2021-10-20 at 4:07 PM UTCUS Capitol riot panel votes to hold Trump ally Bannon in criminal contempt
AFP
Lawmakers investigating the deadly assault on the US Capitol voted unanimously Tuesday to pursue criminal contempt charges for a key ally of former president Donald Trump for refusing to testify.
Former White House advisor Steve Bannon failed to comply with a subpoena to appear before the cross-party January 6 congressional select committee on Thursday last week.
The right-wing political advisor had told the panel he would be withholding testimony and documents until Trump's claim of "executive privilege," which allows presidents to keep certain conversations with aides secret, had been resolved.
But the nine-member committee said Bannon's position was not a lawful basis to ignore the order and voted unanimously to adopt a report setting out the case against him.
"Mr Bannon has no legal right to ignore the committee's lawful subpoena," Representative Liz Cheney, vice chair of the committee and one of only two Republican members, said Tuesday during the vote.
Experts believe Trump's claims that he is entitled to block Bannon giving evidence to investigators are likely baseless, since the presidential "executive privilege" carve-out is not generally understood to apply to former occupants of the White House.
Furthermore, Bannon wasn't even serving in government at the time covered by the subpoena.
The move paves the way for the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives to vote to refer the 67-year-old former White House chief strategist to the Justice Department to consider charges.
"Mr Bannon will comply with our investigation or he will face the consequences," committee chairman Bennie Thompson said Tuesday.
Thompson warned other witnesses against avoiding future subpoenas, saying: "If you are thinking of following the path that Mr Bannon has gone down, you are on notice that this is what you will face."
- Vote Thursday -
The whole chamber will vote on the resolution to hold Bannon in contempt on Thursday, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said Tuesday.
"We must get to the bottom of the January 6 attack," Hoyer said in a statement. "(Bannon) owes it to his country to testify."
If convicted, Bannon would face up to 12 months in prison, but more likely a fine.
The select committee is tasked with investigating the violent mob of Trump supporters that ransacked the US Capitol in Washington on January 6 in an attack that left five people dead.
Congress was in session to verify the November 2020 presidential vote, and hundreds of lawmakers and staffers had to evacuate the area.
The rioters had been egged on by Trump, whose fiery speech earlier that day falsely claiming election fraud was the culmination of months of baseless claims about the presidential contest that he lost fairly to President Joe Biden.
"Mr Trump's privilege arguments do, however, appear to reveal one thing: they suggest that President Trump was personally involved in the planning and execution of January 6, and this committee will get the bottom of that," Cheney said as the committee voted. -

self replicating.
2015. I was driving guys around studying the "Packets" being designed to make 5G a thing and talking with them asking them to explain in more basic understanding for me.
5G wasn't even a thing yet so how did this Music Video from Killing Joke have 5G towers designs in it and how is it he speaks of the virus and Hydra Headed beast.
it's coincidence or predictable programming again? the singer is into occultism. I wonder at what art-fart party he hooked up with some bio-chemist guru all drunk and feeding him ideas for his lyrics? -
2021-10-20 at 9:49 PM UTCJaz Coleman is the singer for Killing Joke.
He is heavily into Occultism and the "Reptile House" sound (Not the band with the same name) that bands like The Cult, Echo and the Bunnymen, Sister of Mercy, The Fix..etc the Goth or Post Punk 80s are all into.
parties are thrown. people of all different backgrounds usually invited so they have their little cocaine fueled cocktail parties (not sure if cocaine is a real thing.. just sounded like something that would be) and this is how musicians can dig deep into heavy subject matters that they can write music about.

And not vote...yeah, that's the ticket!

