Steve Bannon subpoenas Nancy Pelosi and every member of the House J6 committee in his contempt of Congress case

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Well, not quite. Not in the literal sense. Only the court can issue a subpoena. But as the defendant in the case he is allowed to request subpoenas for pretty much anyone he wants to be able to put on his defense for the case.

This, however, seems like a stunt intended to turn the court into a circus.

You mean just like the circus being held in the January 6th committee hearings?

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

You realize that Bannon subpoena will probably be thrown out because the Constitution under the speech and debate clause

Article 1, section 6, of the U.S. Constitution,

“for any Speech or Debate in either House, they [members] shall not be questioned in any other Place.”

In Gravel v. United States (1972), the Supreme Court extended the speech and debate clause to protect congressional aides, described as “alter egos,” for work in connection with such speeches

That is not a speech or debate, you Canuck mail jockey!

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

The committee is a joke and its soul purpose is to keep Trump from taking back the WH. It will backfire like everything else they have tried for the last six years.

The word is "sole", not "soul".

Oops. Solitary?

Any. Day. Now.

Oh, I'm perfectly willing to concede that the idiot Democrats have a miserable and laughable track record when it comes to dealing with Rump.

Odd thing, though... this time, his own recorded words and texts, and his own people... Ivanka... Barr... and a cast of thousands... are giving-up the goods on him.

But ya'll go right-on-ahead laughing at the prospect... that'll make it all-the-more deliciously hilarious if-and-when the other shoe drops... tick... tick... tick...

i wanna see chris miller ACTING DOD sec, installed just a few days after the election ( makes sense to do that since donny was going to get evicted in just 2 months)

get subpoenaed & testify why he put out a memo specifically ordering the DC national guard to stand down & not do their jobs should violence erupt at the capital ... knowing that something very well could happen.

You need to read the letter you just quoted. It is not what you attempt to imply.
No where in your quoted letter is the phrase 'stand down', or any indication of it at allin fact it is a ROE document.
It is exactly what has been indicated in this and other threads, that Pelosi and the USCP had concerns with the 'optics' of having active military personnel on display in the nations capitol.
You need to read what you post.

the acting DOD said that no NG can be engaged with ANY protester without his express go-ahead. a go ahead he never gave. AND donny - - - who can override any decision never called them in after hours of rioting.

pence's own chief of staff testified under oath to that & nancy peolosi has zero to do with capital security, anymore than turtle boy.
you're outa gas.

You're lying now. The release was rules of engagement, IAW with the dems and Pelosi's concerns on 'optics'.

It all detailed in the press release.

Yet Pelosi and the democrats, including Bowser were all on board refusing having NG troops at the ready, until the shit hit the fan, then it was too late.

donny could override anybody & he didn't, he chose not to. it's been reported that he watched it all unfold live on TV, actually rewinding his 'favorite' parts & couldn't understand why people weren't as thrilled as he was of all his flying monkeys showing all their love. if there's footage of any of it, that is now in the hands of the committee, then he's fini.

tick fucking tock.

Of course, that's exactly what happened. It's not as if Donny was off reading a book somewhere.

The guy got his ass handed to him by 7 million votes before any of this even happened. Video of him cheering on the rioters and the violence against the police will definitely be the end of his political career.

USCP, the dems and Pelosi were all approached several days prior about NG support, they declined. Then when the roof caved in, they all came out screaming, an hour after the building had been breached. By then it was too late. NG showed up later.......they had the options.

Just three days earlier, government leaders had talked about the use of the National Guard. On the afternoon of Jan. 3, as lawmakers were sworn in for the new session of Congress, Miller and Milley gathered with Cabinet members to discuss Jan. 6. They also met with Trump.

In that meeting at the White House, Trump approved the activation of the D.C. National Guard and also told the acting defense secretary to take whatever action needed as events unfolded, according to the information obtained by the AP.

The next day, Jan. 4, the defense officials spoke by phone with Cabinet members, including the acting attorney general, and finalized details of the Guard deployment.

The Guard’s role was limited to traffic intersections and checkpoints around the city, based in part on strict restrictions mandated by district officials. Miller also authorized Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy to deploy, if needed, the D.C. Guard’s emergency reaction force stationed at Joint Base Andrews.

No one said they were, just their previous actions were partly to blame for the lame response on J6.

On the eve of Trump’s rally Jan. 6 near the White House, the first 255 National Guard troops arrived in the district, and Mayor Muriel Bowser confirmed in a letter to the administration that no other military support was needed.

I would love to see a 2 - 3 week hearing during which Pelosi and every Democrat is forced to comply with their subpoenas and have to testify.

That would be frickin' hilarious.

USCP already cited Pelosi and the dems for budget cuts they made to USCP and how it limited their response efforts on J6.
