Partisan Judge Sentences Steve Bannon to Four Months in Jail for Refusing to Comply With Congressional Subpoena
How many months in jail did Eric Holder get, again, for refusing to comply with Congressional subpeonas? Zero, right?
Disclose.tv
@disclosetv JUST IN - DC judge sentences Steve Bannon to 4 months in prison and $6,500 in fines for contempt of Congress.
They also brought this case to trial and sentencing very quickly, didn't they? You wouldn't want to risk Republicans winning Congress and withdrawing the subpoena. I can only repeat: First order of business in 2024: Pass a law allowing defendants and prosecutors to move to relocate any legal action involving a political actor to a politically neutral jurisdiction. No more Home Court Advantage for leftwing Democrats. The minimum sentence would have been sixty days for Steve Bannon. The lawless criminal organization the DOJ sought six months. The judge decided to split the difference instead of asking, "Say, why is this the first prosecution of a political actor for contempt of Congress? Why was Eric Holder never tried?"
Sean Davis
@seanmdav FBI attorney Kevin Clinesmith fabricated evidence against the president and his campaign in order to get an illegal spy warrant. Despite being convicted of a felony, he didn’t spend a single day in prison, and his law law license was restored. Bannon didn't talk to Congress.
Meanwhile, the disgraced FBI agent Tim Thibault, who claimed the Hunter Biden laptop was "Russian disinformation" to get Joe Biden elected, is refusing to cooperate with GOP members of the House Judiciary Committee. When he refuses a subpoena next year, will he be going to jail, do you think?
Or nah?
Oh yeah? Think the corrupt DOJ believes in equal justice?
Disgraced former FBI agent Timothy Thibault is refusing to cooperate with GOP members of the House Judiciary Committee as part of their planned probe into the FBI's conduct surrounding Hunter Biden, The Post has learned. The stonewall could set up showdown should Republicans retake the House next year. In an Oct. 7 letter from his attorney, Thibault said, "Concerning the request for an interview, because the subject matter pertains to sensitive law enforcement information and/or pending investigations, our client is not in a position to accept this invitation at this juncture." Thibault also said that he would not comply with an earlier letter sent by Republican committee members demanding he preserve documents from his days with the FBI. "Our client is now retired from the Federal Bureau of Investigation ... As such, he no longer possesses an FBI laptop or mobile device, and he no longer has access to the FBI's records and materials," the letter said. Thibault is facing scrutiny from Republicans for his role in allegedly suppressing the FBI's Hunter Biden investigation before the election. "Thibualt can refuse to cooperate now, but can't hide from a Congressional subpoena in the future," said a person close to committee Republicans.
By the way, an Obama-era official is demanding that Durham keep his report on FBI malfeasance secret, and that Merrick Garland refuse to release it, because it could... harm the FBI's reputation. Note he demanded that Mueller make his report public. But that's (D)ifferent, you see.
Post columnist Miranda Devine reported wrote last month that Thibault had been assigned as the agency "point man" to manage Hunter Biden's business partner Tony Bobulinski -- whose revelations about the first son's shady dealings went ignored by the agency. In October 2020, Thibault ordered that a probe into Hunter Biden's alleged "criminal financial and related activity" be closed, an agency whistleblower told Sen. Chuck Grassley in July. FBI Director Christopher Wray said the allegations against Thibault were "deeply troubling." The agent resigned from the FBI in August.
Special counsel John Durham should not have the final say in his investigation seeking out misconduct in the FBI's Russia inquiry, says an Obama-era spokesman for the Justice Department. Matthew Miller, who was director of the Justice Department's public affairs office from 2009 to 2011, argued Attorney General Merrick Garland, or another top official at the agency, should review the final report Durham is reportedly expected to prepare by the end of the year before making a decision on releasing its findings to the public. The challenge to Garland to take a "pause" followed a jury in Alexandria, Virginia, finding Russian national Igor Danchenko not guilty Tuesday on several false statements charges over allegations that the main source of British ex-spy Christopher Steele lied to the FBI about his sourcing for the now-discredited anti-Trump dossier. MSNBC host Alex Wagner asked Miller whether Durham's endeavor is coming to an end. "His cases are over. I think it's clear that he's not going to bring any more charges in this investigation, but one of the requirements for special counsels under the regulations is that they write a confidential report and submit it to the attorney general, and the attorney general then makes a decision whether to release that report to the public," Miller said on Alex Wagner Tonight.(D)ifferent!
Miller made a comparison to special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation and then-Attorney General William Barr's controversial rollout of his report in 2019.
"I think Merrick Garland will be under a lot of pressure from Republicans to release that report, but I have to say, this circumstance is very different from the Mueller investigation, where, obviously, the attorney general, Bill Barr, did release that report," he said. "It's different because in that case, the subject of that investigation could not be charged, and so it was appropriate for the department to make its findings public, so Congress could decide whether to impeach and convict the then-sitting president," Miller added. "That is not the case here, so to release a report in this instance -- given what we know about the way that Durham has behaved, some of his inappropriate public statements during this investigation, the poor judgments he has made in bringing these charges -- to release a report publicly and let him have the final word I think probably unfairly tarnish some people at the FBI that we know he holds ill will to based on some of the things he said in this most recent trial."