Why the GOP should take Trump's new blackmail scheme seriously
Seth Masket
In March, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., told Axios’ Jonathan Swan that former President Donald Trump “could make the Republican Party something that nobody else I know can make it,” adding: “He can make it bigger. He can make it stronger. He can make it more diverse. And he also could destroy it.” The interview is honestly a fascinating one. Just two months before, immediately after the Capitol riot, Graham appeared to be done with then-President Trump. “Count me out,” he said, “enough is enough.” Yet here Graham was in March basically conceding that Trump was dangerous but that he didn’t know how to quit him. Trump’s destructive demands and outbursts have continued — just last week, maybe-candidate Trump hinted that he might direct his fans to boycott voting booths — but party leaders like Graham remain loyal.
To be fair, this has been the GOP’s pattern for more than five years now. The party has slowly surrendered its agenda to Trump’s, even as Trump’s agenda has become steadily more dangerous to democracy.
It’s worth noting that the Republican Party went into 2016 with a set of democratic principles. It passed a national platform that looked fairly similar to those of previous cycles, with calls for a limited government, a robust military, reduced business regulation, lower taxes and other long-standing party commitments. And at least up until the spring of 2016, quite a few prominent party members and conservative thought leaders strongly opposed the candidacy of Donald Trump, in no small part because they questioned his commitment to this platform.
Four years later, the party, for the first time in its 166-year history, passed no platform at all. It instead issued a brief memo saying it supported Trump’s re-election and whatever policies went along with that.
But those policy demands turned out to be few and far between. He had strong opinions from the outset about immigration and border walls, but his beliefs in other areas — health care, the social safety net, tax rates, abortion, etc. — were vague and inconsistent, and he often settled on traditional Republican stances and rhetoric.
After President Joe Biden’s victory, however, Trump has been very clear and consistent about what he believes in and what he expects his party to do: overturn the 2020 presidential election. “Either a new election should immediately take place or the past election should be decertified and the Republican candidate declared a winner,” Trump said in a statement Friday.
This isn’t just some idle wish. “If we don't solve the Presidential Election Fraud of 2020 (which we have thoroughly and conclusively documented), Republicans will not be voting in ’22 or ’24,” he threatened last Wednesday. “It is the single most important thing for Republicans to do.”
So is this a realistic threat? Probably. A Washington Post analysis by political scientists Bernard L. Fraga, Zachary Peskowitz and James Szewczyk found that Trump’s questioning of the ballots in Georgia after the November election most likely suppressed Republican turnout in the January runoffs, contributing to Democrats’ picking up two Senate seats and thus control of Congress, albeit by narrow margins.
Trump could do this again. As Graham noted, Trump may not have many concrete policy ideas, but he could seriously damage the party by asking his base to stay home. To quote Frank Herbert’s "Dune,” “The power to destroy a thing is the absolute control over it.” It’s entirely plausible that control of one or both chambers of Congress could come down to just a few narrowly contested seats next year.
It is notable that a relatively normal contest for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination is going on right now. Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Mike Pence and others are visiting early contest states, meeting with prospective donors and endorsers, attending traditional candidate forums and doing the other things that presidential candidates normally do at this stage of the Invisible Primary. They are also trying to figure out what the party believes in. That’s all pretty typical.
What’s not typical is a former president who makes these kinds of demands. Trump is trying to set the agenda for the party by threatening its very existence, and he has determined that the one thing it must stand for is overturning a free and fair election.
It was no small thing for the Republican Party to end up in this position, and it will be no small thing for it to get itself out of it. Assuming Republicans want to be free of this situation and want a relatively normal presidential nomination contest without serious threats of ending democratic elections (and yes, quite a few Republicans still desire this), they will need to collectively push back against Trump and refuse to support his candidacy. Doing that one candidate at a time is sure to fail, as it did in 2016. And collective action hasn’t come easily in the modern GOP.
Nevertheless, for one of the country’s two major parties to commit itself to the destruction of democratic elections is a terrifying thing for the country. -

What a total crock of shit. If this were true, not a single person would ever go to prison insofar as their offense occurred in the past.
Explain that to the grieving mother whose innocent child was murdered as it lay asleep in its crib because of the criminals doing a drive-by shooting into the neighbor's house.
You'll just have to try to find another reason to try to excuse Trump's and the insurrectionist's actions.
