Will Bannon become yet another political prisoner of the Bide regime?

What did he do to generate such hate from the Lefties?

By exposing the left's anti-American, globalist, anti-Constitution, anti-Christian beliefs - he threatens their power to control and indoctrinate.

Globalists who are pulling the strings don't hate per se, they simply eliminate the opposition by any means possible.

Pray for Steve's protection!

“Of course he’d rather be a doormat for Democrats to wipe their feet on.”

One reason why the prospect of a GOP House majority doesn’t excite every conservative. We’ve seen this show many times.

Oh sure, Trump supporters should have never walked into the Capitol, meanwhile leftist, arsonist, looters, rioters and their ultra corrupt Democrat saboteurs can do whatever the f*** they want. Right!

No it isn't right, but that's how it is in Democrat run cities. It's called situational awareness.

“he did not present a defense”

He pled not guilty. Our legal system is based on the premise a citizen is not guilty until guilt is proven beyond a reasonable doubt. A jury of one’s peers then weighs the evidence and determines guilt.

Apparently the jury was satisfied with the evidence of guilt presented by the prosecution.

“Since the appeal will be based on the evidence presented in Court,”

That’s what I thought, too. Like a cross-examination.

Although, on some true crime stories I’ve seen/read, new evidence can be grounds for a new trial. I know; this isn’t the same. It wouldn’t be new evidence; it existed before. And it wouldn’t be a new trial; it would be an appeal.

Yeah, no. What you saw on the lame stream media and Mayor Bow Wow’s over reaction (locking down DC and entrapping tourists in the various hotel lobbys) did not in any way represent what the vast majority of actual protest attenders experienced that dqy.
Period.

The DOJ elected to not proceed with the referral for Holder. It is really, really, really rare to prosecute. But this time the DOJ did elect to proceed.

He WILL end up a federal felon and he will go to prison.

And by the time he gets out…the world will have moved on.

To my ears, this sounds suspiciously like defending slavery, which I have it on good account is "abhorrent."

Yes, i'm poking a bit of fun, but you do seem a little too cavalier about this corrupt system creating political prisoners.

I'm guessing you are actually outraged, but are expressing stoicism instead.

Trump claimed executive priviledge and he can do that with anyone that worked for him.