Bannon's argument was 100% valid: by their own rules, this is not a valid committee and nobody has to show up to be there for it. Any judge that even questioned this is not worthy of the name and was plainly just biased to hate Bannon and support the invalid committee.

Got to say, I'm sick of hearings from both sides and I'm sick of impeachment circuses that have no chance of succeeding and the argument can be made that impeachments made the targets stronger while not removing them, see Clinton and Trump as analogs.
All I want and what we desperately need is regular order, real legislation, real budgets and the advancement of an agenda broadly supported by GOP voters.
Hearings and impeachments are just noise generators and meth hits for the, WATCH TED CRUZ OWN [Insert Leftist A**Clown.] crowd on Twitter.

MLK went to jail briefly in Birmingham and came out bigger than ever. Bannon will do the same.
That is, if the appeal isn't successful and the courts don't stay his sentence pending appeal. Note that he will have to appeal to the DC Circuit, where he will lose. It will take the Supreme Court taking up his case and ruling that the J6 Committee is unlawful. The Supremes give a lot of deference to Congress to make its own rules. I don't know if they would go so far as to support putting people in jail who don't agree with Congress's rules, though. Cromwell is where that leads.

Let me tell you the story of Right Hand, Left Hand. It's a tale of good and evil. Hate: it was with this hand that Cane iced his brother. Love: these five fingers, they go straight to the soul of man. The right hand: the hand of love. The story of life is this: static. One hand is always fighting the other hand, and the left hand is kicking much ass. I mean, it looks like the right hand, Love, is finished. But hold on, stop the presses, the right hand is coming back. Yeah, he got the left hand on the ropes, now, that's right. Ooh, it's a devastating right and Hate is hurt, he's down. Left-Hand Hate KOed by Love.

He's got room for appeal and definitely ought to. This has Supreme Court written all over it: does someone have to respond to a congressional soebpena issued by a committee that by its own rules is not valid?

I don't really even like Steve Bannon but this is ludicrous and I hope it gets to the Supreme Court and by a majority ruling states clearly that if a committee is improperly formed by congress' stated rules at the time of its formation then it is invalid and has no legal power or ability to hold anyone in contempt.

I think you are right, although they ought to. This isn't about the ability of congress to run its own house, its about the power of congress to punish people when it is ignoring its own ruling its own house.
I know the SCOTUS is very reluctant to do anything about congress (separation of powers etc) but this does not violate the principle and is a matter of liberty.

The judge, being honorable and respectful of the Court System, ruled against all of Steve Bannon's defenses based on previous circuit court rulings. Personally I think those rulings are unconstitutional, but I also think they will get appealed either way to SCOTUS.
The judge did stay execution of the sentence pending appeals.

I have no problem with Bannon. It's not about whether you "like" the man. He knows how the game is played. He played. He lost some, but he also won the big game.
You probably wouldn't have had President Trump without that guy. Or Brad Parscale, another person of highly questionable character.
I'm sick of hearing about how winners are bad because they aren't the kind of guys you'd invite to dinner. It's fucking lame and dickless loser talk.

I agree. The system is completely broken and can neither fix its self or be fixed through the system. I see only three possible outcomes:
1- The citizens of the USA rise up and overthrow the system.
2- A strong man takes over and acts as tyrant, diminishing or even eliminating the system
3- God intervenes with national revival and reformation, leading to change from within.

