House Rules Committee Votes on Holding Steve Bannon in Contempt of Congress LIVE

15. I understand

Oddly, the ranking republican Tom Cole made that one blah blah comment but then chose not to question the witnesses today. Kind of stunning IMHO.

This is how the bread gets made. At this point we're proofing the dough. Enforcing Contempt of Congress is not an instantaneous process. After this committee passes the resolution, then the whole House has to vote to pass it. Then it gets sent to the DOJ and they are the ones that enforce the order. Bannon will attempt to appeal or whatever and so it goes.

I wish we could just pound a gavel and send him to jail. He should be in jail.
