Trump ally Steve Bannon could be facing jail time over criminal contempt charges for defying January 6 committee subpoenas. Former acting U.S. solicitor general Neal Katyal says, unlike past criminal contempt cases, this one goes to the heart of democracy and the DOJ has to enforce the charges if Congress votes in favor of them.

(9,998 posts)I always get optimistic when I hear these guys say how horrible something was, and that so and so will be in deep trouble.
The fact he could be or should be facing jail team means little to me. Seeing him actually taken away and put in jail is what will matter. Everything else is just the whims of a paid commentator who no longer works in the government.

(6,137 posts)Words are worthless, and theses type threatening talk makes a mockery of subpoena. Simply keep silent until your arrest somebody. It makes all of us dems look weak and prone to be made fun of. Just do something or shut the hell up.
