Trump ally Steve Bannon blasts 'lawfare' as he faces New York trial after federal prison stint

NEW YORK -- After spending four months in federal prison for snubbing a congressional subpoena, conservative strategist Steve Bannon had a message Tuesday for prosecutors in cases against him and President-elect Donald Trump.

“You wait. The hunted are about to become the hunters,” Bannon said outside a New York court where he's now facing a state conspiracy trial as soon as next month.

He stepped into a waiting car without elaborating on what “the hunters” intend to do.

The longtime Trump ally's latest trial is set to start Dec. 9 — but could be postponed after a hearing Monday — at the same Manhattan courthouse where the past-and-next president was convicted in his hush money case. Separately, a judge Tuesday delayed a key ruling in the hush money case for at least a week as prosecutors ponder how to proceed in light of Trump's impending presidency.

Bannon cast Trump's election win as a “verdict on all this lawfare.” Voters, he said, “rejected what’s going on in this court.”

Thrse people need to feel a little of the harassment that they have been dishing out for 4+ years, but I suspect much like not going after Hillary DJT will call off the dogs.

New York is Trump’s Tar Baby. It can do whatever it wants and Trump will hug it tight. Melania wants to retire to New York City, not Florida.

This is unfortunate because the Lefties in New York know this.

Hochul needs to be told that federal money going to NYS is in jeopardy if they don’t do something about all this ridiculous lawfare.

These lawfare pigs, starting with Elfin Bragg and Morticia James and going down to Judges Endmoron and MoreScsm, need to be charged themselves.

It’s funny as when she took over Andrew Cuomo’s place as NY Governor, she appeared to be way more moderate than he was. Well, she’s just as far left as he was.

He can’t pardon him because it’s a state crime. I’d watch how states go after people the next four years since they can’t be pardoned. I think it will be ugly.

Conspiracy for what or to what? Live? Breathe?

The Sec Def nominee is disappointing. I am hoping the AG is much better and blood thirsty.

She’s not worried. A lefty judge will stop it like they did in trumps first term.

The following year, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and New York Attorney General Letitia James revived the case in state court

This should be the story lead in any newspaper that isn't a propaganda rag. Alvin Bragg and Letitia James are using their offices to politically persecute the Democratic Party's enemies and no one is stopping them.
