Peter Navarro was the White House trade director to the President of the United States.
We’ve had constitutional executive privilege for 250 years, going back to George Washington.
So Presidents can get candid advice from their aides without fear they will get hauled before Congress—and especially not get thrown in prison.
The destruction of constitutional executive privilege—by Biden, his Justice Department, House Democrats, and these hyper-partisan 4 DC Democrat judges—to get Trump is short-sighted and highly destructive to the presidency.
Especially as they ignore Biden’s blatant foreign corruption and Hunter’s own blatant contempt of Congress.
Truly shameful.
Hope Biden (and Obama) White House officials understand they are now fair targets under a Trump 47 Justice Department.
Below are pictures of the 4 hyper-partisan DC Obama judges who are destroying the presidency--and the legitimacy of the federal judiciary.
Left to Right: 1. Amit Priyavadan Mehta, DC District Judge 2. Robert Leon Wilkins, DC Circuit Judge 3. Cornelia (Nina) Pillard, DC Circuit Judge 4. Patricia Ann Millett, DC Circuit Judge
Here is my prior 🧵 on my outrage at the DC federal courts:
Federal judges must release January 6th protesters wrongfully convicted under the Biden DOJ’s politicized, bogus use of a federal criminal statute never intended to get weaponized against political opponents.
Trump 47 DOJ must hold accountable responsible Biden DOJ officials.
Today's decision by the Democrat-controlled DC Circuit Court of Appeals is as predictable as it is wrong.
Members of Congress are immune, both civilly and criminally, for their officials acts.
So are federal judges.
Why wouldn't the President of the United States--any President?
Four DC federal judges did not even establish at a baseline level that the President of the United States cannot be thrown in prison by his successor based upon his official acts.
They ignored the Constitution's separation of powers.
Thus, the Supreme Court must take and decide this case.
This case is much bigger than Trump.
This precedent is very dangerous and highly destructive to the presidency--thus, our Constitution and country.
This means the Trump 47 Justice Department can prosecute Obama--along with his aides like U.S. Circuit Judge David Barron, Obama's legal advisor at the time--for capital murder for their extrajudicial drone-striking of American citizens (including a minor).
This also means the Trump 47 Justice Department can prosecute Biden for his illegal release of dangerous migrants into the United States and the natural and probable crimes they commit.
(So they can ignore their ruling to protect Obama and Biden.)
If the Supreme Court wants the federal judiciary to keep any legitimacy with half of the American people, it must do its job and fix this dangerously wrong ruling.
"The Biden administration’s effort to establish itself as a committed champion of press freedom is facing new doubts because of the Justice Department’s aggressive legal tactics against a conservative provocateur known for his hidden-camera video stings."
"A predawn FBI raid last weekend against Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe and similar raids on some of his associates are prompting alarm from some First Amendment advocates, who contend that prosecutors appear to have run roughshod over Justice Department media policies and a federal law protecting journalists."
ICYMI from @JamesRosenTV in @NYTimes on December 30, 2016:
"Over the past eight years, the [Obama] administration has prosecuted nine cases involving whistle-blowers and leakers, compared with only three by all previous administrations combined."
The Obama Administration "has repeatedly used the Espionage Act, a relic of World War I-era red-baiting, not to prosecute spies but to go after government officials who talked to journalists."
"Under Mr. Obama, the Justice Department and the F.B.I. have spied on reporters by monitoring their phone records, labeled one journalist an unindicted co-conspirator in a criminal case for simply doing reporting and issued subpoenas to other reporters to try to force them to reveal their sources and testify in criminal cases."
