Steve Bannon, a former aide to President Trump, is being charged with contempt of Congress for refusing to obey a subpoena from the House January 6th committee for documents and testimony. Bannon is insisting that he could not comply, saying a lawyer for the former president directed him not to, citing executive privilege. However, the judge tossed out that defense, saying it’s not clear that Trump’s lawyer ever told him that.

And AOC was arrested 🤔 😂!
Gotta love MSM and it’s minions.
Steve Bannon have your lawyer serve the judge in court motion for judge to be removed from case Rights violation U.S. Code 18-242.
Judge's background on cases suggests he is corrupt by Chinese Tic Toc and Google.
He’s shown nothing but disrespect to Congress and Judges. He’ll do nothing but continue to strategize if he is not held ACCOUNTABLE.
Lock him up in State Penitentiary. No parole / No visitation. All need to know that one is ACCOUNTABLE for their actions.
How can he be on Trial when he agreed a week ago to testify? This suddenly in not a trial for contempt. C'mon, NBC…don't be such full-frontal communists who Lie by Ommission..
Charged… let's move to convicted quickly and put him in jail where he and his foul mouth belong.
And #45 next, please.
On thumbnail trump is telling bannon your fkn breath stinks, bannon replies your full of hamburder mofo
If this guy had his way he would have all of Europe as one big far right state

because we need more criminals in our Government. we need daily lies. we need poor families to remain in poverty. we want DOJ Garland to go down in history as the person who destroyed American democracy!
….
Two mega Losers. They look like they are ready to kiss.
Sham sh*t show- the election was rigged in 2020
He should spend time in jail. He had prior knowledge that trump was going to attack America with a hostile group of traitors and said so publicly on his podcast and didn’t take ANY actions to stop 🛑 it from happening because he was too busy bragging about the situation. He’s culpable as an accessory to the manslaughter of the slain capital police officers.
The Democratic Party Witch Hunt against President Trump is not going to amount to anything.
bannon is now the guy who knows what Cohen doesn’t, as a young man bannon chose learning, now, it is time for him to teach the american public how deep you (ie. bannon) is within the deep state 🇺🇸
Democrats need to get out of our America!
Troy McClure from the Simpsons 😂🤣 “I saw an episode of Matlock, in a bar once. The sound was down, but I got the gist of it”
JAIL 'STUPID' 2022.
Americans say Jan 6 is the 'Big Lie'. The World says Jan 6 is 'Gullible Americans'.
'Stupid' has already FUNDRAISED off his DEAD WIFE Ivana.
Get a Load of this picture a Mongoose and a Cobra……
It's pronounce Virginia not China…..
What a Country from bad to insanity……
fine him and freeze his passport
Yaaaaaaawn ……. Fake news !
Lock him up ! LOCK HIM UP !! LOCK HIM UP !!!
COOL CELL MATES FOR EVER GET COZY BOYS!!! 🤬😡😎
#banbannon
Several months in jail wouldn’t affect a roach. Why would anyone believe Bannon would rat on Trump? LOL.
BuhBy Bannon!
Since when does A FRIGGIN criminal get to go on the airwaves and attack witnesses and political people who are involved in investigations? He can incite something with the way he is acting and this is not free speech this is misinformation and lies.
Steve KuKlux Klannon needs to be on trial for treason.
I keep hearing legal experts say 'the statute' is not often used adding, it's been more than a half-century (many say 100 years) for anyone to serve time in jail. It's never been used in 100 years BECAUSE IT'S NEVER BEEN NEEDED! This is the first attempt at overthrowing the government by a president and his Lemmings e.g. Steve Bannon, Mike Flynn, LOONEY GIULIANI etc. So now the sentence IS needed and should be applied to its fullest commensurate extent.
Ummm where’s the BOOM ? Says Steve Bannon.
The Circus is OVER
He’s disrespectful to the judicial system, judges,and congress.
He should have been cuffed and given an orange jump suit, then taken directly to the State Penitentiary.
He should have been put in a wagon and taken immediately to central bookings and cuffed to other inmates. NO phones, NO visitors, NO private bathrooms, and NO special gifts.
Put him in a cell with a Big Man named Black.
Now they need to release the Epstein/Maxwell list of clients, so they can convict Trump for being on the list. They'll be sure to lock him up once that list is revealed.
Too bad he won't get real prison time…but there's more charges to come!
We need trump back
January 6 committee is not the supreme court and have no powers to fine Steve Bannon in content or issued Steve Bannon to jail all is illegal by our laws. There must be a jury trial in sn a state court or U.s.Suprrme court under the laws of our land . just look back at the war trials of WWII they rtovided a jury trial ? When are the people in Congress going to be removed or arrested for living along with Biden to be arrested for destroying our economy?
Contempt of Congress is a crime? Could be 200 million Americans guilty of it right now, lol.
What a double standard. I am glad all you Trump haters, are so excited about Steve Bannon. Wow, contempt of congress. I remember for all the hypocrites a woman named Hillary Clinton who destroyed evidence, bleached the hard drives then had them destroyed with hammers after congress requested the evidence. No, no double standard here. I believe she and the DNC also spied on a sitting president and FISA courts were lied to about the Steele Dosier which was bought and paid for by your party. I remember people who were left to die in Benghazi by the witch who ignored requests for more security. You people and the media are such hypocrites it's pathetic to say the least. Not to mention YOUR president is the worst to have ever stolen a presidential election and the guy called Biden and every agency absolutely is corrupt and is destroying the country. But we are in so much better shape in every aspect now right under Biden. Talk about stupid, idiots democrats truly are the disease of this nation.
This panel is such a pathetic group of people. Judge, Jury, Executioner. This type of thing happens in communist dictator countries. But now it has happened in America. Absolute tyranny and unconstitutional tyrant partisan politics here. What a disgrace and embarrassment the world is witnessing. The world laughing at the Democrats and the pathetic hypocrisy they exemplify every day. This panel was a Saturday Night Live skit, which was not even funny as usual. I am sure the ratings were so low the networks lost millions even carrying the clown show. Pretty sad.
Hand picked committee to push Democrat narrative and distract America from what a mess Democrats are making of our country and the world. They hired a TV producer and a storyteller to create this propaganda show on TV about Jan 6.that should tell you everything you need to know about it and they won't let anyone give opposing views in public? Lol what a joke…..
MSM approval rating is at 20%.fake news at its best selling propaganda for Democrats everyone in America knows this is
WE STAND WITH YOU STEVE BANNON!!! Stay strong.
Re: Trial S Bannon's GOP War Room speech. (Pre riot) 'If Trump loses the election, he's going to declare victory anyway' This is exactly what happened. Trump and Bannon are not victims. There is no deep state. They are not patriots. The Capital Police along with their surviving family members know exactly who S Bannon and D Trump are.
With all the problems the United States is having right now, is the most pressing one really an unarmed insurrection led by some guy in a buffalo helmet?
I have total contempt for Congress. Charge me. Lock me up.
STEVE, why after Hillary got a Subpoena to turn over her e-mails, she then destroyed e-mails and did not comply with subpoena.
THAT POS WAS NOT CHARGED
