[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8920177, member: 683408"] Yet another Trump supporter given the free pass. [ATTACH type="full" width="495px"]70570[/ATTACH] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/justice-department-moves-dismiss-steve-bannons-criminal-case-rcna258243[/URL] The Justice Department on Monday moved to dismiss its long-running criminal case against Steve Bannon, tied to his refusal to testify before the congressional committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. Bannon, a longtime ally of President Donald Trump, was convicted in 2022 on two counts of contempt of Congress for refusing to appear for a deposition before the House committee that investigated the insurrection and declining to produce documents requested by the committee. Bannon served four months in federal prison in 2024. The Justice Department wrote in its unopposed motion Monday to dismiss the case: “The government has determined in its prosecutorial discretion that dismissal of this criminal case is in the interests of justice.” I'm sure the MAGATs will cry just as loudly about Bannon's contempt of court, as they are crying about Clinton's. Maybe someone will send me links to those complaints. [/QUOTE]
