During the COVID-19 pandemic, Navarro was instrumental in turning the White House response into a factional brawl, publicly attacking scientists and health officials, promoting disproven treatments, and pushing a confrontational approach to medical-supply policy that demonstrably worsened shortages and confusion. He is a walking demonstration of how ideological certainty can survive repeated collisions with reality.

His economic arguments routinely substitute sweeping claims for credible evidence, and his tariff policies impose substantial costs on American consumers and businesses. He demonstrated his contempt for institutional accountability by refusing a Congressional subpoena and being convicted of contempt of Congress. You and your fearless truth teller are only about political loyalty and personal gain.

He won nothing but the chance for continual self-abasement.

Peter Navarro turned the COVID response into a mess of conflicting messages, political interference, and dubious medical claims. He promoted hydroxychloroquine obsessively despite weak evidence at first (then clear harm), attacked public-health officials, and publicly minimized a virus he had privately warned could kill millions (while now demonizing Fauci for both minimizing concerns and for overstating concerns). Then, rather than confront the administration’s own failures in preparation, testing, procurement, and messaging, he made a career out of blaming Fauci, the CDC, China, and anyone else within reach. His July 2020 attack on Fauci was so misleading that USA Today later acknowledged it failed its fact-checking standards. Navarro’s managed the mishanding of the crisis, then tried to appoint himself its chief prosecutor, and now continues to profit monetarily, with your help.

I couldn't make it past his ridiculous two by two matrix. If only they had listened to him and stopped flights from China a week or two earlier, there would have been no pandemic. But because they didn't (and Tony Fauci), the world was ruined.

May Fauci be convicted...and rot in prison as Peter Navarro has stated in the title of his book.

The travel ban should have been #1 on the list in order to stop the spread of the CV-19 problem created at Wuhan's Infectious disease creating- lab. I don't believe all the PCR swabs from China worked very well with all their false-positives; or the masks, which worked in reverse causing problems in the respiratory system. The ventilators were a disaster...most who were put on them died. President Trump recommended HCQ, which was effective, but the Medical Industry was against it, because they wanted to promote their expensive patented and deadly remdesivir.. A strong immune system is the best defense against any disease, but the Medical industry doesn't promote it.

Consider that the PCR "tests" likely delivered some toxin...

The Medical Cartel is in freefall for all the right reasons.

Emergencies, Surgical procedures, some infections

That is all...

You are so on target, Barbara -- and . . . . I believe that Remdesevir is a Chinese brew which slows the kidneys and therefore, cannot drain the lungs which Covid attacks!!

The bloodstream was designed to carry nutrients from natural wholesome food, which strengthens and nourishes the Immune System...Drugs of any kind do not belong in. the bloodstream...They are toxic...They do not Nourish...They break down the Immune System and the organs, glands and cells. The "Experts" have really gone all out to lower the population..

Many hospital nurses have come forward saying there was no Covid crisis

of seriously ill people. The entire Scamdemic was a fabrication as "virus" do

not exist. No question there were ill people with respiratory distress, a symptom

cause by a thousand toxins... The Medical Cartel is Virus/Vax central.

In any case Fauci was doing the bidding of an enemy far more powerful and dangerous

than his sorry self.

SO PROUD of this Patriot, Mr. Peter. Truly remarkable that he served 4 months in Fed prison, for Misdemeanor! And, the other Felons' are FREE! I love America but it's been converted into a Banana Republic....

Felon Navarro is lead Banana-Maker.

Amazing how people who question authority in America are 'evil'. Science IS QUESTIONING' the data, prior events & outcomes. THAT'S WHAT HE DID...

I'm no Faucie defender. I agree with what Navarro had proposed on China travel.

Mr. Navarro should have kept their visitors out but never should have tried to block much of the goods they were sending up. Trump's tarriffs are a complete disaster.

Our nation suffers from a lack of truthtellers in elected office and their advisors.

Unless and until we develop long term strategy, some which require shared sacrifice, we will continue to see a decline in our standard of living.

This too applies to the captured agency system which gave us Fauci. Self dealing and ego driven decision makers will on day kill us all. That's the "virus" we need to defeat.

Totally inaccurate. The tariffs as evidenced by Pres. McKinley are the best way

to create prosperity. So good that the tax system will likely be eradicated.

If you think there is no "strategy" thou needs reality therapy.

annapolis73's avatar

How'd that work out? Rather than securing permanent prosperity, the high-tariff era was followed by the Panic of 1893, a deep four-year depression.

Trump will be handing the same time bomb to the next administration, if he is lucky. I'm betting on a disaster even before he is gone.

Truth Seeker's avatar

it most definitely is working out

It is short sighted but worse to "bet" on an unfavorable outcome

It is also simple minded to second guess brilliance

It is forward thinking, rational, and telling to see the way forward

and the REALIZE the forces being dismantled

I have been saying that China will do anything to gain market in USA for 30+ years. Cut rate prices for cut rate goods. Cheapened by reducing material and labor costs then selling at cost or just above to takeover market.

I know for a fact that China sent “tourists” to photograph every supply chain item in every industry in America. From low tech up, nothing was too insignificant if it could be manufactured and manipulated into the market.

Navarro is 100% correct and recognized the danger decades back. Fauci’s diabolical gain of function was his own genie that turned on him while he lied screaming it wasn’t him but a wet market bat. We all know better now while Fauci received a brain dead pardon and takes the 5th.

Lastly, it looks like the paid operatives and foreign enemies are following Peter’s posts because they instantly pile on attempting to discredit his factual record like the Wizard of Oz… “Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain” but we do. We lost a million Americans, small businesses went bust, fraudsters flourished, elections were manipulated, trillions were lost, children missed school and families greatly harmed. What more does our country need to wake up?

Him pleading the 5th 106 times is not einning, it's been 6 fuckin years, he's been to court, and nothing happened

Thank you for this! I had no idea what Peter story was. What a man! I pray we succeed and there is accountability. If not...I am afraid we are doomed and our freedoms we revel in now will be in the hands of overlords like history has taught us. There will be war and many will die. We are on the edge of a knife right now and most people 80% or more do not understand. God help us.

We certainly can count on the ganging up of the black pillers in these comments. Tells us that Navarro is doing a lot right.
