Peter Navarro Indicted On Contempt of Congress Charges

[danielhowell]

How about convicting Congress on "Contempt of Congress Charges? Hmmm...

[realjsm]

The Green Bay sweep right into a jail cell.

[mikeespelund]

example of a double standard legal system

[quippy]

Shouldn't these people be eventually put in the jail under "18 US Code § 2385 - Advocating overthrow of Government"?

[Stiglr]

Don't know why EVERY ONE of the people who defied subpoenas weren't *immediately jailed*. Either the subpoenas have teeth or they don't. >So tired< of this "above the law" stance of these political weasels.

[tommycollier]

Dam when are they good too lock these criminals up.

[srf]

Hopefully he pulls a Jeffery Epstien and saves us the tax dollars.

[spinynorman]

His contempt for Congress could not be any greater than mine.

[Idancewithwolves]

I don't even know who this is or why it's important

[jamesdash]

Rules for thee, NOT FOR ME They are STILL SO AFRAID OF TRUMP

[FernandoOrtizok]

Trump once said “let’s drain the Swamp” 😂

[raynelson]

when congress behaves contemptibly how can contempt of congress be a crime?

[hemaccabe]

So they're saying Peter is hero. Congratulations Pete! You're a hero! Your service to America against the evil parasites is glorious!

[davidpotts]

The Committee has no legal subpoena powers. He was not subpoena by Congress just the house committee

[Hephzibah]

Disgusted! But no indictments for the Usurpers of our Country

[leeolmeda]

Bird of a feather. Trump will be next.

[danfry]

About time!! Let's keep it going D.O.J.

[nomore]

Congress needs to show some backbone and put these cartoon characters who ignore subpoenas in handcuffs. Most of us would be in trouble if we just didn't show up for jury duty. Time to set an example and punish Navarro to the full extent of the law. No More.

[marcypeterson]

Congress! Enforce this: "The criminal offense of contempt of Congress sets the penalty at not less than one month nor more than twelve months in jail and a fine of not more than $100, 000 or less than $100."

[cwb]

Because that worked so well on Eric holder.