Just like Bannon was 100% going to be found guilty because the city is a corrupt Dem shit hole, no Dem will ever be held accountable for the same reason.
Hopefully Bannon can stay or if prison and fight this up to the supreme court, as there has to be summe way to show there was bias all around.

So now what it takes to be held in - and punished for - Contempt of Congress: be an unperson. We all knew this already, but now it's confirmed. Obama's AG can tell Congress to fuck off and Biden's FBI chief can wander off whenever he pleases to jet off on the government dime and nobody says a word.
If you're in the club - and most people they haul in front of Congress are - then you can ignore them, shit on them, lie to them and dismiss them with impunity and nothing will happen. If you're not in the club and you try *any* of that, you're going to jail and having your money stolen.
Must. Be. Nice.

And that slimy Dem lawyer, and this Danchenko idiot - they're not FBI. Weren't they (unsuccessfully) prosecuted for lying *to* the FBI? What's this about "FBI misconduct"? Where was that any element in anything Durham did?
Seems like the contemptuous skepticism towards the whole thing has been completely vindicated.
And there wasn't/won't be even a head-fake towards even looking into the massive, massive scandal of systematic political surveillance of Americans using technically highly restricted data-gathering, the 702 "about queries" thing - which involved an FBI-contracted operation *located in the Dem law firm* involved in much of this other abuse (if I have this all straight)? Amazing.

No GOP congress has used this power in living memory, but it is the whole point of having congress.

I think it's clear that he's not going to bring any more charges in this investigation, but one of the requirements for special counsels under the regulations is that they write a confidential report and submit it to the attorney general, and the attorney general then makes a decision whether to release that report to the public," Miller said on Alex Wagner Tonight. ...
"I think Merrick Garland will be under a lot of pressure from Republicans to release that report, but I have to say, this circumstance is very different from the Mueller investigation, where, obviously, the attorney general, Bill Barr, did release that report," he said.

What a pointless misdirect. Release the report or don't. Redact it to hell or don't. Whatever. It means nothing. He knows it and so does everyone else. Releasing or not releasing the report, the honesty or dishonesty of the report, the competence or incompetence of the investigation, etc. can have meaning only where there is generally-applicable law. We don't have that, and so this is a meaningless sideshow, an irrelevant triviality.

Screw that, at least they still control the budget. Every witness that refuses to cooperate should be a a 10% reduction in funding to that agency.

Partisan Judge Sentences Steve Bannon to Four Months in Jail for Refusing to Comply With Congressional Subpoena -Ace
Lol...DU is melting down that the judge is a Republican plant!
"Others must be deterred," Judge Nichols? Then mete out a sentence and a fine that's going to get folks' attention. It's not like Bannon was attempting to stonewall an investigation into milk price-fixing or baby formula shortage. This is an investigation into an attempt to violently overthrow the government of the United States.
Another bought and paid for judge America's clown college of justice
A slap on the wrist, and now he's all over the TeeVee spewing his bullshit for the trumpzombies to lick up.
And the judge???? JHFC!
“I conclude that Mr. Bannon appears to be of perhaps some very small risk of recidivism,” the judge said. That guy led an attempt to overthrow the government! Wait until the next insurrection... about 5 days after the election. That fucker will be mobilizing the Proud Girls and the Oaf Kreepers.

They will do no such thing. They will make some noise and hold some hearings. They will grandstand and make some fiery speeches that say all the right things. They will, surprisingly, prove nothing and send a bunch of recommendations to the Executive. The Executive will pretend to listen. There will be no reform and no punishment. The next CR will pass after a WWF-style fake "battle" and everyone gets everything they want, except the American people.
The "red wave" next month (if it happens) will probably result in some truly sensational soundbites and truly grandiose, excellent promises. By March, it will be clear that the GOP will keep doing what it does best: making a lot of noise at opportune moments, collecting a bunch of money, and accomplishing nothing.

Not that I know anything about this, but this is how I would approach the problem.
1. Avoid impeachment hearing on President and focus on hearings on his cabinet appointees and policies.
2. If cabinet members refuse to testify or blow off questions to "get to the airport", hold them in contempt.
3. When the AG slow walks or declines to prosecute, impeach him. Create a conflict of interest requiring a special prosecutor. Have fun.
4. When the rats start squealing on each other and on the Big Guy, then start a "national conversation" on whether Biden should be impeached and dare him to veto legislation. Set the stage for 2024. Say unlike the dems, we won't put the nation through an impeachment circus. Just vote him and his minions out.

