Very interesting.
Much more at the link. A few highlights noted below:
THREAD: United States of America v. Stephen K. Bannon, Day 2 — July 20, 2022.
"Court is now in session."
"Gov’t would like to raise that multiple news sources reported last night that this case is politically motivated, per the defense’s opening statement, which is a concern of the gov’t. Gov’t raises issue of bias and noting that the House of Representatives is not a political body."
"Judge will not bar defense from trying to show bias when cross-examining the witnesses. The government wants the defendant to proffer the exact questions he plans to ask regarding bias."
---->>> "Another bulleted point that Amerling is discussing notes that Steve Bannon had communications with Ezra Cohen-Watnick and Kash Patel."
----> "The issue of executive privilege is raised. Since Donald J. Trump held the privilege, the defense argued in the letter that he did not have to comply with the subpoena due to sensitive information. The committee rejected the defense’s privilege."
"Amerling says that since Chairman Thompson signed the subpoena, he has the authority to push the subpoena."
--->>>Government objects and judge overrules, saying he is also interested in hearing this question. The judge says that the witness has only answered portions of the question.
"Amerling says that she participated in the discussion to decide on this date. Corcoran asks who was involved in this discussion as well? Government tries to object and the judge again overruled. More conversation. Government now wants to go on "the husher phone.""
--->> Amerling "cannot recall" what "human" set the dates for Bannon’s subpoena deadlines. Corcoran is asking if there were any deadlines happening that would make the committee "need" to select the dates that it did. She says the committee only has authority through the end of 2022."
>>>> Defense is killing it. Government is pissed. Back under seal for a "side bar" discussion.
