Panel to Seek Criminal Charges Against Steve Bannon

“Trump ally Steve Bannon failed to show up for a deposition before the Jan. 6 select committee on Thursday, paving the way for the House panel to seek criminal charges against him for defying a congressional subpoena,” Axios reports.

“It’s the first major test for how the committee will respond to witnesses’ refusal to cooperate, an obstacle that stalled countless Democratic investigations during the Trump era by triggering protracted legal battles.”