Joe Mannix you seem to lack confidence that elections - even "dramatic" ones - may lead to any meaningful results. Well, at least those involving the usual suspects (there seemed to be some actual changes under that uncouth Trump fellow, but they were all immediately erased).
All the excitement over the sports-model/my team! that bad other team! could be described as a large part of the problem, if one were being invidious and difficult. And serious.

Like Joe Mannix said: require it. Any criminal case involving the federal government is automatically tried in a random state outside the DC area. No courts within, say, 50 miles of DC can hear cases involving the area.

150 Make sure that the Congressional hearing is held in someplace like Wichita, so when Democrats perjure themselves or refuse to show up, they get tried before a Kansas jury.
A DC-area jury will never convict a Democrat, and will never acquit a Republican.

Looks and Appearance are two different things. Bannon's not a bad looking guy structurally, but he schlubs it up for whatever sartorial reason, so that it doesn't matter how he looks - his appearance is absurd and incongruous.
Like Hillary and her whole "i'm too busy to wash my filthy hair and throw on a little foundation" schtick that every other leftist female politician now emulates... You're not some noble, harried paladin unconcerned with appearance because you're Just So Busy... you're just shamming it.
You're public figures, FFS. Now go upstairs and wash your ass.

Take a candy bar, break into 2/3 and 1/3 sizes, then hand the pieces to two kids. Then wait for the cries of Not Fair. And like I said, even some of the cafe videos clearly show that dogs understand unfairness.
The federal gubmint may understand it too, but they DGAF if it advances their goals. I hope for the Reckoning. It's overdue.

just one example: it's in the power of state governors to ignore the CDC "recommendation" that little children, who are not even in danger from the coof, get the clot shot. Also: more GOP governors who rule constitutionally amplify the anti-Left zeitgeist.

By March, it will be clear that the GOP will keep doing what it does best: making a lot of noise at opportune moments, collecting a bunch of money, and accomplishing nothing.

To cause change at the federal level, the Congress will need to find some balls and start attacking structures that are now pushing 100 years old. They won't do it. They could mandate a return to normal budgetary order, starts slashing funding for misbehaving agencies and shut down the government if it gets vetoed, start passing legislation to amend and restrict (or even repeal) the various enabling acts that created these agencies and gave them essentially unlimited autonomy, etc.
They will do none of it. It appears that all of them are either being enriched by and on Team Deep State or they are terrified of malicious prosecution and personal destruction if they try to change anything.

If you win 20 in the show, you can let the fungus grow back and the press'll think you're colorful. Until you win 20 in the show, however, it means you are a slob."
Hitchens proved his vast intellect and education so much that he could get away with being a slob.

If you win 20 in the show, you can let the fungus grow back and the press'll think you're colorful. Until you win 20 in the show, however, it means you are a slob."
Hitchens proved his vast intellect and education so much that he could get away with being a slob.

I'm very late to the game, but this is from JJ's thread, and in it they talk about how un-injected people are looking for blood donations from other un-injected donors, and those records don't exist:
"The decision as to whether or not women will date vaccinated men is now on the table."
Unvaccinated Single Women Say 'No' To Vaccinated Single Men
---
There's a billion dollar market waiting for anyone who knows how to coordinate blood donations between purebloods.

Congress has the power of the purse. If they want to pass a law, and Biden vetos it, they are able to pass no budget, a budget for only some parts of the government, or a budget that Biden does not approve of until he agree to pass the law.

Tulsi has endorsed Tudor Dixon and will be coming to Michigan to campaign for her.
Posted by: Jen the original at October 21, 2022 11:18 AM
What exactly does Tulsi Gabbard's support bring to either Kari Lake in AZ or Tudor Dixon in MI? She is a known left-wing failed Democrat candidate for President and known WEF Young Leader.
She is either (1) working to sabotage their candidacies by associating them with a Democrat WEF stooge and cooling conservative support for Lake and Dixon or (2) she is announcing her defection from the WEF and Democrats and thinks some bipartisan grrrlpower will attract more Democrat women to vote for the Republican female candidates. My hope is this is the latter, but my cynicism of politicians tells me this is the former.
That said, it could be option (3), a Democrat WEF stooge cozying up to two female eventual leaders to have an in with them to push WEF influence with them in the future. Anyone associated with the WEF should never be trusted and Lake and Dixon would be wise to tell Gabbard to kindly f-off.

