What time does Bannon go before the Judge?

I suppose he is ready for an appeal?

The really good criminals know how to use our justice system to their advantage.

He truly believes himself above the law.

4. Looks like he had ascites! n/t

The penalty for contempt of congress needs be a whole lot steeper!

[kentuck]

5. If there was a penalty for extreme contempt...

He would be guilty. He mocked them and gave them nothing but contempt.

9. Maybe from alcohol consumption

6. Here is the punishment he is facing.

The criminal offense of contempt of Congress sets the penalty at not less than one month nor more than twelve months in jail and a fine of not more than $100,000 or less than $100.

8. Scumbag of the first order.

Makes Chuck Colson and Ollie North look like choirboys. Not holding my breath, but hoping some consequences are handed down.

10. Wouldn't it be great if he was found guilty on Thursday before the next hearing

[kentuck]

11. Well, as his attorney already stated...

He doesn't have much of a defense.

12. Yes! And, put in solitary too!

I want to know who’s been funding him!

13. Party at my place! 🎉
