The DOJ wanted 6 months and a $200k fine for Steve Bannon, but got 4 months and a $6,500 fine.
Bannon was found guilty of contempt of Congress in July after he ignored a subpoena from the House Jan 6th Committee.
“I want to say one thing — I respect the judge, the sentence he came down with today is his decision. I’ve been totally respectful to this entire process on the legal side,” – Bannon
Bannon was released pending appeal. If an appeal is not made, Bannon must surrender voluntarily by Nov. 15.
“I want to thank all you guys for coming, Remember this illegitimate regime, their judgment day is on the eighth of November when the Biden administration ends. I want to thank you all for coming. And remember, take down the CCP. Thank you.” – Bannon
“From the moment that the Defendant, Stephen K. Bannon, accepted service of a subpoena from the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol, he has pursued a bad-faith strategy of defiance and contempt,” – federal prosecutors
“The Committee sought documents and testimony from the Defendant relevant to a matter of national importance: the circumstances that led to a violent attack on the Capitol and disruption of the peaceful transfer of power. In response, the Defendant flouted the Committee’s authority and ignored the subpoena’s demands.” – federal prosecutors
