Bannon seems upset.

Bannon: This is going to be the misdemeanor from hell for Merrick Garland, Nancy Pelosi, and Joe Biden. Joe Biden ordered Garland to prosecute me… Nancy Pelosi has taken on Donald Trump and Steve Bannon, she should ask Hillary Clinton how that turned out
Hillary


Hill did just fine. Honey, you ain't no Hillary.

offense...do not address any fact or underlying charge...act aggrieved and say it loud. They know this style works in the media wars, and they (R's) are all using the same tactics. We need to learn, call them out and counter.

with planning the insurection, with lying their asses off with their "stop the steal" bullshit. They've been "playing defense" with their baseless court cases attempting to overthrow the 2020 election, and inciting their racist, white supremacist cult to endless violence and threats to anyone who dares to stick up for our democratically held elections. They've been "playing defense" changing how votes are certified in every red state, and installing "yes men" who'll throw out certified vote totals and install pre-selected electors who'll substitute fascist electoral votes for their candidates.

Yeah, they've been "playing defense".

Fuck off, Bannon, you sorry, shabby, scurvy, scabby, sociopathic, shit sack!

Your time is nearly at an end. You picked the wrong horse, motherfucker. Your Orange Pig is going down with you, along with all of your fascist buddies. You've fucked around too long, and you've pissed off too many good people. No mercy. No quarter. No sympathy. Just a good old fashioned legal ass whipping. For now.

That whole pocket veto thing they talked about when trump was handing out pardons and people said he might pardon himself. They made it sound like he could write a blanket pardon and save it for later. I can’t see how that would be valid but I don’t know how that all works. What if he wrote one (another one) for Bannon or whoever and they pull it out of their pocket at the trial or whenever. Just a thought but these days lots of things happened that I’d never have believed.

Can you imagine how much better she would have handled COVID?
I think the world would have followed her lead, and we would have beat it down early on.

Trump and all his money/power focused freaks need to be destroyed.

“We’re going on the offense”…. “Standby”…. It smacks of TFG telling the proud boys to standby…. What an ass. I hope he goes to jail.

trying to persuade someone to do something, or buy something, or give something up, is to instill fear of a consequence. It doesn't need to be true. It just needs to be announced. Bannon's mistake is that he thinks we don't know this. This is basic to human commerce.

So, is he in jail now? Is he going to get a bail hearing, or is he in until he agrees to meet with the committee? I think they should slam him with the consequences of disobeying the subpoena. He's going to lie to them, anyway. They are probably after the documents.

Remember, this vile creature was sitting on the NSC for Trump. He and his buddy said people should be hung--that's why I want to see him in jail. I don't really care how he gets there, as long as we live up to our Democratic ideals and give him his day in court. Oh, look, here it comes...
