Legal Experts think Steve Bannon Is Trying To "Expose" The January 6th Committee - Ring of Fire



Steve Bannon's lawyers have requested information from the courts about who the January 6th Select Committee has interviewed. This request came as part of the criminal contempt charges that Bannon is facing. While this information isn't relevant at all to Bannon's case, it has gained support from major media outlets like CNN who want to know who has talked. But legal experts fear this is Bannon's way of trying to "blow up" the committee by exposing what's happening behind the scenes. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

When she was on with Rachel Maddow, Rep. Zoe Lofgren said they've already interviewed more than 250 people around the country, so they weren't necessarily called before the committee. But last week Liz Cheney said they're planning on having "multiple weeks of public hearings" next year."
