GOP congressional candidate and vehemently pro-Trump, anti-“illegal immigrant” Fox News frequenter Omar Navarro was arrested and booked on extortion, stalking, making criminal threats and disobeying a 5-year order of protection filed against him by Pelosi challenger DeAnna Lorraine. The San Francisco Sheriff’s Department website lists his charges ranging from misdemeanors to felonies.
Navarro has received endorsements from former Trump National Security Adviser felon Michael Flynn, Trump-pardoned ex-sheriff Joe Arpaio, and Nutter InfoWars’ Alex Jones!
The Republican Pelosi challenger’s campaign manager told the Globe: “With such a long history of threats of violence and extortion against women, he has become quite the professional at sliding himself through the cracks to avoid prosecution and thankfully, the SFPD wasn’t going to let him get away this time … We have actively pleaded with Mr. Navarro and tried everything to get him to stop the threats and harassment that my staff and I have had to endure for months.”
“Before I go to jail, I will take you out,” Navarro allegedly wrote in one message sent shortly before his arrest, she told The News in a phone interview.
