BREAKING: House Votes to Hold Steve Bannon in Contempt of Congress – Here Are the 9 Republicans Who Voted with Democrats
Gateway Pundit ^ | October 21, 2021 | Cristina Laila

The House of Representatives on Thursday voted to hold former Trump Chief Strategist Steve Bannon in contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena from the January 6 Committee.

President Trump urged his supporters to ignore the subpoenas to appear before the Democrat, and Liz Cheney’s, struggle session.

Earlier this week the January 6 Congressional Committee responded to Bannon’s defiance by voting 9-0 to refer Bannon to the DOJ to face criminal contempt charges.

On Thursday the House voted 229-202 with 9 Republican lawmakers voting with the Democrats in favor of the resolution.

The referral will be sent to the US Attorney’s office in DC which will ultimately decide whether to press charges against Bannon.

Here are the 9 Republicans who voted to hold Bannon in contempt:

Cheney
Fitzpatrick
Gonzalez (OH)
Katko
Kinzinger
Mace
Meijer
Upton
Herrera Beutler

Mace won by less than a point last year which was a great year for Republicans at the House level. Now she will get primaried out along with Rice.

Maybe they can form a law firm and represent antifa and BLM.

Jackass.

It’s the same names all of the time.

None of them will be censured.

None of them will lose their committee assignments.

Most of them will be reelected.

The Republican leadership is complicit. They are weak. The people who vote for these RINOs should be ashamed of themselves.

Less votes than held Eric Holder in criminal contempt - 255 to 67 with only two Republicans voting “no.” 108 Democrats abstained from voting on what they have long argued is a politically motivated stunt. Gosh what happened to poor Eric there?

So whats new with that?These Bastards in Congress are held in contempt by the people every day.

That’s why they’re so angry now.The people are just not listening to their B.S. any longer.

My advice to Steve Bannon is to go to the Circus in D.C. and make those show what they really are. If that’s even possible.

Not at all surprised seeing Cheney at the top of the list......she knows full well this is about Trump not Bannon.....they want to make certain anyone associating and or supporting Trump they’ll be going after.....esepcially in media.

None of those 9 should have a committee chair, appointment to a committee, an office larger than a phonebooth, granted time to speak, nothing...

This isn’t just about loyalty to President Trump. This is a tyrannical Left wing cabal that these idiots feel compelled to enable with their presence and votes.

"Each one must be primaried and defeated in 2022."

Yeah, that's really worked well in getting rid of RINOS over the last 50 years. When you think you've finally gotten rid of one, another two or three are elected. The fact of the matter is, that if they're not a RINO when they're first elected, they eventually become a RINO, if they stay in office long enough. Too many of these individuals who run, are actually RINOS, but pretend to be Conservative to get elected. All these people that President Trump is endorsing, makes me wonder how many of them are phonies, playing a role just to get elected. It's an all too common problem.

In the case of Mace, she’s only been in Congress for 9 months. She needs to go.
