The Department of Justice is recommending that former Trump advisor and War Room host Steve Bannon be sentenced to six months in prison and a $200,000 fine for defying the January 6 Committee.

Bannon was convicted of contempt of Congress in July for refusing to comply with a subpoena from the committee.

Anti-Trump neocon Liz Cheney and Democrat Rep. Bennie G. Thompson, chairs of the committee, had celebrated Bannon’s conviction in a joint statement after he was found guilty.

Probably not for the duration of his incarceration. But you do have people that will step up to fill the gap.

I still don’t get why an elected body can hold a private citizen to criminal charges. I’m Canadian so it would be like dragging some poor fool before Parliament and demanding answers.

Which mean that the DOJ, FBI, Pentagon, State, etc., etc., need to be seriously purged after President Trump is reelected. That is, after the groundwork is set by a strongly Republican congress.

Given the almost impossible ability to fire/purge career employees, it will require changing civil service regulations.

There’s a surprise. The DOJ has been politically weaponized like the IRS was under Obama. Completely unacceptable

Partner, this is unacceptable!!!!!!!!

I hope that Pelousy pays for her treachery.

What does Chaney stand for. Chaney is one disgusting piece of work.

Every dept of the government has been bastardized and forever non trustworthy.

Those men in those depts ... do they know they have forever destroyed part of government... because they thought they WERE the law and abused it to the end of time.

That’s what happens when they give their conscience of right and wrong to the pit.. and let evil prevail.

Note the administration of the law is not always fair and those administering the legal process (law enforcement officials, judges, prosecutors) have considerable administrative discretion in determining who to prosecute and on what charges.
Selective enforcement of the law by some states and the federal government has gone well past "discretion" and is now arbitrary. Near impossible to prove in court, but its happening in fact.