Very doubtful most of these people even understand, much less agree, with a common sense approach that you outlined. This observation based on direct experience.
And in any case, we're not even talking about a fundamental change in federal governance.
The GOP is a party that, incredibly, just rolled over for outrageous and even illegal conduct aimed at crippling a president of their own party, and the most effective one in a generation at that. That is, the GOP wouldn't even do the mindless partisan thing that is the least valuable part of the whole partisan set-up.

2. Trump should pardon all.
3. GOP should issue referrals when they control Congress. They will be ignored, but you have to at least issue the referral.
4. Trump should then prosecute.
5. For any "crimes" committed within DC, charges should be brought in the State of accused. Texas residents should be charged in Texas.

In response the city requested a hearing on it, and the owner of the garbage service that operated in Monmouth and a couple of local cities showed up to testify about wine and beer bottles in the trash, and I was told he was "looking like he had just come off the back of one his trucks on collection day"

220 Guys, the Judge that sentenced Bannon was appointed by Trump. This may be some inside Kung Fu move that Bannon wanted. Let's wait and see where it goes.

If this is some multi-dimensional chess thing, it will be the first time that was ever true.
-----------------
It got me wondering. If the DC Court assigned Bannon's case to Nichols then it was meant as an invitation to not sentence him so as to imply that Trumpers were no different than Obamites and Clintonistas. But Nichols did sentence him; thus making it a legal and moral standard within the court. Maybe they are playing both politics and setting a moral standard. Don't know, but the setup was to allow Bannon off the hook. By sentencing him all of Deep State has to say he did the right thing. They may be stepping into a hole they really don't want to cuz it would apply to them.

Bannon was outspoken -- that's it, that's his "crime."
His crime was working for Trump and helping him get elected. EVERYONE who supported, worked for, or helped Trump is being systematically targeted for destruction, to warn others what will happen if they try something like that in the future.
True, but he's also canny enough to know that this is a very, very public making of his bones. Even if Trump has nothing more to do with him, he's a factor in conservative politics going forward. Everyone respects a martyr.

If I can't wear a maga hat in public without fear of reprisal then I don't give a hoot if Steve is presentable in the eyes of the elite. At least he doesn't tweet mean things, right.

Tulsi was a well known Democrat. And she was mostly known for her relative sanity amongst Democrats, her hotness (for a politician), and for her takedown of racist Kamalalala Harris.
These are all positive qualities to non-insane democrats, so a Tulsi endorsement is a good thing.

Of all the shit a functioning pluralistic democratic republic can endure, a two-tiered, two-track justice system isn't one of them.
Either we have justice or we have star chambers and kangaroo courts. We currently have the latter.
Prepare accordingly.

And that hurts your case. I mean people dress up for special occasions and to do some things for a reason. You don't show up to your wedding in stained sweats and the ripped, faded tee shirt you've been wearing for 16 years straight. You don't show up to interview for a high level office job in stained jeans and a hoodie. You don't go on your first date wearing your favorite most comfortable pajamas with the hole in the toes. You shave and comb your hair.
Dressing appropriate for the work and setting is a basic adult skill. You're going to work on the car? Don't wear a ball gown. You're going to wash dishes? Don't wear a tux. This stuff used to be well known and understood.

283 The Waukesha parade driver trial is a shitshow today. Brooks called his baby mama to the stand, and he is fucking up his attempt to impeach her credibility to the extent that he and Judge Monica got into a bickering match and they had to recess for a break.

Exactly. You only have to look at what they did to the "severely conservative" Bushes (and they'd do it to Jeb or Liz-ard Cheney were they the nominee), McCain, and Romney when they ran.

The scary part is the the German people as a whole were a refined and sophisticated culture and look what depths they fell to back in the '30's and '40's. Compared to them we are a trash culture. Nekulturny is what I think the Russians call it and I happen to agree with them.
And if that makes me a snob, then too fucking bad. The time for politeness is long gone.
