A loudmouth liar who has deceived his followers and insisted on being tried by a jury of his peers has been found guilty as charged.
Bannon was on trial for contempt of Congress for ignoring subpoenas related to the January six Committee and lying about a fiery trial that would embarrass the government. In the end, he and his legal team didn’t put a single witness on the stand—not even Bannon, who apparently punked out like expected.
Stephen Kevin Bannon is an American media executive, political strategist, and former investment banker, who served as the White House's chief strategist in the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump during the first seven months of Trump's reign of terror.
A right-wing blogger and longtime confidant of Donald Trump is now convicted for contempt of Congress following his refusal to provide information to a Bipartisan US House committee probing the January six 2021 Capitol attack.
After being found guilty of two contempt of Congress counts for refusing to comply with a subpoena from the January six Bipartisan House Committee looking into the US Capitol insurrection for testimony and documents relevant to the investigation, he claimed “never backing off one inch” in his support for former President Trump and the Constitution?
Public service is a public trust, and when elected officials or their cronies act unethically or illegally, it undermines our faith in government that they are making decisions in our best interest.
