Sign-Holding Protester Epically Trolls Peter Navarro Once Again—And He's About To Snap

The same woman who stood behind the former Trump adviser during a recent press conference was back in action yet again—and this time she brought a whistle.

Former Trump advisor Peter Navarro was trolled by the same sign-holdidng protester who stood behind him during a press conference last week—and this time she brought a whistle.

A jury was seated on Tuesday in Navarro's criminal contempt of Congress trial. The trial, presided over by District Judge Amit Mehta, is expected to proceed swiftly. Navarro faces charges of criminal contempt for failing to comply with congressional subpoenas, similar to former Trump ally Steve Bannon, who was convicted in a similar case and is appealing.


Convictions in these cases could set a precedent for future congressional investigations dealing with uncooperative witnesses and former Presidents' claims of privilege over aides' testimony and documents.

Navarro claimed that the trials against him are "very expensive" and said they are an example of Democrats using "lawfare" to crush their political opponents. The woman—who blew a whistle to interrupt him several times—continued to yell out the word "Traitor."

You can see footage of the moment below.

As Navarro responded to these developments, the woman flashed a sign that read "Prison Boys," a play on "Proud Boys," the neo-fascist paramilitary organization whose members spearheaded the attack on the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021. Their leader, Enrique Tarrio, whose name featured prominently on the sign, was just sentenced to 22 years in prison.

Navarro called for supporters to contribute to his legal fund to fight the charges against him—each of which carries a year in prison and a $100,000 fine—but was interrupted multiple times as he tried to share the URL.

The main heckler, identified as X user @SatireAP who also disrupted Navarro's statements last week—became the target of Navarro's frustrations once again as he called on reporters to "please" broadcast the interruptions on their channels.

Gesturing to the demonstrators, he said:

"I'm trying to speak about serious constitutional issues with you. Clown with a whistle, witch with a broom. Go figure."

Meanwhile, @SatireAP continued to brand him a "traitor," prompting a pro-Navarro demonstrator—this one holding a sign that read "Stop hating each other because you disagree"—to request that she "let the man talk, he has every right to talk."

She declined however, replying:

"No, he's a traitor! Traitor!"

Many could not believe the same woman had shown up to troll Navarro not once but twice—and praised her for it.


Navarro's trials have garnered significant attention due to the broader implications regarding congressional oversight and executive privilege.

Judge Mehta ruled against Navarro's assertion that his conversations with then-President Trump were protected under executive privilege, calling it "pretty weak sauce." Mehta stated that Navarro had not provided specific evidence to support his executive privilege claim, leading to the rejection of this defense.

In addition to the criminal trial, Navarro is facing a civil lawsuit from the Justice Department, alleging violations of the Presidential Records Act for not turning over government records, specifically emails, from his personal account to the National Archives. Navarro has appealed the ruling in that case.

Mike Johnson Just Made A Surreal Admission About George Santos—And Yep, That Tracks

George Santos is out of prison and Mike Johnson is now facing significant criticism after telling Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy that he'd happily welcome the disgraced politician back to Congress.

Santos—who since arriving on the political scene faced allegations of fabricating his background, misusing campaign funds for luxury items and Botox, and leaving a trail of victims behind him as a known fraud and identity thief—received a seven-year sentence for crimes that the U.S. attorney for the eastern district of New York argued “made a mockery” of the electoral process.

JD Vance Just Visited California—And Gavin Newsom Gave Him A Petty Welcome For The Ages

California Governor Gavin Newsom had a hilariously petty way to "welcome" Vice President JD Vance to California—once again using a viral rumor about Vance's love for, ahem, couches to comedic effect.

Vance visited Camp Pendleton over the weekend for the 250th anniversary of the United States Marine Corps and Newsom took the opportunity to mock Vance by hinting at the now-infamous—though untrue—rumor that Vance wrote about having sex with a couch in his memoir, Hillbilly Elegy.

People Call Out The Industries That Only Exist To Service The Very Rich

The only private jet I've been on was the Lisa Marie, Elvis Presley's plane on display at Graceland. I've never been chauffeured around in a limousine, arrived at a party by helicopter, or had a jeweler bring a case full of diamonds to my home for me to select from.

There's a saying about seeing how the other half lives, but it's much closer to the other 1% than it is 50%.

Gavin Newsom Hits Trump Over His Threat To Send National Guard To San Francisco With A Blunt Reality Check

In a Fox News interview, Trump said "I think they want us in San Francisco," contrasting this claim with ongoing ICE operations in Chicago, where citizens have clashed with immigration agents over the last several weeks.
