Steve Bannon’s Criminal Contempt

Despite Trump's threats, Nine House Republicans voted with Democrats to hold Steve Bannon in criminal contempt for defying a subpoena to testify.

Trump and his allies are attempting to hide behind executive privilege to delay the investigation into the attack on the Capitol and the attempt to overturn the 2020 election. January 6 Committee Vice-Chair Liz Cheney said prior to the House vote, “Mr. Bannon's and Mr. Trump's privilege arguments do appear to reveal one thing, however: they suggest that President Trump was personally involved in the planning and execution of January 6th.”
