A Major Win for Trump Allies — Political Lawfare Hits a Wall
A federal judge has dismissed the Biden administration’s lawsuit against former Trump White House trade advisor Peter Navarro, ending a years-long legal battle over alleged misuse of a private email account.
The lawsuit, filed in 2022 by President Joe Biden’s Justice Department, accused Navarro of using a non-government ProtonMail account for official business while serving in the Trump administration. Prosecutors claimed this violated the Presidential Records Act.
But now, under President Trump’s renewed leadership, the Justice Department itself has asked for the case to be thrown out — and the court agreed. In a one-page filing, both sides agreed to walk away, with each paying their own legal fees. No explanation was given.
Targeted for Political Reasons?
Navarro, who currently serves as a senior advisor on trade and manufacturing, says the accusations were politically motivated from the start. Many conservatives agree — viewing the case as another example of the Biden DOJ weaponizing the justice system against Trump allies.
This is the same Justice Department that pursued Navarro for refusing to comply with the Democrat-led January 6 Committee. He cited executive privilege — a right recognized for senior presidential advisors — but was still convicted and sentenced to four months in prison.
He served that sentence and was released this week.
Trump Administration Re-Examining Navarro’s Conviction
Now, the Trump-led Justice Department is reportedly considering a full review — and possible reversal — of Navarro’s conviction. According to The Washington Post, the administration is actively re-evaluating politically charged prosecutions from the Biden years.
This is part of a growing effort to expose and reverse abuses of power under the Biden regime, especially against conservatives and Trump loyalists.
Navarro Returns to the Spotlight at Republican Convention
Just hours after being released from a Miami prison, Navarro took the stage at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee to a hero’s welcome.
Speaking to a packed conservative audience, Navarro didn’t hold back.
“If they can come for me, if they can come for Donald Trump — they will come for you.”
That message is resonating across America, especially with conservative voters concerned about rising government overreach, political double standards, and the erosion of constitutional rights.
