Late last week, another one of ex-President Donald Trump’s closest, most devout insiders and allies found himself on the chopping block in the most embarrassing kind of way, when the January 6th House Select Committee made it clear that they meant all those warnings they’ve been giving to Trump’s inner circle lately.
On Friday, staunch MAGA loyalist Peter Navarro found out the hard way that the House Panel currently investigating the infamous, deadly Capitol attack is officially fed up and finished with the “f*cking around” part of this investigation. They’re now steamrolling forward with the “find out” portion after the United States Department of Justice released a statement revealing that Navarro had officially been indicted on Contempt of Congress charges.
This news came on the heels of Navarro making it crystal clear to anyone who would listen that he refused to comply with the subpoena “in any way.” He is now reaping the consequences of that decision.
Peter himself effectively flipped out outside of the courthouse and personally revealed that he was “handcuffed” in an airport over the charges.

But for all the panicking Peter has been doing, it seems that his Dear Leader is doing more.
Former President Donald Trump finally broke his silence on the news of Navarro’s indictment in a post he made on his Truth Social platform — and to say that he reeks of fear at this point, would be an understatement.
“Our great trade genius, Professor Peter Navarro, was just handcuffed, shackled, and put in jail, while the lowlifes of ANTIFA & BLM are allowed to rip off the public, roam free on the streets, kill people, and destroy our once great cities (all run by Democrats). When will this end?” Trump begged in a Truth. “The American people will not stand for it much longer! Great patriotic heroes are being created every day. FAIRNESS AND JUSTICE must rule the day!”

With the House Committee’s bombshell public hearings right around the corner, it’s crystal clear that Trump is shaking in his boots at this point. And, frankly, he should be. The DOJ specifically pointed out in the statement on Navarro’s indictment that the staunch Trump ally’s charges carry “a minimum of 30 days and a maximum of one year in jail, as well as a fine of up to $100,000. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.”
