The Jan. 6 panel notched an indictment last week, after the Justice Department charged Steve Bannon with two counts of contempt of Congress over his refusal to comply with a committee subpoena.
In Bannon going to be forced to dry out in jail? The DTs might kill him.
There’s no business like show business. Bannon is performing…but the real goal is establishing Congressional prerogatives.
Can we go ahead and call it a “liverstream?”
If I were the US Attorney I’d be asking for a new judge.
David Schoen, who took center stage in defending former President Trump at his February 2021 impeachment trial in the Senate, has joined Bannon’s defense team.
Isn’t that the attorney who attempted to bore the senate to death during the second impeachment trial?
ETA: nope,that was bruce castor
He’ll get some kind of supervised release. Unless you meant get the DTs before 5pm today.
I was just going to ask if Schoen was the “good” one or the really, really bad one.
Breaking News: "Bannon Surrenders, Cheeseburgers Ordered Up!"
Don’t get my hopes up.
Wow, that’s an insane amount of extra-legal pontification and a radically ill-informed assessment on the merits of the issue. Chill, and maybe hold back your Bad Takes next time.
All appearances to the contrary, Bannon says he gave up alcohol a couple decades ago, and there are no first-hand accounts that dispute it as far as I have ever been able to find.
Posted on another thread. (from WaPo)
Bannon, 67, walked through a group of media photographers outside the FBI field office in downtown Washington. Bannon told the news media, “I don’t want anybody to take their eye off the ball for what we do every day…We’re taking down the Biden regime.”
This is so enjoyable.
Have you looked at his obvious gin blossoms?!
Find me direct evidence of Bannon consuming alcohol in the 21st Century. It doesn’t exist.
Yeah, there’s a good bit of addiction shaming going on here. Bannon is 67 and the damage done.
Yep. Alcohol addiction is in no way a necessary prerequisite for assholery.
A dermatological assessment from five years ago. Basically, he’s old, fat, unhealthy, and has rosacea.
