Gateway Pundit ^

Posted on 10/17/2022 6:34:01 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

The Department of Justice is recommending that former Trump advisor and War Room host Steve Bannon be sentenced to six months in prison and a $200,000 fine for defying the January 6 Committee.

Bannon was convicted of contempt of Congress in July for refusing to comply with a subpoena from the committee.

(snip)

Anti-Trump neocon Liz Cheney and Democrat Rep. Bennie G. Thompson, chairs of the committee, had celebrated Bannon’s conviction in a joint statement after he was found guilty.

I wonder who else they intend to round up prior to November 8?

Why do I suspect, if November 8 goes the way trends are suggesting (red wave), there are going to be shenanigans around seating members of the new Congress?

There’s a surprise. The DOJ has been politically weaponized like the IRS was under Obama. Completely unacceptable.

It’s not a legit committee!

The Supreme Court will need to decide.

They will definitely try that, governors denying or withholding credentials, etc.

I figured they would try to get 2-4 years.

Will the Supreme Court state the following: Congress makes its own rules or something like this is a Legislative branch issue?

Well the new congress needs to subpoena Pelosi and all the leftists in congress & wh. Then prosecute all that defy them (once we get the 2024 Presidency back).

Meanwhile thugs are allowed to terrorize citizens in our major cities and they are released with no bail time and time again.

Truly a very dark period in our history.

Your apprehension is well founded based on the rising weaponization of the government by the leftists.

People normally do a third of their time, or two mos in his case. I’d be tempted to do the 60 days and save on lawyer fees that would be spent on appeal.

This is correct. Not only are congressional committees normally partisan in favor of the party in power, this committee was not properly formed per their own rules and procedures.

The DOJ will throw Bannon in the most dangerous prison to increase the likelihood he gets murdered in prison.

Obviously, 74,000,000 Americans are by extension guilty. DOJ recognizes the logistical problem of jailing 74,000,000, therefore DOJ recommends the 74,000,000 be put on home detention, must stay inside their homes for one whole day.

That day will be November 8, 2022.

How many people have to have “contempt of congress” before the entire J-6 committee goes to jail?
