| Unearthed Emails Confirm Biden Admin's Heavy Hand In Navarro Prosecution |
| 2025-05-02 |
| [ZH] Not a surprise. Did Garland get a pardon? Why no, he didn't. Ruin his life Newly unearthed emails confirm what the Biden administration had repeatedly denied: It was heavily involved in the 2022 prosecution of Trump trade counselor Peter Navarro... Navarro, one of the top officials in the first Trump White House, had challenged the Jan. 6 Committee’s overreach by invoking executive privilege in refusing to comply with their subpoenas. It appears the Biden DOJ wanted to make an example of Navarro. In one email dated May 19, 2022—just days before Navarro was indicted—FBI Special Agent Walter Giardina wrote to fellow agents about instructions from the U.S. attorney for D.C., after the latter’s consultation "with main Justice." The email read, "I just spoke with DC USAO, after consultation with main Justice, they are not intending to prosecute Meadows or Scavino. This decision is based on their White House positions and prior DOJ opinions. .. We have been told to cease work on those case. [sic]" Signaling the government’s intent to go after Navarro, the email continued, "They would like to charge Navarro in the next two weeks however."
