Jan. 6 Committee To Seek Criminal Charges Against Steve Bannon

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack will move forward with criminal charges against Steve Bannon, an adviser to former President Donald Trump who is openly defying a subpoena, committee chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson announced Thursday. Three other Trump associates faced subpoena deadlines last week: former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, former Defense Department official Kash Patel and former White House social media chief Dan Scavino. “Because service of Mr. Scavino’s subpoena was delayed, the select committee has postponed his scheduled deposition.” A fourth Trump associate, former Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark, was issued a subpoena Wednesday. Thompson said Thursday that he plans to use “every tool” at his disposal to obtain information on the Jan. 6 attack, and that “witnesses who try to stonewall the Select Committee will not succeed.” “We’re grateful to the many individuals who are voluntarily participating and to witnesses who are complying with subpoenas, including several who met the deadline to begin producing materials,” he said.
