonder how many more have received subpoenas that are not publicly saying.

We know that Ali Alexander received one awhile ago.

[ecstatic]

4. Oh hell to the yeah

We need some jail smileys.

[Leghorn21]

5. Yes, and he's representing *himself*, too!!

[sheshe2]

12. Only a fool represents themselves.

[Trueblue1968]

6. if he won't show up, ask the Queen of England if we can borrow a dungeon in the TOWER OF LONDON

HE WOULD LOVE IT THERE.

i vote to put there in a dark dank place with RATS the size of my Annie Cat !!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Fiendish Thingy]

7. This should be fun...

I’d forgotten about Navarro; he might be one of the first to flip.

[malaise]

22. He went on Ari and literally spilled the beans

[Fiendish Thingy]

29. But now he'll be under oath. Nt

[Sogo]

8. A glimmer of hope....

that in-depth investigations are ongoing at DOJ....

[onecaliberal]

9. So happy to be wrong about this.

[Baked Potato]

10. That guy is squirrelly as all get out. Hope he shows up,

he may go full Jack Nicholson.

[Mr.Bill]

11. No way he will comply. n/t

[drray23]

13. I think he will.

This is not a congressional subpoena that he can just ignore knowing congress can't enforce it. It's a DOJ subpoena. They can drag him in front of them and if he refuses he will land in jail.

[Bev54]

14. Oh I think he will comply. This is much different from him refusing the 1/6 committee

This is serious and his bs executive privilege claim is not going to fly at all. He will be in for a world of hurt.

[Mr.Bill]

15. If he shows up he will take the 5th amendment or

repeatedly say he doesn't remember. But I think he firmly believes he has executive privilege, and he will die being the last man on earth to believe that. You can't change these people's minds, and they aren't afraid of consequences, and for very good reason - there haven't been any.

[Bev54]

30. Quite possibly, but he cannot use the executive privilege bs.

[CousinIT]

16. Bannon is next I hope. n/t

[Mr.Bill]

32. Eventually I see Bannon fleeing the country

and never returning.

17. Peter Navarro is litigating this pro se.

Before TFG, Navarro was a third or fourth tier academic that no one paid attention to. Jarod did a google search and found Navarro because Navarro was one of the few people who supported some of TFG crazed economic policies.

There is a saying in my profession, that a person who represents himself has a fool for a client. Navarro is truly a fool

[LetMyPeopleVote]

18. No, actually, he's litigating it "ro se."

This idiot is using terms that he does not understand

[fightforfreedom]

19. BOOM!

Hell is coming for Trumps inner circle. Navarro admitted, described the attempted coup on TV. His logic, I will just tell everyone the attempted coup was legal. Enjoy your time in prison asshole.

[malaise]

20. This are getting serious

He’s up shit creek

[Novara]

21. See? The J6 committee is not done. And ...

... neither is the DOJ. They're getting closer and closer to the top.

Patience, people. The public televised hearings start in NINE days. Just over a week from now. Fasten your seatbelts.

[lindysalsagal]

23. So, tfg's lackey is a dolt? I'm shocked.

Not. He fell in love with a failed casino gangster/money launderer. Of course the guy's the president of mensa!

[kentuck]

24. He will explain the Green Bay Sweep in detail...

It was more of a "Green Bay Swipe".

[Mr. Ected]

25. As long as he didn't get a Trump pocket pardon this should be interesting

I'm just afraid the lot of them got their pardons and know today that they will get away with having nearly stolen our democracy...with brighter skies in the future for them.

Scary.

[kentuck]

26. I plan on running for President in ten years and I have a pocketful of pardons all ready to go...

I'm sure no one will have any problem with that. After I pardon myself and my family, then you come next.

[Mr. Ected]

27. Thanks, kentuck!

I've got a decade to plan the greatest crime spree of all time! Woo hoo!

It would be hilarious if it wasn't true...but it is possible...and maybe even probable...that Trump has already exonerated himself and knows that he will be long gone before it is ever determined in the courts whether a president can pardon himself.

[hatrack]

28. "While I am not a lawyer, I'm not without legal expertise"

Yeah, I used to watch Perry Mason on ME TV on a regular basis.

Oh, and it's "Pro Se", not "Ro Se", you quivering sockful of tapioca and cat turds.

[kentuck]

31. What would happen if the DOJ subpoenaed Kevin McCarthy?

The Minority Leader of the Republicans in the House?

Would he try to pull the same trick as Navarro?

It would indicate the degree of corruption that has enveloped the Republican Party.

[Bev54]

33. The 1/6 committee has already subpoenaed McCarthy and he is pulling a Navarro, sort of

He is closer to a Gym Jordon, wanting to see all the evidence against him, hahahaha, sorry it makes me laugh each and every time. If the committee refers them to the DOJ for indictment then I think he and others will fold. Navarro will end up meeting with the DOJ grand jury and he better be on his best behaviour because he is going to be up shit creek soon.
