Steve Bannon Wants to Turn His Trial Into a Search of the Biden White House

[Zorro]

It’s the next phase in the Passion of Steve Bannon.

The one-time political adviser to then-President Donald Trump is facing criminal charges for refusing to help the congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection. And he’s trying to use the case against him as a crusade to potentially expose whether the Biden administration’s White House or politically appointed leaders at the Justice Department were involved in the decision to go after him.

On Monday night, Bannon’s legal team and federal prosecutors filed a joint status report in his case that details the road ahead.

In the run-up to a trial sometime next year, Bannon’s lawyers plan to seek evidence from the White House and Justice Department that includes “documents reflecting the decision to charge Mr. Bannon,” according to the court filing.

The latest filing shows that federal prosecutors want to speed that up as much as possible, aiming to put Bannon on trial as early as April. That’s just six months from his Nov. 12 indictment, which would make the case a lightning-fast prosecution. Although the DOJ did not say so in its filing Monday night, the legislators who kickstarted this process have made clear they want to make an example out of Bannon to show that witnesses will be punished for defying congressional subpoenas.

1. Why does the DOJ move so slowly?

Democracy is dying and the DOJ is protecting the disease not the patient.

3. Sometimes I wonder if they are not swamped with 1/6 stuff, and also didn't Trump fill a lot

positions at the DOJ? It is probably hard to know who is who now.

2. The GOP has turned this country into a three ring circus.

5. can't see the forest because of the trees

Bannon's not thinking of the people who are at his trial, he's just trying to set precedence. If he is successful then all the future witnesses are now vulnerable to future harassment. He knows that all his hateful little hitlerets will try to intimidate future witnesses from testifying if the witnesses know they will be found out. Bannon is a low life who know he and his cohorts are all guilty of treason. They're not loyal to the USA they are loyal to ONLY MONEY and who ever is giving them money...
