Maybe he wanted To be found guilty of contempt of Congress so that when they subpoena Hunter Biden he will not be able to dodge it…..

Not taking sides but Bannon never gave me the warm and fuzzy patriotic fall on his sword for god and country vibes

In before someone calls the randomly selected jury Deep State.

Bannon's constitutional rights were violated and they will appeal this BS. Pure example of the emerging American Communist takeover. Did Eric Holder or Lois Lerner get tried for the exact offense that Bannon is charged with? Bannon wasn't working for Trump at the time either. Pure political persecution.

I actually agree with part of this...

Eric Holder should have served time for this ( Don't think so on Lerner) . It's important to note that congress has no way to enforce a a subpoena, they depend on the DOJ to prosecute. Holder being the AG, simply never made a decision whether to prosecute or not and ran out the clock. That's just plain wrong. Lerner was a completely different story (she worked for the IRS and apparently wasn't honest in public statements about the Tea Partiers getting audited. The big difference here is that she actually showed up to testify. She didn't answer but a couple of questions IIRC and pleaded the 5th on just about everything. She was held in contempt of congress by the Republican house for envoking a basic right... I notice you didn't mention HER rights being violated... but anyway, same deal ... DOJ didn't move forward.

I also notice that you didn't mention Barr being held in contempt of Congress in 2019. Same deal as Holder, he chose not to make a decision to prosecute himself and let the whole thing die.

Anyway, that brings us to Bannon. I'm not sure how his rights we violated. He got a subpoena to show up before a certain day and submit documents before a certain day. He objected to the process and a court of law denied his objection. I'm not sure what's the problem here. He was a private citizen who is not a lawyer for anyone that saw/heard information that congress is interested in (for whatever reason, good, bad, indifferent). Congress called him up to testify. He could have shown up and pleaded the 5th if he needed to. But you can't not show up.

So he had a trial... in front of a jury... and he was found guilty.

Well Bannon offered to testify in open session only and the J6 committee wanted to have him testify in closed session and then slice/dice it to make Trump look bad, but related to his constitutional rights I will go with what Professor Dershowitz says.

but...but...but he didnt have a fair trial by a jury of his best friends and fellow magas.....not fair!

dershowitz has really been off his mark the last few years...and to think i once thought he was some sort of brilliant lawyer....if everyone questioned and fought every subpoena the way this ahole bannon did, we would have no judicial system ....

 

[hopefultiger13]

What do you mean? Bannon was found guilty of a crime. He's going to do a little jail time. Newsmax predictably dug someone up with a different opinion than the justice system... and he bitched about it. Kind of like all those gamechangers, smoking guns you've reported, I predict this one will go nowhere and Bannon will get his slap on the wrist...

difference between considering the validity of a subpoena and filing motions on every subpoena, failing to appear, etc, to the point of being found in contempt. I doubt that adam schiff, a former legendary prosecutor, will ever be found in contempt of defying a vaild subpoena, as did peckerhead bannon....

So basically Adam Schitt isn't going to answer a subpoena after crying and pouting when Bannon didn't either.

Got it.

no , you didnt get it.. . you obviously do not understand legal procedure nor english. You are either reading too much into what he says or not reading enough into what i said. Whatever, but i aint got time to educate you today, i am too busy reading the football boards and bitching about the loss yesterday...

If Schitt is subpoenaed, he will refuse just like Bannon did. The difference will be THIS time you will praise Schitt, say this is a fishing expedition by the pubs, etc.

Wait.
N.
See.
