3 House Votes To Hold Bannon In Contempt Of Congress
It’s official, after a delay in the vote, longtime Trump adviser Steve Bannon is being held in contempt of Congress. The vote by the full House was 229-202. House Democrats crafted the contempt resolution after Bannon defied a subpoena from the committee investigating the January 6th attack on the Capitol. Some committee members think Bannon may have had inside information about what was going to happen on that day. That’s based on the fact that the day before the Capitol Riot, Bannon was on his radio show talking about events set to happen the following day, saying “all hell would break loose.” The resolution will be now referred to the Justice Department. While Republican leaders urged a no vote, calling it a partisan political exercise, nine Republicans ended up voting yes, along with all Democrats.
