Steve Bannon, Donald Trump's former controversial strategist, is accused of insulting the American Congress by the commission that investigates the events that took place on January 6, namely the assault on Capitol Hill by the former president's fans.
The House vote on the January 6 commission motion is likely to take place tomorrow, and Bannon is accused of contempt of Congress for refusing to testify before the US House commission investigating the facts.
The fact that Bannon and Trump claim executive privilege "seems to reveal only one thing," which is that "Trump was personally involved in the planning and execution of January 6," explains Liz Cheney, the Republican vice president of the commission on January 6.
Cheney then turned to her Republican colleagues in Congress: "You know there is no evidence of electoral fraud that can reverse the outcome of the vote. You know this accusation is false," he says referring to the words Trump has been repeating for months. , that is, that he was defeated in the elections due to fraud.
