Pinback
(13,601 posts)The Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution explicitly bans cruel and unusual punishment, Bannons attorney, Harland Dorrinson, declared. We strongly believe that being locked up in the same facility with Mr. Bannon is precisely what the authors of that amendment had in mind.

(22,223 posts)Nearly two years into Biden and I still have a hard time quickly sorting reality from satire. Not as bad as the Trump years where Wapo, NY Times, etc. merged with The Onion.

Thank you most-kindly, indeed (!).

allegorical oracle
(6,481 posts)"During his own summation, M. Evan Corcoran, one of Mr. Bannons lawyers, sought to argue that the subpoena his client had received had been improperly signed by the committee, adding for the jury that Mr. Bannon had not intentionally failed to comply with it. Mr. Corcoran also noted, trying to suggest a whiff of impropriety, that a prosecutor on the case and one of the governments witnesses had belonged to the same book club."
