Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) said Friday hopes that Steve Bannon’s indictment for failing to comply with the committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol sends a “chilling message."

A federal grand jury indicted one-time White House adviser to former President Trump on Friday for two charges of contempt of Congress for failing to appear for an Oct. 14 deposition before the panel and for refusing to provide documents.

The chilling message is that the people who promote the HOAX insurrection make the biggest case for a REAL insurrection.

For once, Kinzinger is honest here.

Kinzinger and Cheney are both auditioning for gigs on CNN or MSNBC after they’re kicked to curb, each trying out the most audacious bullshit they can think up to spew as CNN’s or MSNBC’s new “conservative” commentator(s) ...

It always hurts much more when a supposed-friend or family member stabs you in the back

than when an OUTSIDE enemy does it

-- Usually the opposition party selects their members. --

In typical misleading/lying fashion, the committee is referred to as bipartisan. Well, that depends on how "bipartisan" is defined.

Every member of this committee was selected by the Democrats. The formation of the committee is afoul of house rules on committee formation. In that sense, at least (and too in substance and bias), the committee is illegitimate. The only people who will accept the results are Democrats and GOP dissidents, like Cheney.

A political junta. Fitting for our banana republic.

In most banana republics, the opposition gets agitated. No so in ours, The party is opposition, isn't much in opposition.

Where does it say in the US Constitution that Americans are subjects of Congress and are subject to its subpoenas?

Do you think that Bannon’s entire show was pre-recorded today or just the part when he was interviewing the woman trying to raise money to help the 1-6 prisoners in DC? She referred to “yesterday on Veterans Day” which meant that she was talking to Bannon on Friday. Today is Saturday.

Bannon is both smart and tough but he knows that Dems play dirty. This is the first indictment by a grand jury for contempt of Congress in more than 40 years.

Maris hopes that the indictment of Sussman sends a “chilling message.”

Oh, Adam, it does.

It sends the message that our government picks one group to prosecute and ignores others, just like any totalitarian state.

It sends the message that any association with Donald Trump -- including, probably, voting for him -- is enough for the full weight of the Federal Leviathon to come down on a person, just like any totalitarian state.

And it also sends the message that you are 100% okay with the totalitarianism.

Bannon will get the last laugh.

Keep all your documents Kinzinger. You and Cheney (and all the other coup plotters) are going to be put on trial in 2022. You are going to pay the price for your treachery. The maximum penalty is death.

I never thought I’d be grateful to the Democrats for anything, but redistricting Kinzinger out of Congress definitely qualifies.

Steve Bannon, just like Roger Stonee, did nothing.

I imagine somebody just might think this senator’s house might just need some renovations.

I think most of his “specials” played on the weekends are pre-recorded.

It might, if it was enacted fairly and equally, but when the DOJ decides to pick and choose the individuals who have rejected subpoenas to appear in front of Congress, based on politics, well then, they make a laughing stock of themselves.
