Judge denies Steve Bannon’s request for a new trial after contempt of Congress conviction
A federal judge on Friday rejected Steve Bannon’s request for a new trialfollowing his conviction on contempt of Congress charges, allowing his sentencing to remain on schedule for next month.
U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols said in his ruling that a new trial is only warranted when a “serious miscarriage of justice” might have occurred, but Bannon’s arguments do not demonstrate that.

Bannon’s argument mostly focused on alleged issues in instructions given to the jury, including that his theory of defense was not included in the instructions and that the court defined the meaning of the criminal statute he was accused of violating in the jury instructions.
But Nichols said Bannon did not cite any authority that demonstrates not including the defense theory was an error, and that defining the criminal statute is “precisely” the court’s role.

Nichols also rejected a motion from Bannon to dismiss the case entirely. Bannon argued that not being able to compel certain members of the House to testify violated his constitutional rights.

Nichols said Bannon did not show that any potential testimony from House members would be material to the case.
Bannon was convicted in July on two counts of contempt for refusing to testify before the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection and refusing to turn related documents over to the committee. He is set to be sentenced on Oct. 21.
Bannon did not immediately return a request from The Hill for comment through his attorney.

this opens the door for other republicans who participated to be given the fucking boot...we just have to convict them of it, then we can bar them from holding office, ever again

cancel culture.

That's what MAGA Republicans will say.

Grievance. They will claim grievance because a police officer who defended Congress and our democracy and gave a great sacrifice is calling out those PA police for defiling his service and our country. They will claim offense for being shown to be what they are.

The only cops posing with Trump should be purp walking him at this point, his criminality is beyond doubt for any reasonable person. To stand with him is to stand with a criminal who openly broke the law. Everybody is innocent until proven guilty by a court of law, but we all saw him rob the bank on several occasions, so drawing conclusions is reasonable.
