Former Trump adviser and ex-Breitbart editor Steve Bannon joins "Tucker Carlson Tonight" in first interview since court. #foxnews #tucker

Bannon, “Not worried.” Jeez, such toxic masculinity. /s
‘First interview’??? Where was FOX all day? He was on the ‘Charlie Kirk Show’ at noon today, right after he finished hosting the last half-hour of the ‘War Room’...
He told Republicans he could take care of himself, they didn’t need to have his back, they needed to concentrate on wiping the Democrats from the face of the Earth on November 8th.
I embellished a little bit, but that was the spirit of what he said.
21 Oct: Gregg Jarrett: Steve Bannon Has Strong Legal Grounds To Get His J-6 Contempt Conviction Tossed
When Bannon was subpoenaed by the J-6 Committee, Trump’s lawyer sent him a letter stating that the president invoked executive privilege and therefore directed him not to testify. Trump holds the privilege, not Bannon. Under law, Bannon cannot waive it or violate it. So, on advice of his own counsel, Bannon declined to testify. It was the correct advice.
But at trial, Judge Nichols applied the wrong standard on “willful” defiance of a subpoena. He relied on an outdated 61-year-old DC circuit court case (Licavoli v. U.S., 1961) that was based on a Supreme Court decision that was later repudiated by the high court and overturned. The correct standard, as the Supreme Court has since enunciated, is that prosecutors must show that the defendant knew his actions were unlawful. But if a defendant believes his response to the subpoena is lawful, then he cannot be convicted...
It’s nonsensical for prosecutors to claim that executive privilege didn’t apply or that Biden waived his predecessor’s privilege...
Only the president who invokes the privilege holds the privilege and can waive it...

I don’t think that was embellished at all..
“Gregg Jarrett: Steve Bannon Has Strong Legal Grounds To Get His J-6 Contempt Conviction Tossed”
I think Jarrett is living in a fairy tale world.
Bannon heading for jail and any judge, below the SCOTUS that
overturns that conviction will find out real quick what actually happened to Seth Rich.
Or maybe get a visit from a FBI (American Stasi) swat team.
I think Bannon should stipulate that his pronouns are fang-fang and insist they be used by all media
I love Steve Bannon, he’s got guts, he’s brilliant, he takes it to the enemy, and I wish we could clone a billion of him to disperse throughout the fruited plain.
I still don’t get what happened between him and Trump who basically said Bannon was two-faced.
And just to be clear, he’s going to jail for conviction of contempt of court?
Tucker should invite Eric Holder on the show to discuss how Bannon should defend himself.
He ignored a subpoena from a legislative committee that has no constitutional judicial or law enforcement powers.
The three branches of the US feral government are:
The crimes are being committed by the elected officials perverting and abusing their legislative powers.
Boy you got that right!
I also like you screen name which the Left has purposely alienated from the American People's knowledge and understanding along with the Constitution, the Bible, and just about everything that made our nation free, good, and great.
Wonder how many Americans know what our national motto is and what it means (EXACTLY the opposite of Leftist political correctness which I loathe and despise).
I put the period in to make it look like a real name, like F. Murray Abraham or F. Scott Fitzgerald.
It would be cool if you put in your tag line “Our national motto: Out Of Many, One” and a comment how it is the opposite of the Left’s politically-correct identity-politics which divides us us.
