1. Force the rancid bum into bankruptcy

if he's not there already.

[SouthernDem4ever]

9. Certainly he's learned the art of grifting as taught to him by his mentor

he probably has the money stashed somewhere.

[Kid Berwyn]

2. Show me a liar and I'll show Thee a thief.

Then there’s getting stiffed by a NAZI.

3. Good!

Bannon is heading for a very bad ending.

[Maraya1969]

4. So even if they can't secure a jail sentence with some of these

traitors at least they are paying financially and that makes me happy. Same with tfg although his fees are paid for by the num-nuts that send him money. It was just reported by the Times that his PAC spent 10 million just last year.

All that money that could have been used to run a campaign but because they are such crooks a lot of it goes directly into our legal system. My question is what would they be doing now if they didn't have PACS?

6. Bannon is about to go on trial for his fake Build the Wall scheme.

Trump can't pardon this time. Bannon is fucked.

[Maraya1969]

5. Just realized that he won't be able to get representation unless he pays

upfront like some are making tfg do.

[mountain grammy]

7. If they haven't learned by now

to get the money up front when dealing with these crooks they're not very smart.

8. MAGA - Making Attorneys Get Attorneys...

11. .......

[Wounded Bear]

18. Stole it from the internet, but it's still true...

[lindysalsagal]

10. Half a mil to avoid a subpoena? Gotta be some smoking guns in what he's hiding at that price.

[geardaddy]

12. ...

Womp womp and hah hah!

[Major Nikon]

13. I'm sure his Asian and Russian benefactors will pay it

There's really no down side to any GQP shitstains as far as lawsuits and fines are concerned. It's just part of doing business for their foreign overlords.

[calimary]

14. They're finding out the hard way.

He’s a lying, cheating SOB. It’s a tough lesson, but they better learn it, and soon.

He’s not gonna pay them a nickel if he can figure out how to get away with it.

[gratuitous]

15. I wonder which partner in the firm said, "Bannon? He's good for it; keep working"

That's not going to be a very pleasant partnership meeting.

[Midnight Writer]

16. Wonder who he will find to defend him in this lawsuit? And I wonder what possible defense there is.

A law firm is suing Steve Bannon, former U.S. President Donald Trump's onetime top strategist, for more than $480,000 in fees for its legal work on high-profile cases.

Law firm Davidoff Hutcher & Citron said in a lawsuit filed Friday in New York state court that Bannon has failed to fully pay for work it performed for him from November 2020 until November 2022. Bannon has been regularly represented by the firm's partner Robert Costello.

Reuters could not immediately confirm whether Costello is still representing Bannon. Bannon and Costello did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The Davidoff firm represented Bannon after he was subpoenaed by the congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, siege on the U.S. Capitol by Trump supporters, and in his criminal contempt trial after he defied the subpoena.

19. His type

Hates America and democracy, they use the useful parts to destroy it from the inside. I don’t know why his attempt to overthrow the Catholic Church in addition to America hasn’t been all over the news. But the mainstream news seems only interested in jerking around what the republicans define as liberals.
