Donald Trump left Peter Navarro twisting in the wind, lobbing an eleventh hour claim just ahead of Navarro's contempt trial. (via The ReidOut Blog)

Navarro’s contempt of Congress trial for refusing to cooperate with a House Jan. 6 committee subpoena is scheduled to begin Jan. 30. to overturn the 2020 election, has made several dubious claims in an effort to stave off the contempt trial. Most notably, he alleges he’s been unfairly targeted by the Department of Justice because it declined to prosecute at least two other former Trump White House aides who spurned committee subpoenas.

Navarro told a federal judge that Trump — as a former president — wanted him to claim executive privilege over the subpoena. But unlike former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and former deputy chief of staff Dan Scavino, both of whom also refused to fully cooperate with the Jan. 6 committee, Navarro had no proof whatsoever that Trump had claimed privilege of his testimony.got a letter from Trump they gave to the committee, outlining his questionable privilege claims.

All of you disinfo clowns and your ccp masters - aren't worthy of shining the great man's shoes. But if you ask nice, he might let you wash his socks & undies.

What will you do without Trump Go from 5000 to 500 viewers ?!?!

To think trump gives a rat’s posterior about anyone else other than himself is pure comedy!

Tell me a politician who doesn’t do this, I will show you one who is six feet underground! This is job hazard! It comes with the job, buddy!

Trump again, please seek help.

Relative to his other coconspirators, Peter played a minor role in Donald's sedition. Donald doesn't have time for small-timers anymore. He knows his days as unindicted coconspirator are numbered.
