Feds quietly obtain Bannon lawyer's email and phone records -- prompting allegations of 'spying'

By John Wright
Published February 04, 2022

Steve Bannon's lawyers are crying foul after federal prosecutors quietly obtained email and phone records belonging to one of them.

The records may be related to Bannon's claim that he was acting on legal advice when he defied a subpoena from the House Select Committee investigating the Capitol insurrection, according to reports.

Prosecutors reportedly began obtaining the records a week after the Department of Justice indicted Bannon for contempt in November for defying the subpoena.

Hey Bannon, its real simple did you or did you not engage in breaking the law with an insurrection and were you served a subpoena, and were you asked to testify in front of committee on your and your flaming orange hairs boss actions to commit a conspiracy to overthrown a duly elected government ......and if you and your legal team are in a fishing expedition to see if the Biden justice department is doing that for political reasons.....well you and your criminal boss where doing the same thing and doing it everyday on your podcast...and as for the Daily Beast calling it a spy thing.....the DOJ sent a letter on Jan 7....that not quite spying....
